What happened

This recall involves an electronic toy kitchen set sold under the HONG CHANG brand (Model Code n° 011) with approximate dimensions of 60 cm x 58.5 cm x 31.5 cm. The kitchen includes 22 accessories and produces noise and light when buttons are pushed and the oven door is opened. The product is packaged in a transparent plastic bag inside a red and green cardboard box labeled "Ages 3+" with a CE mark.

The plastic bag used to package this product poses a suffocation hazard because it is thinner than required by safety standards. The bag's thickness is below the 0.038 mm minimum limit set by European regulations, making it unsafe for consumers. The product does not comply with the Toys Directive and the relevant European standard EN 71. Authorities have ordered the product withdrawn from the market. The record does not specify what remedy is available to consumers who have already purchased this product.
