  1. Emergency room

    Made Jul 1, 2018, sent to the company Jul 10, 2018, published by CPSC Jul 31, 2018

    The product, in the report: transparent glass mug which is make of tempered glass,length:11cm, width:9cm, hight:7cm, weight:0.21kg.And there is IKEA logo at the glass mug bottom In IKEA China website, its Article Number: 502.589.12 In IKEA US website, its Article Number: 702.589.11

    Dear Sir or Madam

    I am writing to make a revelation for #IKEA tempered glass mug explosion suddenly# under regular use conditions! And hurt my face with 4 stitches and broken my tooth, multiple soft tissue injuries in the body and mild concussion.

    I just got up to have some water, used IKEA glass mug which made of tempered glass, suddenly it exploded beside the mouth while I was drinking. There are already several IKEA glass explosion accidents before mine in Micro-blog hot searching, But IKEA did not make any corresponding emergency measures and instructions. IKEA is a large multinational, glass mug as its star product with impressive sales. A large number of people use it. Since the glass mug were so widely used, but IKEA did not have to make any cautions and usage direction, even this mug still on sale in IKEA store.

    The IKEA Store where I bought this mug is dealing with procrastination now, and said cannot identify the responsibility for the accident, and said this product has been sent to have a test and there is no quality problem. If there is no quality problem, why would I be disfigured by used it to just drinking water?The glass mug was not sold only at the one store but also sold around the world, I just want to know if the IKEA could be responsible for the quality and safety of their customer.

    I used to be a loyal user and big fan of IKEA,always went to IKEA center for shopping. There are thousands of people are loyal customers of IKEA around the world like me. As a victim, I know the destructive force of tempered glass mug explosion, and I hope there will be no more injuries for the same reason.

    There are some pictures for my injury, the situation of glass explosion in my home and some other peoples` explosion with the mail attachments. I had already collected at least 150 victims situation of glass explosion about IKEA glass, if you need I will be pleased to provide them for you.

    I appreciate it very much if you could follow this accident and warn other people about the glass,it is really dangerous. Thank you for your consideration and I will be looking forward to your reply.

    Yours sincerely

    IKEA glass explosion victim

  2. Seen by a doctor or nurse

    Made Sep 5, 2014, sent to the company Sep 15, 2014, published by CPSC Sep 29, 2014

    The product, in the report: glass cup, stackable, approximately 10 oz.

    I opened the package of IKEA cups and proceeded to wash the cups. As I reached down into one of the cups with sponge in hand, I felt something going into my finger under my fingernail. When I looked into the cup, I noticed at the bottom, on the side, a defect, which was similar to a “bird swing defect” according to this site (http://www.ams.usda.gov/AMSv1.0/getfile?dDocName=STELDEV3003498).

    It seems that in a regular bird swing defect, the top end is connected, but in my cup, the top, sharp end was pointing straight up. It became lodged under my fingernail and I had to have it removed by a surgeon (while my finger was anesthetized, my fingernail was lifted to remove the spike).

    It is conceivable that, had I not discovered the defect through the handwashing, the glass cup could have been put to use, and if something was placed inside the cup (e.g., ice, spoon, etc.), the glass defect could have dislodged from the cup, and someone could have drunk from the cup and swallowed the spike.

    The product, in the report: Beige IKEA “Dinera” Dinner Plate, part of an 18 piece set. Listed on website as Article Number: 600.570.98

    We purchased the Dinera plate set from IKEA in December, 2013. These plates are listed as microwave safe. My husband heating food in the microwave on the plate when suddenly he heard a loud explosion in the microwave. He immediately stopped the microwave, and when he opened it up, the plate had cracked completely down the middle. This is an obvious safety hazard!
