IKEA recalls for repair ELDSLÅGA gas hob due to Carbon Monoxide (CO) emission above European Union limit levels
As a precautionary measure, IKEA is conducting a recall for repair on all ELDSLÅGA gas hobs purchased before January 1st 2018.
24-04-2018

This action follows an investigation by the Belgian market surveillance authorities. To repair this fault, a home visit by a service technician is required. This service is free of charge.

To repair this fault, we kindly ask customers affected to contact our Customer Service team on 0203 645 0010 to book a time for the repair service. A receipt is not required. We will do our outmost to minimise the waiting time.

IKEA recalls LATTJO drum sticks and LATTJO tongue drum for choking hazard
14-01-2016

IKEA urges customers who have LATTJO drum sticks or LATTJO tongue drum to bring them back to any IKEA store for a full refund.

This is a precautionary recall due to 6 reports from IKEA store co-workers that the rubber ball of the drum sticks can detach or be unscrewed.

The products are tested and approved to applicable toy safety standards. However, during our subsequent investigation we identified risks that the standards do not address.

“We develop products intended to stimulate children’s creativity and natural need for play. Children don’t think about safety when playing, so we need to do that when we develop products. Our mindset at IKEA is that we only sell products that we would give to our own children. Despite approved tests to relevant toy safety standards we are therefore precautionary recalling LATTJO drum sticks and LATTJO tongue drum to avoid the risk of any incidents,” says Cindy Andersen, Business Area Manager for children’s products at IKEA.

LATTJO drum sticks and LATTJO tongue drum have been sold on all IKEA markets since 1st November 2015.
