IKEA recalls FÖRSTÅ coffee/tea maker

04 March 2011, IKEA recalls FÖRSTÅ coffee/tea maker
IKEA kindly asks customers who have a FÖRSTÅ coffee/tea maker to immediately stop using the product and bring it back to any IKEA store for a full refund.

Pressure from the metal holder on the glass pot can cause it to break unexpectedly, posing a burn and laceration hazard.

IKEA has received twenty reports of the glass pot breaking, including twelve reports of burn injures from spilt coffee/tea and one report of laceration injury.

FÖRSTÅ coffee/tea maker in two sizes, 0.4l and 1l was sold at IKEA stores worldwide between February - December 2010.

IKEA does not compromise on product safety and recommend all customers concerned to return the FÖRSTÅ coffee/tea maker for a full refund.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
