Units: About 58,000; 51,000 in the United States and 7,000 in Canada

This recall involves a cube-shaped children's folding tent with model number 90192009. The brand name BUSA and IKEA and the model number are printed on a sewn-in label attached to an interior seam in the tent.

The problem, in CPSC's words

The steel wire frame of the tent can break, producing sharp wire ends that can protrude through the tent fabric, posing a laceration or puncture hazard.
