⚠️ Risk
The product poses a risk of injuries and suffocation because:- the 4 spring clips used to support the base are not protected against corrosion,- the slots in the corner posts are between 5mm & 12mm and more than 10mm deep. A gap between 5mm & 12mm exists between the lower side rails and the base rails on all 4 sides,- a gap between 25mm & 45mm exists between the corner posts and their adjacent dowels,- the folding mechanism requires 2 consecutive actions to release, the first fails to require 50N to release, - the minimum internal height from the top of the corner post (highest point on which a child can stand) to the top rail, is less than 600mm- when in the elevated position, one of the spring clips deform allowing the base to collapse. With the base in the lowest position, 2 of the support brackets detach allowing the base to collapse when impacted at the centre end location,- it is not marked with the maximum weight of child to use the playpen.
