IKEA is reannouncing and expanding its recall of approximately 3.5 million children's wall-mounted lamps (about 34.1 million units worldwide) across many style names including SMILA, BILEN, and TASSA. Children can become entangled in the 7-to-8-foot long electrical cord hanging from these lamps, posing a severe risk of strangulation. IKEA has received reports of a 15-month-old baby who nearly strangled after becoming entangled in a TASSA NATT lamp cord and a 16-month-old baby who tragically died after being entangled in a SMILA lamp cord. The lamps were sold in IKEA stores nationwide and online from May 1984 through April 2014 for between $5 and $30.
The long electrical cord can hang down within reach of a child, specifically if placed near a crib or bed. Infants can pull the cord into their sleeping area and become entangled around their neck, leading to serious injury or death from strangulation.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled lamps, remove them from the wall and contact IKEA for a free repair kit. Do not use the lamp until the repair kit is installed. The repair kit has self-adhesive fasteners for attaching the lamp's cord to the wall as well as safety instructions.
