What to do now

The risk with Disney Princess Minnie Mouse Kitchenware Set Toolbox is choking: a part can detach and fits inside a child’s airway.

  1. Remove it from the toy box or cot straight away.
  2. Check the floor and play areas for any parts that have already come off.
  3. This is a safety report rather than a manufacturer recall: the listing has been taken down, but the seller may not contact you. Get in touch with the seller through the marketplace.
  4. Report it to Trading Standards through the Citizens Advice consumer service if the seller does not respond.

Why it matters. Children under three put things in their mouths. Anything small enough to fit through a toilet-roll tube is a choking hazard for them.

If someone has been hurt

Look out for

  • coughing, gagging or noisy breathing after playing with it

Get help urgently

  • a child who cannot breathe, cough or cry — call 999 and follow the call handler’s instructions

This is general information based on NHS public guidance, not medical advice. In an emergency call 999. For urgent advice use NHS 111 (NHS 24 on 111 in Scotland) or, in Northern Ireland, your GP or out-of-hours service.

Getting your money back

Contact the seller through your order history and say that the product is the subject of an OPSS safety report. Keep screenshots of the listing and your order.

If the seller does not respond, the marketplace’s own dispute process or your card provider is the next step.
