IKEA chair recall overview: 

  • Who: Ikea recalled about 12,000 swivel chairs.
  • Why: The chairs’ leg base can break, posing fall and injury hazards. 
  • Where: The recall is active in the United States.

Ikea recalled about 12,000 swivel chairs as the chairs’ leg base can break, posing fall and injury hazards. 

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission website published the recall Feb. 9. It applies to the ODGER Swivel Chair in either anthracite or gray. 

According to the recall, IKEA received four reports of the leg base of the ODGER Swivel Chair in anthracite breaking, including two reports of consumers being injured as a result of a fall in the United States, the company says.

The company is not currently facing legal action over the recall, but Top Class Actions follows recalls closely as they sometimes end in class action lawsuits.

Full refund offered for ODGER chair, IKEA recall notice states

IKEA sold the recalled chairs at IKEA stores and online at IKEA.com from October 2019 through December 2022 for about $160.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled chairs and return any chair bearing a date stamp before and including 2221 (YYWW) to any IKEA store or contact IKEA for instructions on how to dispose of the chair to receive a full refund. 

Consumers can find the name and date stamp of the product underneath the seat molded in the material of the chair. 

Proof of purchase is not required, according to the chair recall.

In other IKEA news, in 2021, IKEA issued a voluntary recall of more than 159,000 colorful plates, bowls and mugs that allegedly can become brittle and break, causing hot food or liquid to leak out.
