Hazard

The product presents a serious risk of choking as it is described as suitable for ages 1 to 5 but has small parts. When screen tested, a knob switch on the wooden board detached at low force. This knob, as well as the ignition key provided, both fit entirely inside of a small parts cylinder, meaning that if a child were to place these small parts in their mouth, it could cause them to choke. The product does not meet the requirements of the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011.

Remedy

The import has been rejected at the border. The listing has been removed by the online marketplace (Amazon).
