TK Maxx has issued a major recall over a number of children’s drink bottles that were sold in its stores.
The recall warns that the product may pose a potential choking hazard to youngsters - due to a quality issue.
Which products have been recalled?
The recall notice extends to selected children’s drink bottles designed by Tri Coastal Design, which were available to buy in TK Maxx.
The bottles come in four different designs, featuring:
- Robots
- Dinosaurs
- Two with unicorn patterns
When were the products sold at Tk Maxx?
The affected products were on sale in TK Maxx stores between December 2019 and March 2020.
TK Maxx has issued the recall after identifying a quality issue with the product, which could pose a choking hazard to children.
The retailer found that in certain circumstances, it is possible for the rubber nib inside the lid of the bottle to detach and be swallowed.
What is the advice for customers?
Customers who have purchased the affected products have been advised to stop using them immediately and return them to any TK Maxx store in the UK or Republic of Ireland for a full refund.
In a statement, TK Maxx said: “The safety of our customers is very important to us and we are taking this action as a precaution.”

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
