“Bestar Dream Dresser Recall: Tip-over Hazard.” GovInfoNow, updated October 11, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/4170-bestar-dream-dresser-recall-tip-over-hazard. Based on CPSC recall #6740 (https://www.cpsc.gov/Recalls/2016/BESTAR-Recalls-Juvenile-Dressers).

Why it’s dangerous

The dressers are unstable and can tip over without a restraint strap attached. This instability poses a serious tip-over and entrapment hazard that has resulted in cuts and bruises to children, with the potential for death or serious injuries.

Who’s affected

Parents and guardians who purchased juvenile five-drawer dressers, specifically those sold as part of the Juvenil four-piece children's bedroom set. Children are at risk of entrapment or injury from tip-over events.

How to tell if you have this one

Check if you own a Bestar Dream Juvenile Dresser (model numbers 49250-1152 in brown or 49250-1117 in white). These units are 48 inches high, 30 inches wide, and 16 inches deep, with melamine resin surfaces and matte chrome drawer handles. Look for UPC number 063753045292 on the box or brochure if you bought them online at appliancesconnection.com, Cymax.com, or Wayfair.com between June 2014 and October 2015.
