What was recalled

Baby floats designed to resemble toys, animals, cartoon characters, inflatable play items, ride-on toys, novelty products, or other entertainment-oriented products. This includes floats with playful shapes, animal heads, decorative elements, or designs that may cause the product to be perceived as a toy rather than a safety-sensitive water product.

Why it was recalled

The products present a risk of drowning as toy-like designs may mislead consumers into treating the product as a play item rather than a flotation-related product requiring constant adult supervision. This may increase the risk of misuse, overreliance on the product, reduced caregiver vigilance, unsafe play behaviour, instability, tipping, entrapment, or drowning.

The products do not meet the requirements of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005.

What to do

The products have been recalled from end users by TikTok and the listings have been removed.

We recommend that consumers stop using the recalled products immediately and keep them out of reach of children. Contact the distributor you purchased from to request redress.
