About 148,000 products are affected by the recall and were sold in IKEA stores nationwide and online from August 2019 until earlier this month. The items came in a variety of colors, including yellow, pink and blue and sold for between $4 and $12.Anyone who purchased the items included in the recall should immediately stop using them and return them to the IKEA store for a full refund.
