RECALL on multiple IKEA items sold across the country

Several Ikea products have been taken off the shelves due to concerns they could cause serious injuries during use.

The recall was issued for Ikea’s Heroisk and Talrika plastic plates, bowls, and mugs, amid fears the products could break when filled with hot liquids and increased risks of burns, scalding, or serious injuries.

The Heroisk bowls, plates, and mugs were sold in two-packs while the Talrika range was sold in sets of four.

The Talrika plates that have been recalled include the light green, red, and dark blue versions, and the light red mug is also included.

In the Heroisk range, the green and yellow bowls, the light red and yellow mugs, and the red, green, and blue plates have also been recalled.

“Ikea received reports these products could break and potentially cause burns due to hot content,” the retail giant said.

Customers have been urged to return the products to Ikea for a full refund or exchange, and a proof of receipt is not required.

The products were sold across the country between August 2019 and May 2021.
