IKEA has recalled about 12,000 ODGER Swivel Chairs in the anthracite (gray) color because the chair's leg base can break. This defect poses a risk of fall and injury to consumers. IKEA has received four reports of the leg base breaking, including two incidents in the U.S. where individuals were injured as a result of a fall. The chairs were sold at IKEA stores and online at IKEA.com from October 2019 through December 2022 for approximately $160.
The plastic leg base of the swivel chair can unexpectedly snap or break during use, causing the chair to collapse and the occupant to fall. This has already resulted in at least two reported injuries from falls.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled chairs and return any chair bearing a date stamp before and including 2221 (YYWW) to any IKEA store or contact IKEA for instructions on how to dispose of the chair to receive a full refund. Proof of purchase (receipt) is not required.
Affected chairs bear a date stamp before and including 2221 (YYWW format) molded under the seat shell.
