How to Read a Waterproof Toy Claim Without Inventing an IP Rating
Start With the Exact Wording
The captured FUN FACTORY FAQ answer states that all rechargeable toys from FUN FACTORY are 100% waterproof. Treat that as the manufacturer's own wording, not as an independently verified performance result. It does not by itself establish an IP code, a depth, or a duration.
Watch for a Stated Condition
The same answer states that the battery operated toys are also waterproof as long as the battery compartment is properly closed. That condition is part of the claim. The answer does not say the toys stay waterproof if the compartment is not properly closed, and it does not explain how to confirm that condition for a specific model.
Note What the Question Covers
The captured FAQ answer addresses the question of whether the toy can be used in a bath tub. That tells you the topic the manufacturer chose to answer. It does not mean the answer is a complete water-use specification, and it does not cover pools, showers, or other water exposure.
Compare the Two Categories
The captured answer words the waterproof claim differently for rechargeable toys and battery-operated toys, tying the battery-operated claim to the battery compartment being properly closed. That difference is in the wording shown. It does not establish technical specifications, IP codes, or limits for either category.
Treat Missing Details as Unstated
The captured FUN FACTORY FAQ answer does not state an IP code, a depth, a duration, or a charging-in-water instruction for either rechargeable or battery-operated toys. An absent value in this answer means not established here, not that the product has no rating or limit anywhere.
A Pre-Purchase Documentation Checklist
- Ask: Does the product page or manual name an IP code? Does it state a maximum depth or time in water? Does it explain how to confirm the battery compartment is properly closed? Does it give separate care instructions for rechargeable and battery-operated versions? If any answer is missing, ask the seller or manufacturer before buying.
