3人死亡後 宜家召回數百萬危險的梳妝檯

Ikea has issued a recall for at least 27 million chests and dressers that can easily tip over onto children, injuring or killing them, NBC News confirmed. The furniture giant said Monday that after the three deaths of three children it is no longer selling its "Malm" series products because they "could be a danger," Ikea USA president Lars Peterson told NBC News.

NBC新聞證實，宜家已經宣佈召回至少2700萬個容易翻倒砸死或砸傷孩子的箱子和梳妝檯。這個家居巨頭星期三宣佈，在發生了三起孩童死亡事件後，它將不再銷售Malm系列產品，因爲這些產品很危險。宜家美國總裁Lars Peterson告訴NBC新聞。

"Please take them out of the room," Peterson said, adding that customers are eligible for a free repair kit to anchor the furniture to a wall. Refunds will also be offered. The announcement comes after an anchor campaign last year — and amid staggering statistics: every 24 minutes, a child is sent to the emergency room by a falling piece of furniture or a television, according the federal government's watchdog agency, the Consumer Product Safety Commission. Every two weeks, a child dies.

“請將它們移出房間”，Peterson說道，補充說道消費者將有權獲得一個免費的修理配件來將傢俱固定在牆上。也將允許退款。這個聲明發布在一個去年的加固傢俱運動以後——根據聯邦政府監查機構和消費者產品安全委員會的一項驚人的統計數據：每24分鐘就有一個孩子被掉落的一件掉落的傢俱或電視送進急診室。每兩週就有一個孩子死亡。

"I never heard of that before," she said, adding that one of her "main goals right now is to just spread the word about anchoring anything that could fall." In a statement to NBC News, Ikea said it issued the recall despite the anchor campaign, which resulted in the company sending out 300,000 kits.

"我從沒有聽說過這種事，”她說到，補充說她現在的一個主要目標是呼籲固定任何可能掉落的東西在牆上。根據一份NBC新聞的聲明，宜家宣佈召回，雖然加固傢俱運動導致公司送出300000套配件。

"It is clear that there are still unsecured products in customers' homes," the statement says. "We believe that taking further action is the right thing to do."

“可以確定的是仍然有不安全的產品存在於消費者的家中，”聲明中說到，“我們相信儘早採取行動是正確的。”
