IKEA recalls 1.66 mln chest of drawers in China

Xinhua, July 12, 2016 Adjust font size:

Sweden's IKEA Group on Tuesday started to recall over 1.66 million sets of drawers, including the popular Malm line, sold across China's mainland, according to China's top quality watchdog.

The products, which include some imported models, were sold between 1999 and 2016, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine said in a statement.

If these products are not fixed to the wall they can tip over, and possibly cause injuries, according to the watchdog.

Consumers can receive a full refund for returning the furniture listed in the recall plan, said the administration. Endi
