Ikea recalls children’s safety gates over reports of accidents

Ikea has received reports that the safety gates have opened unexpectedly, causing children to fall down stairs

Ikea has recalled children’s safety gates over the unreliable locking mechanism which could result in injury for kids.

Yesterday, the Swedish furniture retailer said they’d received reports that the gates have opened unexpectedly, causing children to fall down stairs and require medical attention.

The recall targets the Patrull safety gate and urges customers who have this model to stop using it immediately. You can return them to an Ikea store without proof of purchase and get a full refund.
