IKEA recalls 1.66 mn chest of drawers in China

BEIJING: Sweden's IKEA group today started to recall over 1.66 million sets of drawers, including the popular Malm line, sold across China's mainland.

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, it said.

Consumers can receive a full refund for returning the furniture listed in the recall plan, the state-run Xinhua news agency reported.
