Hazard

This product poses a risk of injuries and suffocation because:- it has four wheels that did not lock when tested (this requirement is intended to prevent a child inadvertently pushing the crib when a baby is inside it);- the average thickness of a packaging was 0.027 mm while the minimum required thickness is 0.038 mm (risk of suffocation);- there are no instructions in Portuguese;- there is no warning "Warning: do not use when child is able to sit, kneel or stand up unaided", which is intended to prevent the risk of falls, since cribs are usually designed for very small children and are not safe for children who can stand up or climb out, as they may topple over.This product does not comply with the relevant European standard.
