  1. No one hurt

    Made May 17, 2019, sent to the company Jul 1, 2019, published by CPSC Jul 16, 2019

    The product, in the report: Solvinden LED string lights from IKEA. These are LED, indoor/outdoor lights.

    We purchased Solvinden LED string lights from IKEA. They are listed as indoor/outdoor lights. We hung the lights on our deck railing. After a couple of weeks outdoors, every single light bulb has water in them. The box states that they are non-replaceable LED lights. I believe they present a electrical safety hazard. We removed the lights and no longer use them. We did not have any injuries or electrical shocks, but clearly there is a potential for injury or shock.

    The IKEA Product Article Number for these lights is : 404.220.84. The IKEA Supplier Number for the lights is: 178006152999
