The Ministry of Economy in cooperation with Ikea UAE is recalling the Blavingad Fishing Game over concerns that it could be a choking hazard and has advised customers to stop using it.
The Ministry has so far withdrawn 588 toys of Blavingad Fishing Game Multicolour ME from the country’s markets.
Ikea attributed the act to that small rivets of the toy can come loose, which may present a choking hazard, especially to younger children.
No such incident has been reported, the Ministry confirmed. The toy can be returned to any Ikea store for a full refund without a receipt.
