Plastic furniture tip restraint kits can break leaving furniture unsecured

Plain-English summary

This recall involves plastic tip restraint kits, also called furniture straps, made by Shenzhen City Donglin E-Commerce Co., Ltd, trading as 4our Kiddies, of China. Each kit contains two white plastic brackets, a white plastic cable zip tie, two pairs of screws and two drywall anchors. About 253,500 units were sold online at Amazon.com from June 2019 through January 2026 for between $6 and $21.

The plastic in the brackets and the cable zip tie can break or degrade over time, which could lead to furniture tipping over. CPSC testing found the restraints failed to meet the industry standard for tip restraints. CPSC describes this as a hidden defect because consumers who install the product may be under a false sense of security that their furniture is secured. CPSC is aware of at least 150 incidents where consumers reported the restraints broke, including three reported tip-over incidents.

Consumers should stop using the recalled tip restraints immediately and contact 4our Kiddies for a free replacement kit made of stainless steel.

Consumers should keep children away from the furniture while waiting for the replacement, and dispose of the recalled restraint once the replacement is installed.
