⚠️ Risk

null The front wheel is too small and could easily get stuck in holes in the ground while a child is riding, causing the child to fall and suffer injuries. In addition, the diameter of the handlebar ends is too small. If a child falls on them, this may cause injuries. Finally, there are accessible gaps between moving parts, which may cause entrapment of fingers while folding the scooter. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive and the relevant European standard EN 71-1.
