What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Plain-English summary

Safavieh International LLC is recalling about 500 Audrey lingerie chests in the white smoke color with item number AMH6584A. The recalled chests measure about 18 inches wide by 15 inches deep by 30 inches high and feature one drawer and one door below the drawer. The item number is printed on a tag included in the product's original box.

The recalled chests are unstable if they are not anchored to the wall, posing a serious tip-over and entrapment hazard that can result in death or injuries to children. The chests do not comply with the performance requirements of the U.S. voluntary industry standard (ASTM F2057-14). No injuries have been reported.

The chests were sold online at Amazon.com, Overstock.com, and Wayfair.com from January 2012 through June 2016 for about $130. Consumers should immediately stop using any recalled chest that is not properly anchored to the wall and place it into an area that children cannot access. Consumers should contact Safavieh for a refund, as the firm is contacting all known purchasers directly.
