Plain-English summary

IKEA is recalling approximately 7,000 MATVRÅ infant bibs sold in two-packs. The recall is due to a choking hazard, as the snap on the back of the neck can detach. The affected bibs feature one blue bib with a green seam and white polka dots, and one red bib with a yellow seam and red polka dots. Both bibs have a white tag on the back with the MATVRÅ, IKEA, and IKEA logo printed on them.

The company received two reports of the snaps detaching, but neither incident occurred in the United States, and no injuries have been reported. The bibs were sold exclusively at IKEA stores nationwide and online at www.ikea-usa.com from August 2019 through September 2019 for about $2. The products were manufactured in Vietnam and imported by IKEA Supply AG of Switzerland.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled bibs and return them to any IKEA store for a full refund. For more information, consumers can contact IKEA toll-free at 888-966-4532 or visit www.ikea-usa.com and click on Product Recalls at the bottom of the page.
