IKEA recalls 1.66 million drawers in mainland two weeks after they were recalled overseas for child deaths
IKEA China has started recalling more than 1.66 million of chests of drawers including the popular Malm line sold in China's mainland, it announced today after coming under fire for refusing to recall these products as it did in North America.
The furniture under the recall scheme, which has been submitted to China's top quality watchdog, were sold between 1999 and 2016, and 1,660,845 pieces of furniture products, including some imported ones, are involved, according to China's General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine.
Consumers can receive a full refund for returning the furniture listed in the recall plan, the administration said.
On June 29, IKEA announced it would recall 35.6 million chests and dressers, including the popular Malm line, in the United States and Canada, after six children there were fatally crushed after the furniture toppled over.
However, IKEA has refused to recall similar products in China, provoking accusations of discrimination and consumer rights violations from the consumer rights protection commissions in Shenzhen and Nanjing and Chinese lawyers.
The Shanghai Quality and Technical Supervision Bureau talked with IKEA China to learn about relevant situation earlier, and had ordered the company to fulfill its obligation on quality safety and screen product safety hazards. And in response, IKEA said its products sold in China meet the country’s national quality standard and no injuries caused by its furniture have been reported.
