Product Safety Warning Details
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to stop using UHOMEPRO 5-Drawer Dressers immediately because they are unstable if they are not anchored to the wall, posing tip-over and entrapment hazards that can result in serious injuries or death to children. The dressers violate the mandatory standard as required by the STURDY Act.
CPSC estimates that furniture tip over incidents cause an average of 10 deaths and 5,300 injuries annually.

The UHOMEPRO dressers were sold online at Walmart.com for about $100 and may have been sold on other websites.
The dressers measure 15.7 inches by 26 inches by 38.6 inches and weigh about 66 pounds. The dressers are not labeled and come in the colors white, black, and brown with five drawers.
These products were manufactured in China.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risk of injury associated with the use of thousands of types of consumer products. Deaths, injuries, and property damage from consumer product-related incidents cost the nation more than $1 trillion annually. Since the CPSC was established more than 50 years ago, it has worked to ensure the safety of consumer products, which has contributed to a decline in injuries associated with these products.
Federal law prohibits any person from selling products subject to a Commission ordered recall or a voluntary recall undertaken in consultation with the CPSC.
