Risk Description

Small parts of the toy can easily detach (e.g. the handle of the doll's soother and the heart securing the handle). Small children may put them in the mouth and choke. The battery cover is also easily removable, giving access to button batteries which could be swallowed by children and cause damage to the gastrointestinal tract or choking.Moreover, the safety lock of the pushchair is not sufficiently strong and can release if the pushchair is loaded, causing it to collapse. This may cause injuries to children playing with the toy and their fingers could be trapped between moving parts as it collapses. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive and the relevant European standards EN 71-1, EN 62115.
