The Hazard
CLASS 1 WARNING: TIP-OVER AND ENTRAPMENT
17 Stories Furniture is recalling their 18-drawer dressers. These dressers can tip over if they are not attached to the wall. This poses a serious risk of injury or death to children. The dressers do not meet safety standards.
None reported
Why This Happens: Technical Breakdown
These dressers are unstable. If they aren’t anchored to a wall, they can easily tip over, especially if a child climbs on them or opens multiple drawers at once. This can lead to the dresser falling on the child, causing serious injuries or even death. The design of the dresser makes it prone to tipping, and it doesn’t meet the required safety standards to prevent these accidents.
The main problem is that the dressers are top-heavy and not sturdy enough on their own. Without being attached to the wall, the weight distribution is off. This makes them easy to topple over with even a small amount of force. This recall is happening because the dressers don’t meet the safety rules designed to keep kids safe from furniture tip-overs.
