Window blinds recalled for strangulation risk

Nearly 1 million roller blinds and Roman shades sold by IKEA, Bed Bath & Beyond and Hanover Direct were recalled Tuesday for posing a serious strangulation risk to small children.

A child’s neck can get tangled in the inner cord of Roman shades or the exposed loop of roller blinds, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission. The recall includes about 533,000 ISDANS, TUPPLUR and ENJE roller blinds manufactured in Taiwan and France and sold by IKEA Home Furnishings of Conshohocken, Pa. between July 2005 and July 2009.
