Kick scooter

Requirements breached

Small bits of the stickers fixed to the scooter can easily detach. A small child may put them in the mouth and choke on them. Moreover, the inner package of the toy is a plastic bag which is too thin: if a child plays with it and puts the head inside the bag, this may easily cling to the mouth and nose causing suffocation. In addition, the connection between steering tube and front wheel is not strong enough and the scooter collapses easily, causing the child to lose its balance and fall and get injured. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive and with the relevant European standard EN 71-1.
