    SWEDISH furniture giant Ikea has refunded just a fraction for the millions of dressers it recalled after toddlers were killed by these toppling pieces of furniture, the company said on Tuesday.

    More than a year after its initial recall announcement, the company disclosed that it had either given refunds or sent crews to help families secure about a million of the estimated 17 million pieces of furniture that it said were at risk of tipping over.
