Here’s How to Get Your Money Back If You Have a Recalled IKEA Baby Gate
Back in May 2015, IKEA recalled about 80,000 PATRULL KLÄMA and PATRULL SMIDIG safety gates due to the danger of falling. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, IKEA is now expanding this recall to include PATRULL and PATRULL FAST models. If you own any of these models, you can return them to the store for full compensation .
At the time of the announcement, CPSC IKEA had received 55 reports of injuries worldwide, including cuts, bruises and concussions. Some of them were the result of the collapse of the gate on the stairs. The safety gates are white, made of beech or steel and plastic, and are 28.75 “high and adjustable in widths from 28.75” to 34.25 “.
