· Hayden Bookcase from Dania Furniture recalled for tip-over hazard leading to one child’s death
· Tie Dye Fur Toy Trunk Storage chest sold at At Home recalled for entrapment and suffocation hazard, no incidents or injuries reporte
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and Dania Furniture, of Boise, Idaho, are announcing the recall of the Hayden bookcase. The recalled bookcase is unstable if it is not anchored to the wall, posing tip-over and entrapment hazards that can result in death or serious injuries to children. In August 2023, Dania Furniture received one report of a tip-over incident with an unanchored bookcase that resulted in the death of a 4-year-old child.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled bookcase if it is not anchored to the wall and place it in an area that children cannot access.
About 940 of these bookcases were sold exclusively at Dania Furniture stores nationwide and online at https://daniafurniture.com/ from November 2017 through February 2024 for about $370.
The recalled Hayden bookcase contains six storage cubbies and is made of brown wood with three sliding white doors. It measures 35.5 inches in width, 16 inches in depth, and 73 inches in height. A label located on the back of each unit contains the product name and SKU number LB2225/A.
The bookcases were distributed by Dania Furniture. They were manufactured in Italy.
Contact Dania Furniture to set up a free in-home installation of a tip-over restraint kit. If mounting/anchoring services cannot be completed for any reason, or if consumers would prefer a refund, Dania Furniture will provide a full refund of the purchase price of the recalled bookcase to consumers and arrange for the pickup and/or disposal of the recalled bookcase. Dania Furniture is also contacting all purchasers directly.
CPSC urges consumers to report any related incidents to the agency at www.SaferProducts.gov.
