IKEA is recalling approximately 2,000 GUNGGUNG children's swings in the U.S. because the plastic suspension fittings can break during use. There have been four reports worldwide of these fittings breaking, including one incident where a child fell and sustained a fractured leg. The swing is made of green polyester fabric and was sold nationwide and online at IKEA-USA from June 2014 through August 2014. Consumers should immediately stop using the swing and return it to any IKEA store for a full refund.
The plastic suspension fittings that attach the swing to its hooks can snap or break while a child is swinging. This can cause the child to fall unexpectedly from the seat to the ground, posing a risk of serious impact injuries such as broken bones.
Consumers should immediately take down the swing to prevent use by children and return it to any IKEA store for a full refund. Proof of purchase is not required to receive a full refund for the return.
