Hazard

The detachable garment fastener was identified as being small enough to get stuck in a child’s mouth and therefore poses a risk of choking to the young user. The product also presents a risk of strangulation as the length of the strap was found to exceed the specified maximum of 220mm. Some of the required documentation and markings were not present. The product does not meet the requirements of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005.
