IKEA is recalling about 33,400 MYSINGSÖ beach chairs because the chair can collapse unexpectedly, posing fall and fingertip amputation hazards. There have been 13 reports worldwide of these chairs collapsing, resulting in 10 injuries, including six fingertip amputations (one occurring in the U.S.). The chairs were sold at IKEA stores and online from February 2013 through December 2016 for approximately $25. Consumers should immediately stop using these chairs and return them for a free replacement or a full refund.
The beach chairs can collapse during use if they are re-assembled incorrectly after washing the fabric, which can cause users to fall or have their fingers caught in the folding mechanism, leading to severe injury or amputation.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled chairs and return them to any IKEA store for a free replacement or full refund. Replacement MYSINGSÖ beach chairs are labeled with article numbers 703.380.17 and 903.380.16 and have plastic stoppers that prevent incorrect re-assembly.
