An Asda product has been recalled from all stores across the UK, and anyone who has purchased it have urged to “stop using it immediately”.
The supermarket giant has pulled the product from its stores and is asking anyone who owns it to return it to a store for a full refund.
The Office for Product Safety and Standards warned that the Hapello Sensory Roller sold by Asda presents a “high risk of choking”.
The batch code for the affected toys is #36, and they have a barcode number of 5063089161708.

The products were sold in Asda supermarkets across the UK from August 2023 until they were pulled from shelves this month.
A warning from The Office for Product Safety and Standards says: “The product presents a high risk of choking due to the potential release of a small piece of plastic lodged in the toy during the manufacturing process.
“If a young child accessed this small piece of plastic, they may put it in their mouth and choke.
"The affected batch of the product does not meet the requirements of the Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011.
"The product has been recalled from end users by Asda."
