VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) – IKEA is recalling hundreds of thousands of RUND drinking glasses after a dozen broke while people were using them, causing minor injuries.

IKEA says 256,000 RUND handmade glasses have been sold worldwide between October 2009 and March 2010.

Five people were left with cuts. If you have the glasses you are asked to stop using them right away, return them and ask for a refund.
