IKEA HAS ANNOUNCED the recall of millions of chests of drawers in the United States and Canada after they caused the deaths of three children in the US. These have also been sold in China, but since they meet the country's safety standards IKEA has refused to recall them. Rednet.cn commented on Monday:

The chests of drawers that have been recalled have caused many accidents to children in different countries. And therefore, they should be recalled around the world.

But although there are more than 20 Ikea stores in China their customers have been neglected by the global furniture chain, which says the product quality remains within the national safety standards.
