Major retailer with Ipswich stores recalls children’s bottle over choking fears

The Office for Product Safety Standards (OPSS) has issued a safety recall for a Toy Story-themed water bottle sold at Home Bargains.
The retailer has two stores in the Ipswich area in Suffolk Retail Park and Martlesham.
The product is being recalled due to a potential choking risk, with customers advised to keep it “out of reach of young children.”
The TJ Morris Toy Story Water Bottle has been sold by Home Bargains since May 2026.
It has been deemed a potential choking hazard because the spout can detach from the lid, creating a small part.

The OPSS said: “If this occurs during use, the spout may block a child’s airways and cause them to choke.
“The product does not meet the requirements of the General Product Safety Regulations 2005.”
The batch codes affected by the water bottle recall are 11449732, 11449736, 11449737, 11449738, 11449742, 11449743, and 11449744.
A spokesman for Home Bargains added: “Check if you have bought the affected batch codes. Only these codes are affected.
“The information can be found on the swing tag on the product packaging and the care label inside the bottle.
“If you are unsure if your bottle is impacted or no longer have the packaging, return to store for a full refund.”
