Full answer

The Coco Village Wooden Play Construction Workbench with Miter Saw is certified to meet ASTM, SOR (Canada), CE, AS/NZS ISO 8124, and UKCA safety standards, including requirements related to chemical components and child safety. These certifications place it among wooden toy workbenches and pretend play tool sets that are tested against internationally recognized child-safety benchmarks.

Like any construction toy for kids that includes small hardware pieces, the workbench carries a choking hazard warning due to its nails, screws, and nuts. It is not intended for children under 3 years of age, and constant adult supervision is required during play.

Parents should also inspect the workbench and its accessories before each use, discontinue use if any piece is damaged, cracked, or worn, and keep all assembly parts and packaging materials out of reach of children. This wooden play workbench is intended strictly as a pretend play toy and should never be used with real tools, blades, or hardware.
