ALERT: Potential choking risk prompts recall of children's drinking bottles sold in Ireland

Children's water bottles are being recalled due to the risk of a choking hazard. 

According to the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC), Tractor Ted is carrying out the recall of Tractor Ted Water Bottle and Digger Water Bottle due to the chance of a defect in the spout. 

This may result in small parts breaking off, which may be placed in the mouth and swallowed, causing a young child to choke.  

The batch number of the recalled products is JM1529 and the SKU’s are WATBOTDIG and WATBOTFM.

There are approximately 32 affected products in the Republic of Ireland.

If you purchased one of these products after 1st September 2022, please discontinue use immediately and keep it out of the reach of children.
