Description
Plastic toy “FUNNY” in shape of a tortoise
Risk
The product poses a risk of choking because the plastic fastener that is attached to the net can create small parts and there is no warning to remove the plastic fastener before giving the toy to a child. Although the label includes a warning that “the toy is not suitable for children under 36 months”, the toy is apparently suitable for children at all ages. This product does not comply with the Toys Directive and the Toys Standard.
