Recalls this week: Crib mattresses and chairs

A line of crib mattresses sold at Ikea are being recalled because of a potential entrapment hazard for infants. Other recalled consumer products this week include chairs with potentially defective legs.

Here's a more detailed look:

CRIB MATTRESSES

DETAILS: IKEA VYSSA style crib mattresses with the following five model names: VACKERT, VINKA, SPELEVINK, SLÖA and SLUMMER. The involved mattresses were made on May 4, 2014 or earlier. An identification label attached to the mattress cover has the date of manufacture in Month-DD-YYYY format and the VYSSA model name. A gap between the mattress and crib ends larger than two finger width is an indication of the defective mattress. They were sold at IKEA stores nationwide and online at www.ikea-usa.com from August 2010 to May 2014.

WHY: The crib mattresses could create a gap between the mattress and crib ends larger than allowed by federal regulations, posing an entrapment hazard to infants.

INCIDENTS: Two reports of infants becoming entrapped between the mattress and an end of the crib. The children were removed from the gap without injury.

HOW MANY: About 169,000.
