About 9,000 FJTJBSI six-drawer dressers sold on Amazon are being recalled because they can tip over and trap children if they are not anchored to a wall, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission announced September 10. According to the recall notice, the dressers violate the mandatory federal safety standard for clothing storage units required by the STURDY Act.
The recall follows two similar ones in the past month. CPSC recalled about 8,981 DUMOS nine-drawer dressers on August 13 and about 4,396 Gizoon six-drawer dressers on September 3, and both were also sold on Amazon. Together, the three recalls cover more than 22,000 dressers, and none lists an injury. On September 3, CPSC also recalled about 261 Alanca six-drawer dressers sold on Wayfair for the same violation.
For families who furnished a nursery or a child's bedroom with a low-cost dresser ordered online, the pattern raises a question the recall notices cannot answer on their own. Beyond checking one brand's packaging code, how can a parent tell whether the dresser already in the house is stable enough for a child who climbs?
A 68-Pound Dresser Sold for Nearly Two Years
The recalled FJTJBSI dressers are black or white wood units with six drawers and silver or black handles. CPSC lists them at about 42.2 inches high, 27.6 inches wide and 15.1 inches long, with a weight of 68 pounds. A label on the packaging carries the code LBS-XD-4-2-BLK-023 or LBS-XD-4-2-WIT-024.
They sold on Amazon.com from November 2024 through July 2026 for about $170. The retailer is Fujian Laobosi Cross-Border E-commerce Co., Ltd., of China, doing business as FJTJBSI, and the recall number is 26-764.
The notice tells owners to "stop using the recalled dressers immediately if they are not anchored to the wall," move them to an area children cannot reach, and contact FJTJBSI for a full refund. Owners will be asked to write RECALLED on the dresser in permanent marker, email a photo of the marked dresser to [email protected], and then dispose of it.
The sales window matters. The federal rule applies to clothing storage units manufactured after September 1, 2023, and the FJTJBSI dressers went on sale more than a year later. MedicalDaily's earlier report on the Gizoon and Alanca recalls explained the law behind the standard. The FJTJBSI recall shows that noncompliant units kept reaching online shoppers well after the rule took effect.
The Stability Tests a Compliant Dresser Must Pass
Under CPSC's clothing storage unit requirements, a free-standing unit that is at least 27 inches tall, weighs at least 30 pounds, and has at least 3.2 cubic feet of enclosed storage must pass three stability tests. At 42.2 inches and 68 pounds, the FJTJBSI dresser is well above the height and weight thresholds.
The first test opens the drawers, loads them with weight simulating clothing at 8.5 pounds per cubic foot of storage, and holds for 30 seconds. The second test applies 10 pounds of horizontal force at the highest hand-hold, up to 56 inches high. The third sets the rear legs on a block to mimic carpet and hangs a 60-pound weight, representing a child, from the drawer or door most likely to cause a tip-over.
Parents cannot run those tests at home, but two other requirements are easier to check. A compliant dresser must come packaged with an anti-tip device that meets a separate ASTM standard, and it must carry warning labels with specific statements and pictograms. If a dresser has interlocks, which limit how many drawers can open at once, they must work without any extra step from the owner. A missing label or an empty hardware bag does not prove a dresser fails, and a label alone does not prove it passes, but either gap is a good reason to check recall lists and anchor the unit.
Toddlers Who Climb Face the Greatest Danger
CPSC staff counted 234 deaths from clothing storage unit tip-overs from January 2000 through April 2022, including 199 children, according to the agency's announcement of the new standard in October 2022. Staff also estimated 84,100 tip-over injuries treated in hospital emergency departments from 2006 through 2021, an average of about 5,300 a year, with 72 percent involving children.
Those figures largely predate the mandatory standard, so they describe the hazard rather than how often compliant dressers fail. The FJTJBSI, Gizoon and DUMOS recall notices each list no incidents or injuries.
CPSC says young children face the greatest risk of injury or death from these tip-overs, particularly toddlers who pull out drawers and climb them like steps. Entrapment is part of the danger, because a child can be pinned under a fallen dresser rather than simply struck by it. CPSC also advises keeping toys and other tempting items off the tops of furniture, where children may climb to reach them.
Refunds Run Through an Email Inbox, So Keep Records
Families can search their Amazon order history for FJTJBSI, Gizoon or DUMOS dressers, since packaging is often thrown away. Until a refund is processed, a recalled dresser that is not anchored should be moved to a room children cannot enter.
The FJTJBSI notice lists only an email address for consumers, with no phone number, so it helps to save the order confirmation, the photo you submit and any replies. CPSC offers a recall complaint form for consumers who believe a company is not responding to a remedy request, and injuries or near misses can be reported at SaferProducts.gov.
For every tall dresser in the home, recalled or not, anchoring it to the wall directly addresses the tip-over hazard. CPSC's Anchor It campaign explains how to secure furniture and televisions.
Recalled dressers should not be resold or given away. Federal law prohibits selling products subject to a CPSC recall, the agency notes.
CPSC has not said whether more marketplace dresser recalls are pending, and MedicalDaily will track new actions. In the meantime, parents of toddlers can lower the risk by checking order history, anchoring tall furniture and keeping climbing temptations off dresser tops.
Key Questions Answered
Which dressers are being recalled? About 9,000 FJTJBSI six-drawer wood dressers in black or white, sold on Amazon from November 2024 through July 2026. The packaging code is LBS-XD-4-2-BLK-023 or LBS-XD-4-2-WIT-024.
Has anyone been hurt? No incidents or injuries have been reported, according to CPSC.
What is the hazard? The dressers are unstable if they are not anchored to a wall, posing tip-over and entrapment hazards that can seriously injure or kill children.
Are the other recent dresser recalls connected? They involve different sellers, but DUMOS dressers recalled August 13 and Gizoon dressers recalled September 3 were also sold on Amazon and violated the same standard.
How can I tell if my dresser meets the standard? Covered dressers must come with an anti-tip device and carry warning labels. Neither guarantees compliance, so check recall lists and anchor tall furniture.
How do I get my money back? Email FJTJBSI at [email protected], write RECALLED on the dresser, send a photo, and dispose of it. CPSC has a complaint form if a seller does not respond.
Should I anchor dressers that were not recalled? Yes. CPSC's Anchor It campaign urges families to secure dressers, other tall furniture, and televisions to the wall.
