A popular storage unit sold at Wal-Mart and Ollie’s Stores has recently been recalled.
Marketed as the "Home Trend Kids 9 Canvas Bin Boys and Girls Organizer," the units were manufactured in China and sold by Jetmax International Limited in Irving Texas.
The Consumer Products Safety Division said
the storage rack can easily tip over and trap a young child. One report of death occurred involving an 8-month old boy who was asphyxiated after he pulled on the storage rack and it fell over on him. The top rail landed on the infant’s neck. No other incidents have been reported.
"This is a wooden storage rack with three levels and nine removable canvas totes. The handles on each side of the rack are also made of wood. The boy’s storage rack has natural color wood with red, yellow, green, and navy canvas totes. The girl’s storage rack has white colored wood with pink, yellow, lime, and purple canvas totes."
If you have this item in your home, you should immediately stop your children from using the recalled storage racks and contact Jetmax to receive a free repair kit. The repair kit will correct the stability of the storage racks. You can contact the company’s recall site here and email them here. More info is inside the CPSD press release by clicking here.
