All products sold by Amazon sellers in various regions must undergo regulatory approval from each country, and the government also has testing robots. Amazon removes tens of thousands of products that do not meet its standards every year, many of which are Chinese products that it removes in the United States. The reason for this is that there is a large number of Chinese sellers on Amazon.
Today we will look at the data of Chinese products removed from Amazon - child car seats.
There is a child car seat product on Amazon that is described as a "4-in-1 infant car safety seat and stroller" and comes with a popular Doona brand image, including a photo of Ivanka Trump, the daughter of US President Trump, and her daughter.
The product is on sale on Amazon for $299, which is $200 cheaper than the real Doona. The price difference is a bit big! This product has been identified as potentially dangerous to children.
The car seat failed to meet basic standards set by U.S. regulators. Video of the test showed the toddler flying amid twisted, broken pieces of plastic as the car seat broke off and slid forward. In an identical crash test scenario, a genuine federally compliant Doona car seat remained intact.
Dr. Alisa Baer, a pediatrician and nationally certified child passenger safety instructor, reviewed the test results and said that in a real crash, this car seat failure could put a child in "serious danger" and cause chest, neck injuries. It may also cause traumatic brain injury.
Dangerous goods shipped from China have been removed from Amazon
Notably, the product purchased by CNN was listed by a seller called Strolex and shipped from China. All US car seats must be certified to NHTSA standards, but this seat does not have any US certification label. On the Amazon product listing it claimed to have European certification but was missing a required European certification label, and the European registration number on the instructions was a copy of Doona's.
Currently, the seller Strolex's products have disappeared from Amazon's website, but the seller Strolex still sells other products on the website, although there are no active products. When reached by phone, a Strolex representative in China said in English, "My product is safe," but declined to give his name or answer any other questions.
Faced with the temptation of profit, Amazon has been removing and removing products from its shelves one after another. The above is some of the Chinese data on Amazon product removals in this issue. If you want to get more relevant knowledge about Amazon, please continue to pay attention!
