Requirements breached
The eye of the bear comes loose under a low force and, as a consequence, the stuffing of expanded polystyrene beads comes out. The eye and the beads are thus easily accessible for a child who could put them in his/her mouth causing obstruction of the airways. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive and the relevant European standard EN 71-1.
