  • UPC 5900851234621

What happened

This pull-along toy is a spider with eight wheels connected by a cord ending in a small ring handle. The toy's legs wobble and rotate while moving, causing rattles in the legs beneath transparent plastic cups to emit noise. The product is marked with a CE mark, importer name and address, "Made in China," and an EAN number, along with a warning about swallowing small parts.

The toy poses choking and suffocation risks because the ring handle can be easily detached and fits into the small parts cylinder, and because the cord measures 375 mm when safety standards require it to be no longer than 220 mm. The product does not comply with the Toys Directive and European standard EN 71. The importer has voluntarily withdrawn the product from the market. The recall notice does not specify what affected consumers should do regarding their purchase.
