Parents are being warned to 'immediately' stop using three John Lewis baby products - for fears their tots could 'choke' or be sent flying when a pram's wheels come off.
The British department store issued the recall on two of their JoJo Maman Bébé baby clothing products due to a problem with the way the popper fastenings are attached.
This means the brand's Embroidered Cord Dungarees & Top Set and Cherry Printed Cord Dungarees & Top Set are now seen as a choking hazard to babies.
Meanwhile they also warned the front wheels on their £670 Joolz Hub2 stroller may be at risk of 'detaching' from the chassis, which could result in injury to a child or parent.
While the store has said this is a 'rare' occurrence, they have issued the safety notice as this fault may cause a potential risk of the user losing control of the pram and causing harm.
A spokesperson for John Lewis said: "We are very sorry that it has been necessary to recall this product, and for any inconvenience caused."
Joolz said: "Out of caution and commitment to parents, we are taking this proactive step.
"We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Your child's safety and your peace of mind are always our top priority."
Amazon has been forced to remove women's and children's rings after trading standards bosses discovered they contain high levels of a cancer-causing chemical.
The Office for Product Safety and Standards forced the online giant to stop selling the Dishowme butterfly rings after discovering the product contains dangerous amounts of a chemical listed as a 'category 1 carcinogen'.
They found the product contains high levels of cadmium that poses a 'serious chemical risk' to humans - with the potential to damage organs and cause cancer.
The jewellery, from China, is described as 'two silver-coloured butterfly rings sold in a clear plastic bag' and marketed at 'women and girls'.
The Office for Product Safety and Standards said: "This product presents a serious chemical risk as the cadmium content was found to be greater than the maximum permissible limit.
"Cadmium is harmful to human health as it accumulates in the body, may cause cancer and can damage organs."
Trading bosses stated that the necessary 'corrective action' was 'removal of the listing by the online marketplace (Amazon)'.
According to the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA), the uses of cadmium are declining and are now heavily restricted in the EU because of the health risks it poses.
Now it is mainly used in the production of nickel-cadmium batteries, pigments and conductors.
The UK Health Security Agency writes: "Breathing air with high levels of cadmium can cause shortness of breath, chest pain, a metallic taste in the mouth, cough and flu-like symptoms (metal fume fever), which may occur some hours after the exposure.
"In severe cases, exposure can lead to extensive fluid loss, lung damage, multiple organ failure and death.
"Levels of cadmium in the environment are typically not high enough to cause these effects.
"Ingestion of cadmium can cause irritation to the digestive tract, with diarrhoea and nausea.
"Ingestion of large amounts may result in effects on metabolism, a build-up of fluid in the lungs and swelling of the face. Cadmium may cause irritation in contact with the skin.
"Exposure to cadmium for a long period of time may result in damage to the bones and kidneys and may cause cancer."
An Amazon spokesperson said: "We require all products offered in our store to comply with applicable laws, regulations and Amazon policies.
"We continuously monitor our store and we develop innovative tools to prevent unsafe products from being listed.
"We take action to maintain a safe selection for our customers, including removing noncompliant products, and outreach to sellers, manufacturers, and government agencies for additional information, when appropriate.
"The product in question has been removed."
Primark has warned parents to stop their children playing with a water toy they flogged - for fears of it exploding and 'injuring' kids.
The fashion retailer issued an urgent recall about their Water Balloon Pump toy product after it was found to not meet 'usual high safety standards'.
They claim a manufacturing fault means there is a risk the pink and blue water balloon pumps might rupture and hurt those playing with them.
Primark explained that when the 'faulty' product is used to pump up a balloon the filling pressure increases and can rupture, posing a risk of 'physical injury' to a customer.
A Primark spokesperson said: "We have learnt the product does not meet our usual high safety standards.
"We've identified that in some of the products the safety feature is not working as intended due to a manufacturing fault.
"This can increase the filling pressure upon pumping, and then the product might rupture causing a risk of physical injury.
"Please stop using this product immediately.
"Please return this product to any of our Primark stores. It is not necessary to show proof of purchase.
"We apologise for any inconveniences and concerns this may cause.
"Spread the word about this recall, especially if you know that this recalled product was offered, borrowed or sold to someone else."
TK Maxx is warning shoppers to stop drinking from Harry Potter mugs they were flogging 'immediately' - due to containing 'unsafe metals'.
The retail giant is recalling the Harry Potter and South Park mugs, with product codes 013167 and 596096, because they don't meet safety standards for materials intended to come into contact with food or drink.
The Harry Potter mug from Blue Sky Designs Limited allowed Potterheads to 'create their own Hogwarts' thanks to 13 reusable stickers that came with it.
Meanwhile South Park fans could enjoy a brew in the company of Cartman and Kenny.
But the recall on both mugs was triggered when testing revealed the coating may release levels of heavy metals that exceed safe limits, potentially posing a health risk if used with food or drinks.
A TK Maxx spokesperson said: "The vendor is recalling these products because they do not meet safety standards for materials intended to come into contact with food.
"Testing has shown that the coating may release levels of heavy metals that exceed safe limits, which could pose a potential health risk if used with food or beverages."
Shoppers are to return the items to any TK Maxx or Homesense store for a full refund or replacement.
