Requirements breached
The adjustment mechanism of the swing is not sufficiently resistant and it may collapse, causing the child to fall from the swing and suffer injuries. In addition, the rope to which the swing is attached is too thin, which could cause the child to fall and suffer injuries. The warning and instructions are not adequate and this may lead to incorrect installation of the swing. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive and the relevant European standard EN 71-8.
