Ikea has issued a recall for specific models of its Nymåne wall lamps due to a serious safety concern involving a risk of electric shock. Customers who own these lamps, which were manufactured within certain date codes, are advised to stop using them immediately. The company has identified a manufacturing defect where the insulation of the electrical wire is inadequate, leading to the potential risk of electrical shock, according to their statement.

The recalled products include several models of the Nymåne wall lamp with different specifications, including white and anthracite versions. Customers can identify the specific lamps affected by their date stamps and supplier codes. The company provides clear guidance on which date codes fall under the recall, specifically those from week 2217 to week 2550. Lamps produced before date stamp 2217 and after 2550 are not affected by this recall, offering some reassurance to customers who may be concerned about safety.

As consumer safety remains a top priority for retailers, Ikea's swift action reflects a commitment to addressing potential hazards associated with its products. Customers are encouraged to check their lamps against the provided specifications and reach out to Ikea customer service if they possess one of the impacted models, ensuring they can be advised on the next steps and receive any further information required.
