BOOTS has issued an urgent warning over a faulty Christmas gift which poses a "risk of burns" to customers. The Radley Cosy Up mug and sock set has been recalled - as the base of the mug could crack and break into pieces when used. Customers who have bought the set should not use it, as the problem could result in hot drinks spilling out.

Instead, they should return it to their nearest Boots outlet as soon as possible. The Cosy Up set has barcode 5016155273331 on the back and includes the ceramic mug and a pair of ribbed socks. It was made in China and has the Radley dog logo displayed on the front.

The recall covers sets sold between August 30 and December 6 this year. Boots said: "We have been informed of a potential safety issue with the mug in this set. "In some instances, the base of the mug is cracking and separating when in use, therefore, this product is being recalled.".

A spokesperson added: "The safety and well-being of our customers is very important to us. "We're asking that you stop using the mug and return it to your nearest Boots store at your earliest convenience for a full refund. "If you’ve bought this product for someone else, it’s important that you let them know about this as soon as possible.".

The Office for Product Safety and Standard said hot liquids could spill from the mug, "presenting a risk of burns". If you need more advice, ring SLG Brands Limited on 0800 0590157 between 8am and 6pm. PRODUCT recalls are an important means of protecting consumers from dangerous goods.
