The rate of nickel release is too high (measured value up to 49.7 µg/cm²/week). Nickel is a strong sensitiser and causes allergic reactions if present in articles that come into direct and prolonged contact with the skin. The product does not comply with the REACH Regulation.
The plastic material of the product has an excessive concentration of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) (measured value: 11.5% by weight). Moreover, the product has an excessive concentration of short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) (measured value: 1.94% by weight). This phthalate may harm the health by causing possible damage to the reproductive system. SCCPs persist in the environment, are toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations and bio-accumulate in wildlife and humans, posing a risk to human health and the environment. The product does not comply with the REACH Regulation nor with the Persistent Organic Pollutants (POP) Regulation.
The plastic material of the product has an excessive concentration of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and dibutyl phthalate (DBP) (measured values:0.28 % and 0.19 % by weight, respectively). These phthalates may harm the health of children, causing possible damage to their reproductive system. These phthalates may harm the health by causing possible damage to the reproductive system. The product does not comply with the REACH Regulation.
The plastic window inside the wallet contains excessive amounts of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and Diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP) (measured values: 2,25% and 0.13% by weight, respectively). In addition, the plastic inside the wallet contains an excessive amount of short-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) (measured up to 0.58 % by weight). SCCPs persist in the environment, are toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations and bio-accumulate in wildlife and humans, posing a risk to human health and the environment. The product does not comply with the REACH Regulation nor with the Persistent Organic Pollutants (POP) Regulation.
The PVC material of the product has an excessive amount of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) measured value up to 3.97% by weight). DEHP may harm the health by causing possible damage to the reproductive system. The product does not comply with the REACH Regulation.
The migration of boron from the toy slime is too high (measured value up to 1108 mg/kg). Ingestion or contact with an excessive quantity of boron may harm the health of children by damaging their reproductive system. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive.
The toy has small parts (the eyes) that can easily detach. Small children may put them in the mouth and choke. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive nor with the European standard EN 71-1.
The toy has small parts (eyes) that can easily detach. Small children may put them in the mouth and choke. Moreover, the fibrous stuffing material of the toy is easily accessible. A small child could put them in the mouth and choke. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive nor with the European standard EN 71-1.
The product expands more than 50% in size when in contact with water. If a child puts the product in the mouth or swallows it, contact with saliva or stomach liquids will cause the product to expand, which can result in occlusion of the respiratory tract or intestinal blockage. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive.
The machine does not have the required protection , which can lead users to be unintentionally exposed to radiation and consequently suffer damage to their health. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Machinery Directive nor with the European standards EN 60825-1 and EN 60825-4.
The retro-reflective material does not have the required reflectance values and the user is not adequately visible in situations where high visibility is essential. This can lead to injuries. The product does not comply with the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Regulation nor with the European standard EN 20471.
The plastic material of the product has an excessive concentration of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) (measured value: 14% by weight). This phthalate may harm the health by causing possible damage to the reproductive system. The product does not comply with the REACH Regulation.

The rubber of the soother’s teat can easily detach. A small child could put it in the mouth and choke. The product does not comply with the General Product Safety Regulation nor with the European standard EN 1400.
The cable is not properly anchored, and the accessible wires have inadequate insulation. Additionally, the plug dimensions do not meet the required specifications. Furthermore, the product is not protected against moisture, despite being recommended for outdoor use. Consequently, the user could touch accessible live parts or the water could penetrate the product and cause an electric shock. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive nor with the European standard EN 60598.
The product has an excessive concentration of methanol (measured value: 1.46% by weight). Methanol is acutely toxic to the central nervous system and to the eyes. Ingestion of methanol can lead to blindness or death. The product does not comply with the REACH Regulation.
The plug has no fuse, and the plug face does not meet the dimensional requirements. A correctly rated fuse is required to ensure the safe operation of the plug under fault conditions, and its absence could lead to the plug overheating and/or exploding, leading to fire. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive.
The product has accessible live parts (fingers can be inserted through the grille) and the electrical components do not provide sufficient protection against contact. Consequently, the user could touch accessible live parts, leading to a risk of electric shock. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Directive nor with the European standard EN 60335-2.
