School Specialty Recalls Childcraft Furniture Tip Restraints Due to Tip-Over Risk
School Specialty recalls Childcraft furniture with plastic tip restraint kits that can break, causing tip-overs and serious injury or death. Consumers must stop using and replace with stainless steel kits.
The recalled plastic tip restraint kits (also referred to as furniture straps) can break or degrade, posing tip-over and entrapment hazards. Should the defective plastic tip restraints break, consumers could be at risk of serious injuries or death. This is a hidden defect because consumers who purchase and install this product may be under a false sense of security that their furniture is safe from a tip-over incident.
