No one hurt Made Dec 10, 2016, sent to the company Dec 19, 2016, published by CPSC Jan 4, 2017
The product, in the report: GLANSA CHANDELIER from IKEA of Sweden. Designed by [REDACTED]. Wreath-shaped decorative light with LED lights. Can be hung horizontally or vertically. Diameter: 14” (35 cm). Lamp is made of powder coated steel.
I have an Ikea ‘Glansa’ chandelier, and it was plugged into an outlet strip under my bed. At some point, the AC-DC transformer melted. It looks like it overheated to the point that it burned a hole through the plastic casing and started to burn my carpet. When I noticed the burn one random evening, the transformer and the spot on the carpet were cool to the touch, so I can’t say exactly when this occurred.
The outlet strip doesn’t seem to be at issue. I only have three things plugged into it: a cell phone charger, a small bed-side fan, and the Ikea chandelier. Neither the charger nor the fan have experienced any issues before or after this incident, and the outlet strip still performs fine. As such, I think the Ikea transformer is the issue and want to submit my report in relation to that.
