Before you buy
Start with suitability, then compare the evidence. These checks are questions to investigate, not promises that every product in this ranking meets them.
- Check age suitability, warnings and recall information; an ethical ranking is not a child-safety assessment.
- For secondhand items, confirm all parts and instructions are present and check the item's history before buying.
- Compare washable designs and replacement parts, but do not extend use beyond the manufacturer's safety instructions.
What the ranking does—and does not—tell you
The ethics score is a comparison of the information recorded in our catalogue, not a customer star rating, safety test or complete lifecycle assessment. Check the individual product's sources, certificate scope and current retailer details before deciding.
