Childcraft furniture tip restraint kits recalled for tip-over risk

School Specialty included plastic tip restraint kits with Childcraft furniture to anchor it to walls. The plastic brackets and straps can break or degrade over time, which could cause furniture to tip over. No injuries have been reported, but a broken restraint could create a serious fall hazard, especially for children.

  • Contact School Specialty for a free stainless steel replacement tip restraint kit.
  • Keep children away from any Childcraft furniture using the recalled plastic restraints until you install the replacement.
  • Once the replacement arrives, remove the old plastic restraint and install the new stainless steel kit following the included instructions.
  • Throw away the old plastic restraint kit in your household trash.

Hazard

The recalled plastic tip restraint kits (also referred to as furniture straps) can break or degrade, posing tip-over and entrapment hazards. Should the defective plastic tip restraints break, consumers could be at risk of serious injuries or death. 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.

Remedy
Consumers should stop using the recalled plastic tip restraints immediately and contact School Specialty for a free replacement tip restraint kit made of stainless steel. Consumers should keep children away from any furniture secured using the recalled plastic tip restraints 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. School Specialty is contacting all consumers who purchased Childcraft furniture directly and mailing two replacement tip restraint kits to those consumers along with that notice.
Sold at
Childcraft furniture (which included the recalled tip restraint kits) sold through School Specialty stores nationwide and online at www.schoolspecialty.com from July 2024 through December 2025 for between $1,250 and $4,800.
