Hazard

The product presents a high risk of choking as the zip puller detached during a 90-newton tension test and was found to fit wholly within a small parts cylinder indicating that it poses a choking hazard to young children. The inner seams did not withstand a 70-newton seam strength test and gave access to the filling material. The product does not meet the requirements of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005
