IKEA is recalling more than 25,000 mirrors sold in the U.S. and Canada because theY could fall and break, potentially harming consumers.
The IKEA LETTAN mirrors – about 14,600 sold in the U.S. and 10,500 sold in Canada – have plastic fittings that attach the mirror to the wall and can break, causing the mirror to fall, "posing a laceration hazard to consumers," the company said on its website.
About 22,400 of the mirrors were previously recalled in March 2023, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
IKEA has received more than 65 reports globally about the mirrors, including 56 in the previous recall, the agency said, and no injuries have been reported.
The recalled mirrors have been sold in U.S. stores and online between December 2019 through June 2023 for about $29.99 to $55.99, the retailer said. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled mirrors and contact IKEA to order replacement wall fittings free of charge.
