Lidl issues urgent recall warning for a children's toy with a serious injury risk

Food and product recalls are not often issued but they should be taken seriously.

Lidl has shared a warning for its Playtive 3-in-1 Swing.

Some batches of the product have a fault which means they can tilt and potentially be dangerous.

A Lidl statement read: "Lidl GB is recalling the above-mentioned product due to a manufacturing fault. The swing seat could tilt when in use which may cause injury.

"If you have bought the above product, we advise you to stop using it."

All stock with IAN code 388000_2104 is affected and this number can be found on the back of the backrest.

Anyone who has bought this product can return it to stores for a full refund.

No other Playtive products in Lidl GB stores are impacted by the recall.

The budget supermarket also has an ongoing recall for a mayonnaise product due to the possible contamination of listeria monocytogenes.

A recall warning was issued for Potts' Truffle mayonnaise, in the pack size 230g.
