KUALA LUMPUR, June 13 – IKEA has issued an urgent recall for the IKEA 365+ VÄRDEFULL Garlic Press in black, following an internal investigation that revealed a potential safety risk. Due to a production error, small metal fragments may detach during use and pose a risk of ingestion.
The affected product bears article numbers 201.521.58, 305.781.89, and 601.636.02, with date stamps from 2411 to 2522. Customers are advised to immediately stop using the garlic press and return it to any IKEA store for a full refund—no proof of purchase is required.
The garlic press can be identified by the IKEA logo on the upper handle, and customers unsure of their item’s status are encouraged to return it as a precaution. IKEA urges customers to share this information widely, particularly if the product has been gifted or resold.
