PETALING JAYA: The Scandinavian furniture group Ikea has issued a product recall on three types of glass ceiling lamps, two of which are sold in Malaysia.
Anyone with a Hyby, Lock or Rinna ceiling lamp should immediately remove it and take it back to any Ikea store for a full refund, the company said in a statement. Proof of purchase was not required.
The company said there had been customer reports of the glass shades falling, and one person in Malaysia, among others in other countries, had required medical treatment.
“We have received reports that Lock and Hyby ceiling lamps have fallen. In order to safeguard customers and avoid further incidents, we are recalling the products for a full refund,” Ikea said.
The lamps have been sold in Malaysia since 2002 and 2012, respectively. Rinna lamps are sold in 11 European countries and in China, but not in Malaysia.
