ALERT: Strangulation risk prompts immediate recall of children's toy slide
Irish parents who bought the slide are being urged to 'please discontinue use immediately'
A major safety issue has been identified with a toy slide sold on the Amazon platform.
According to the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC), the product presents a risk of strangulation as it contains a basketball net which is greater than the permissible limit.
A child's head and neck may get caught in the net and they may be unable to free themselves, presenting a strangulation hazard.
The Amazon ASIN is B0C2GSTP3Z, and the bar code is X001RGAKIV.
There are approximately 2 affected products in the Republic of Ireland.
If you purchased one of these products please discontinue use immediately and keep away from children.
You may wish to contact Amazon to see if there are any remedies available to you. This can be done via your user account on Amazon.
