Is this really a concern?

I was looking at zulily today and saw that they had some toy vacuums on there. We have a friend's kid's bday coming up and he would love something like that. Anyway, I went to amazon to read reviews. This was the first one I saw:

I bought this for my little guy who has a vacuum obsession right now. This product is pretty much as advertised. The vacuum actually works as advertised and (Good and bad) has very light/low suction. My main worry buying this was that the suction would be high enough that if he (my son) put it on his eye, and it formed a seal, that it would hurt him. No worries there. The vacuum will actually suck up tiny Styrofoam beads, but nothing more than that. The vacuum doesn't actually come with the aforementioned tiny Styrofoam beads, probably because they would be dangerous. : P

Not too noisy, not to flimsy, made my son happy... nice product.

Are people really worried about a vac sucking out their kid's eye? Here's the vac I was looking at: www.amazon.com/CASDON-580-Little-Henry-Vacuum/dp/B0009HCNX6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1395149000&sr=8-1&keywords=henry+kids+vacuum

It sounds like that person may have an anxiety problem.

What? How bizarre. I mean, obvious you don't want a toy vacuum to have so much suction that it's a safety concern. But the EYE? Weird. Styrofoam beads? Crazy.

Wow.

I don't know I would have thought of anything as morbid as a vacuum sucking out my kid's eyeball.

if I had known that there were child sized versions of cleaning tools, I would have had kids a long time ago

I don't know. Maybe? My friend regularly turned her kid loose with it in the kitchen because he just loved to vacuum, so she figured she may exploit that to the fullest extent while it lasted. So far, he still has both of his eyes.

Be honest. Do your sons look like this:

Best part of kids so far. Clearly. It will probably only be replaced when they get rich and I don't have to work anymore.
