What to do now
B-Row B-Mart Three Pipe Inflatable Water Hammock could contribute to drowning.
- Stop using it in or near water.
- Always stay within arm’s reach of a child in water.
- Because the product was found unsafe on an online marketplace, use the platform’s order page to contact the seller.
- If you cannot reach the seller, Trading Standards can be told through Citizens Advice.
Why it matters. Drowning is fast and silent. Bath seats, inflatables and swim aids can give a false sense of security.
Getting your money back
A product safety report usually means the product was bought online and the marketplace has removed the listing. Ask the seller for a refund through the platform where you bought it; many marketplaces have their own buyer protection.
If you paid by credit card and it cost over £100, Section 75 may apply; otherwise your bank may be able to raise a chargeback.
