Risk
The functional non-detachable cords in the neck area can become trapped during various activities of a child, leading to strangulation. In addition, the non-permeable plastic bag of the product is too thin. If a child plays with the bag, the plastic can cover the mouth and nose, causing the child to suffocate.
