Product
Blue yo-yo ball with flashing unit
Brand
Unknown
Type / model
T-10-486
Risk
The product poses a serious risk of suffocation because the cord of the yo-yo ball is very elastic. During the test with a force of 12,4 N the cord of 120 mm stretched to 1210 mm. In addition, a child’s finger may jam into the loop of the cord. Due to these two faults the yo-yo ball may snake to the neck of the child and strangle him while playing with it. The product does not comply with the Toys Directive.
