What to do
Consumers should immediately stop using any recalled chest that is not properly anchored to the wall and place it in an area that children cannot access. Safavieh will provide packaging and pre-paid shipping labels so that consumers can remove the chest's drawer slides and return them to the firm for a full refund.
