4our Kiddies plastic tip restraint kits recalled for tip-over hazard
What this means
4our Kiddies plastic furniture straps (tip restraint kits) can break or degrade over time, allowing furniture to tip over and potentially trap or injure children or elderly people. The plastic brackets and cables fail to meet safety standards, and CPSC has received reports of at least 150 incidents where these straps broke, including three furniture tip-overs.

The agency's original wording
The recalled plastic tip restraint kits (also referred to as furniture straps) can break or degrade, posing tip-over and entrapment hazards that can result in serious injuries or death to children or elderly consumers interacting with furniture that is secured to the wall with the defective plastic tip restraints. This is a hidden defect because consumers who purchase and install this product may be under a false sense of security that their furniture is safe from a tip-over incident.
Consumers should stop using 4our Kiddies plastic tip restraints immediately and contact 4our Kiddies for a free replacement tip restraint kit made of stainless steel. Consumers should keep children away from the unit while waiting for a replacement tip restraint kit and should dispose of the recalled tip restraint in their household trash once they have installed the replacement tip restraint.
