Vanguard Furniture is recalling approximately 170 Compendium Collection Bow Front chests of drawers. These eight-drawer, beech-wood chests weigh about 250 pounds and measure 36 inches high by 75 inches wide. They are being recalled because they are unstable and do not meet industry safety standards if they are not anchored to a wall, which can lead to the chest tipping over onto a child. Consumers should immediately stop using any of these chests that are not anchored and move them to an area children cannot access.
The chest of drawers can tip over if it is not securely anchored to the wall, potentially trapping a child underneath. This poses a serious risk of suffocation, crushing injuries, or death.
Consumers should immediately stop using any recalled chests that are not properly anchored to the wall and place them into an area that children cannot access. Contact Vanguard Furniture for a free, in-home installation of a repair to prevent the risk of a tip-over. Vanguard Furniture is contacting all known purchasers directly.
Vanguard Furniture Company Inc., of Conover, N.C.
Vanguard Furniture Compendium Bow Front Dresser Model Number 8521D
