Hazard

This product presents a high risk of choking as the eyes are easily detachable and are able to fit in the truncated cylinder, creating a potential choking hazard. If the small plastic eyes were to detach from the bear, the child could place them in their mouth and choke. The cords on the hoodie also have the potential to tangle and are excessively long, presenting a risk of strangulation.

This product does not meet the requirements of The Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011.
