Product Safety Report: Appease Toys for Baby Plush Elephant Baby Tissue Box (2305

Product Safety Report for Plush Elephant Baby Tissue Box presenting a serious risk of choking.

Product: Appease Toys for Baby Plush Elephant Baby Tissue Box

Hazard: The product presents a serious risk of choking due to easily detachable small parts.

Corrective action: The import has been rejected at the border.

The metal zip on the underside of the product can detach at a low force and constitutes a small part. The product therefore poses a potential choking hazard to children under 36 months, who may place the detached part in their mouth and choke. The flexible plastic bag used for packaging also does not meet the minimum thickness required and therefore presents an asphyxiation hazard.

The product does not meet the requirements of the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011.

The import has been rejected at the border.
