UK Regulator Recalls John Lewis Wooden Roast Dinner Toy Over Choking Risk

Regulators found the toy’s Velcro fastening can detach during normal play, breaching UK safety rules.

Overview

  • The Office for Product Safety & Standards ordered the toy recalled and told customers to stop using it immediately and keep it away from young children.
  • The risk stems from hook-and-loop pieces that can detach and become small parts that pose a choking hazard to children under 36 months.
  • The product does not meet the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011, according to the official notice.
  • Customers can return the item to John Lewis for a full refund, with the affected product identified as code 75610228.
  • Local Trading Standards report the set was sold from September 3 to November 24, 2025, was manufactured in China, and the recall comes alongside other recent UK toy withdrawals for choking risks reported at Sainsbury’s/Argos and Orchard Toys.
