Requirements breached
The swing poses a risk of injuries to the heads of children because the impact force from the swing is too high and the swing may hit the head of the child that has fallen off. In addition, no shock-absorbing material has been affixed to the metal footrests, which may lead to injuries when the footrests of the swing strike the child. The product does not comply with the relevant European standard EN 1176.
