EU Safety GateSerious riskSuffocationFeb 20, 2009

Hazard

The product poses a risk of suffocation because the suction cup with chain can be easily detached by a force of 36 N. The detached parts fully fit into the small parts cylinder. As children often put suction cups into their mouths to moisten the cups before sticking them on a surface, there is a risk that the small part falls into the mouth and blocks the airways causing asphyxiation. The product does not comply with the Toys Directive and the relevant European standard EN 71.

Measures taken

  • Voluntary withdrawal from the market and recall from consumers by the distributor — Other

Product description
