March 19,
2023 by HFBusiness Staff in Business Strategy, Industry
This recall involves all sizes of LETTAN flat mirrors. The plastic fittings that attach the mirror to the wall can break, causing the mirror to fall, posing a laceration hazard to consumers.
There were about 22,400 mirrors sold in the U.S., and in addition, about 17,500 were sold in Canada. They were sold nationwide and online at IKEA.com from December 2019 through October 2022 for between $23 and $56.
The mirrors are frameless, about 38 inches high and were sold in 23, 31, 39 and 47 inches wide. The recalled mirrors have a date stamp before and including 2105 (YYWW). The date stamp is in (YYWW) format where the first two digits represent the year, and the last two digits represent the week of manufacture. The date stamp is located on the back of the mirror.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled mirrors and contact IKEA to order a free set of replacement wall fittings and instructions. Alternatively, customers can return the mirror to any IKEA store for a full refund. Proof of purchase (receipt) is not required to receive a full refund.
IKEA has received 55 incident reports globally, and one report of the plastic fittings coming loose and the mirror falling off the wall in the U.S.
