⚠️ Risk

The product poses a risk of suffocation because the plastic bag which is located inside the packing (with perimeter more than 380 mm) is less than 0.038 mm thick - which is the minimum limit permitted. Plastic bags which are not sufficiently thick pose a serious risk of suffocation. The product does not comply with the Toys Directive and the relevant European standard EN 71.
