MarHome · Decorative cherries

The product poses a risk of choking because the product resembles cherries which fit into the small-parts cylinder. It can be expected that consumers, especially small children, may confuse it with food and place the imitation cherries in their mouths. The product does not comply with the Directive 87/357/EEC on products which, appearing to be other than they are, endanger the health or safety of consumers.
