IKEA recalls children's wall-mounted lamps due to risk of strangulation from electrical cords. Consumers must stop using and return lamps for free repair kits to prevent entanglement hazards.
Children can get entangled in the electrical cord that hangs from the children's wall-mounted lamps, posing a strangulation hazard.
IKEA is recalling children's wall-mounted lamps because children can get entangled in the electrical cord, posing a strangulation hazard. This affects lamps sold in various styles and colors. The recall requires immediate removal and repair to prevent serious injury.
The electrical cord on these lamps is long (7-8 feet) and can be easily entangled by children, leading to strangulation. The cord may have a switch on the cord or on the lamp itself, but the risk remains if a child pulls on the cord.
Parents and caregivers of children under 5 years old who own any of the recalled IKEA children's wall-mounted lamps are most at risk. The hazard is particularly dangerous for young children who may pull on the cord.
The recalled lamps have a cord about 7-8 feet long with either a switch on the cord or on the lamp. They include various styles like BILEN, FLABB, KUSLIG, LJUSNING, MINNEN, and others listed in the recall notice.
Remove the recalled lamps from the wall and do not use them until a repair kit is installed.
Reach out to IKEA for a free repair kit that includes self-adhesive fasteners to attach the cord securely to the wall.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled lamps, remove them from the wall and contact IKEA for a free repair kit. Do not use the lamp until the repair kit is installed. The repair kit has self-adhesive fasteners for attaching the lamp's cord to the wall as well as safety instructions.
