Latest News About Ikea Garlic Press Recall

I don’t have direct access to live tools right now, but here’s the latest I can share based on recent recalls.

Answer

• IKEA recalled its 365+ VÄRDEFULL garlic press due to a risk that small metal pieces could detach during use, potentially causing ingestion or laceration hazards. The recall was publicly announced in June 2025 and affected units sold globally between 2024 and mid-2025. Consumers should stop using the recalled garlic press immediately and return it to any IKEA store for a full refund. If you can’t visit a store, contact IKEA for disposal instructions to receive the refund. [Source: CPSC recall notice and multiple press reports from June–August 2025][1][8][9]
