The model name is printed on a label on the inside back of the lamp near the light bulb. The article number is printed on the lamp's packaging. The plastic wall-mounted children's lamps measure about 11 inches high by 11 inches wide. They have a 7 ft. long electrical cord with an in-line switch and take a 25-watt light bulb. 
Problem A 16-month-old child in a crib died after getting entangled in the lamp's cord. In a separate incident, a 15-month-old child in a crib became entangled in the lamp's cord and nearly strangled. In both incidents, which occurred in Europe, the lamp cord was pulled into the crib by the infants, creating a strangulation hazard. 
Distribution They were sold exclusively at IKEA stores nationwide, in IKEA's catalog and online at ikea-usa.com for between $10 and $13.
