What to do now

Consumers may obtain a free anchoring repair kit to secure the chest of drawers to the wall OR may contact IKEA for a refund.

To receive the anchoring kit by mail, consumers should contact IKEA Customer Support Centre at 1-800-661-9807 or by visiting http://ikea. Ca/saferhomestogether. Consumers are advised to install the kit themselves or contact IKEA Customer Support Centre at 1-800-661-9807 for a one-time free in-home anchoring kit installation service. Consumers who would not like to secure the affected IKEA chests of drawers to the wall should return them to any IKEA location for a refund. Consumers are entitled to a full refund for chests of drawers manufactured between January 2002 and June 2016. Consumers with chests of drawers manufactured prior to January 2002 will be eligible for a partial store credit. For more information, consumers may contact IKEA Canada by visiting the Secure It!
