Approximately 940 Hayden Bookcases are being recalled due to stability issues that pose a tip-over risk to children if the unit is not anchored to a wall. The bookcases, which are 73 inches tall and feature brown wood with three sliding white doors, were sold exclusively at Dania Furniture stores and online from November 2017 through February 2024. In August 2023, a 4-year-old child died in a tip-over incident involving one of these unanchored bookcases. Dania Furniture is offering a free in-home installation of a tip-over restraint kit or a full refund upon the return of the product.
The bookcase is unstable if it is not anchored to the wall, posing tip-over and entrapment hazards that can lead to serious injury or death. One death of a 4-year-old child has already been reported following a tip-over incident.
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. 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 upon its return, and arrange for the pickup and/or disposal of the recalled bookcase. Dania Furniture is also contacting all purchasers directly.
Measures 35.5" W x 16" D x 73" H. Contains six storage cubbies.
