Recall more than three million curtains in the US

CPSC announced that there were two recent reports that two - year - old children were almost strangled by curtains.

As early as in April 4, 2008, a 1 year old baby girl was suffocated by the winding of Rome curtain cord.

Two recent reports have led to recall.

The recalled products are of three types: Rome curtains, rolling shutters and shutters sold from IKEA stores in the United States from January 1998 to June 2009.

The recalled curtains were produced in India, Estonia, China and Poland.

CPSC thinks that the drawstring of the roller can be put on the bottom. If the rope slips, it may be put on the neck of the child. The shutter may cause an accident because the bead chain is not fastened to the wall or floor, and the cord of the Rome curtain is likely to entangle the child and lead to strangulation.

Rome curtain price reduction

Yesterday afternoon, reporters at the IKEA home store in North Fourth Ring saw that many people were choosing curtains. The original price of a Rome curtain called "Mera" was 249 yuan, and the current discount price was 99 yuan, because the price reduction was quite popular, and there was only one left on the shelf.

Reporters saw that in addition to the rope, some shutters and Rome curtains are the chain of beads. In front of these curtain shelves, there is an installation instructions and safety information, which prompts consumers "IKEA suggests that only the cordless curtain can be installed in children's bedroom and sleeping area."

For the potential safety hazard of shutters and shutters in Rome, a reporter interviewed more than a dozen customers randomly, many of whom did not think much before.

IKEA curtain fabric staff member Hou said that IKEA has not yet heard the recall of the Rome curtain in the United States: "we have not been informed that all the curtains are still in normal sales."

Reporters did not see the rolling shutter mentioned by CPSC in IKEA yesterday.

IKEA: China does not exist at present

In addition to giving tips in the store, reporters saw a black "safety warning" message on IKEA's official website yesterday, which explained the safety information in the installation and use of Rome curtains and shutters.

IKEA's Rome curtains are sold all over the world, but this is only recalled in North America. At present, China has no recall and no recall plan, said IKEA, China's public relations manager.

Xu Lide said, because North American relevant industry associations such as the Consumer Product Safety Commission (similar to China Consumer Association) has a regulation, when the product is in danger, it will require businesses to recall voluntarily.

But these products in Rome curtain are actually no problem, so long as they are used according to the safety instructions, they are safe.
