The intended use of a SUNDVIK changing table/chest is for changing diapers on small children. Its second life is as storage furniture. In the reports IKEA has seen that customers tend to use this product as an everyday folding changing table, and that they don’t use the safety locking fittings according to instructions. IKEA has received the reports of incidents where the foldable part has come loose and children have fallen off the changing table. As a precautionary measure, IKEA has decided to conduct a recall for repair service action for this product.

“The intended use is for changing diapers on small children and as storage furniture and we believe that the product is safe when used as intended and according to instructions provided.”, says Children’s Business Area Manager Emelie Knoester, adding “We will further improve the product communication of how to use safety locking fittings.”
