What to do now

Parts of LED Projection Toy sold on AliExpress can get hot enough to burn, or hot liquid could escape.

  1. Stop using it and let it cool fully before you handle it.
  2. Put it where children cannot get to it.
  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. If you cannot reach the seller, Trading Standards can be told through Citizens Advice.

Why it matters. Burns from appliances and heating products are common, and children are the most likely to be hurt.

Look out for

  • for a burn: cool it under cool or lukewarm running water for 20 minutes and cover it loosely with cling film

Get help urgently

  • large or deep burns, burns on the face, hands or genitals, or any burn on a child — go to A&E or call 999

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.
