Baby basket “Moses” made of vegetable fibers has been withdrawn from the market and by consumers due to instability and the risk of the child falling, which can lead to various injuries. The basket does not meet the requirements of the General Product Safety Directive, as well as the European standard EN 1466. It is a curious fact that the product is manufactured in Belgium – the seat of the European institutions that forge the standards and regulations and for the safety of goods in the European Community , reported by the online platform “We, the users”.
A children’s swing, Swing type, which can easily break and crumble into small pieces, is also prohibited for sale.
The risks are that the child may break to fall and get hurt. When placing the crushed parts in the mouth, it can lead to choking. There is also a risk a small child’s head or neck getting caught in openings in the cradlewhich could create a suffocation hazard. The product barcode is: 3830064567976.
A recall from the market and from consumers has also been ordered for dangerous trampoline with basketball hoop from the Berg Toys BV brand
When jumping on it there is risk of head injury upon collision with the basket. If some textile parts of the hoop break, the jumper can become entangled, resulting in injury or strangulation. Using a ball on a trampoline can increase the risk of injury.
A Hasagei rubber bicycle handle sold through Amazon has also been banned after it was spotted by Swedish inspectors and subjected to laboratory tests. Tests have found in the plastic parts of the product an excessive concentration of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which scientists have proven can cause cancer. Therefore, the conclusions are that it does not comply with the REACH regulation and an order has been issued for its withdrawal from the market.
Also banned is an electric sleep mask – brand Enjoying and model number BT-FAAH, which was also sold online.
The problem with it is that the solders have an excessive content of lead and cadmium, respectively – up to 76.7% and 0.32% by weight. The plastic material of the cable has excessive concentrations of bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP), lead, etc.
