What are the defects?

The products do not have a non-return air valve and the appropriate warning labels do not appear on the product.
What are the hazards?
In the absence of a non-return air valve and required labelling, air may escape from the product at too fast a rate and users may not be aware of important safety information about the use of the product (i.e. only use under supervision).
There is potentially an increased risk of drowning if the product deflates or is not used as intended.
What should consumers do?
Consumers should immediately stop using these products.
Kogan Australia will contact affected consumers to provide a full refund. Consumers will be instructed to destroy the product by carefully using scissors to cut through the product so it can no longer be inflated, then dispose of the product.
For more information, consumers should contact Kogan Australia on 1300 304 292 or via email supervisor@kogan.com.au
