IKEA Expands Recall of Crib Mattresses Due to Risk of Entrapment

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Approximately 300,000 SULTAN and VYSSA crib mattresses are being recalled because they can create a gap between the mattress and the crib ends that is larger than allowed by federal safety regulations. This defect has led to two reports of infants becoming trapped in the gap between the mattress and the crib end. Affected models include SULTAN BLUNDA, DRÖMMA, SNARKA, and SUSSA, as well as VYSSA VACKERT, VINKA, SPELEVINK, SLÖA, and SLUMMER manufactured on May 4, 2014, or earlier. Consumers should immediately stop using any mattress that fails a simple finger-width gap test and return it to IKEA for a refund or replacement.

Risk

The mattress can shrink or fail to fit the crib properly, creating a space wider than two fingers where an infant's head or body can become wedged and trapped. There have been two reports of infants becoming entrapped in these gaps, though no injuries were reported.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately inspect your crib mattress for a gap larger than the width of two fingers between the ends of the crib and the mattress.
  2. Check the identification label attached to the mattress cover for the model name (SULTAN BLUNDA, DRÖMMA, SNARKA, SUSSA or VYSSA VACKERT, VINKA, SPELEVINK, SLÖA, SLUMMER).
  3. Verify the date of manufacture on the label; recalled mattresses were made on May 4, 2014, or earlier (look for date formats like MAY 04 2014 or a year-week code of 14-18 or earlier).
  4. Stop using the mattress immediately if the gap is larger than two fingers wide or if it matches the recalled model and date criteria.
  5. Return any affected mattress to any IKEA store to receive a full refund or a replacement mattress.
