The chests are unstable if not anchored to the wall, posing a tip-over hazard
April 6, 2017Safavieh International of Port Washington, N.Y., is recalling about 500 lingerie chests.
The chests are unstable if not anchored to the wall, posing a serious tip-over and entrapment hazard that can result in death or injuries to children. Thus, they do not comply with the performance requirements of the U.S. voluntary industry standard (ASTM F2057-14).
No incidents or injuries have been reported.
This recall involves the Audrey lingerie chest in the white smoke color with item number AMH6584A. The item number is printed on a tag that is included in the products original box.
The recalled chests have one drawer and one door below the drawer, and measure about 18 inches wide by 15 inches deep by 30 inches high.
The chests, manufactured in China, were sold online at Amazon.com, Overstock.com and Wayfair.com from January 2012, through June 2016, for about $130.
What to do
Consumers should immediately stop using any recalled chest that is not properly anchored to the wall and place it in an area that children cannot access. Contact Safavieh for a refund. The firm is contacting all known purchasers directly.
