Hazard

The products present a risk of choking as it has been identified that the red pom poms can easily detach and form a small part capable of fitting inside of a small parts cylinder. The product is deemed to be child appealing therefore, if the child were to pull on the pom pom and cause it to detach, the child may place the small part in their mouth and choke. The product does not meet the requirements of the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011.
