The recall campaign affects specific products with the article number 201.521.58 and date stamps between 2411 and 2522 (JJWW).

recall also extended in Austria

The recall has now also been extended to Austria, as VKI reported. Here this happened on the order of the Austrian Food Safety Authority. In a local test, the garlic press with the date stamp 2444 (JJWW) failed, which led to the quick reaction and the recall recall. The recommendation for customers remains the same: Please no longer use the garlic press and contact Ikea to get the money back.

responsible communication is important

Such recall actions show how important transparent information about product safety is. Consumers are dependent on being warned in time. According to product warning, affected customers should not only check their purchases, but also pay attention to whether they may pass on or sell the product. In such a case, you should also inform others about the security concerns.

The German Red Cross (DRK) also provides valuable information on how to react in the event of a foreign body. Ikea itself emphasizes in his message that the safety of the products is a top priority and regrets the inconvenience caused by this recall.

We can only advise: Check your kitchen utensils and act before it is too late. Security in our own four walls should be our top priority for each of us.
