EMSD urges public to suspend use of IKEA's GOTHEM floor and table lamps (with photos)

  • 2016.03.17

The Electrical and Mechanical Services Department (EMSD) today (March 17) urged the public to suspend the use of IKEA's GOTHEM floor and table lamps and contact the product supplier, IKEA Hong Kong, for product return and refund.

According to the supplier, damaged cables have been found in the bases of the products, which may lead to the metal body becoming electrically live, thus posing a potential risk of electric shock. The supplier has therefore decided to arrange a recall with full refund for these products.

For enquiries, please call IKEA Hong Kong's customer service hotline at 3125 0888 or visit its website (www.IKEA.com.hk).
