Certain dressers are not safe or carry a great hazard of tip-overs. A child can be quickly and silently crushed beneath dressers. Parents or other caregivers may not hear their cries, or they may not even have time to cry before suffering fatal injuries. Recently the Nova Series 5-Drawer Chest, Model B1428-10 was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpsc.gov\/Recalls\/2022\/Magnussen-Home-Recalls-Nova-Series-5-Drawer-Chests-Due-to-Tip-Over-and-Entrapment-Hazards\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">recalled<\/a> by Magnussen Home Furnishings, Inc. of Riverside. Like many other chests, the recalled ones are unstable when they aren\u2019t anchored to the wall, which means they present tip-over and entrapment hazards that can lead to a child\u2019s serious injuries or even death.<\/p>\n<p>The recalled Nova Series chests of drawers don\u2019t comply with performance requirements set forth by the voluntary industry standard ASTM F2057-19. They are 54-inch brown dressers with walnut veneers. They were made between August 2009 &#8211; August 2015. They measure 18 inches deep and 40 inches wide.<\/p>\n<p>You can check your dresser for a label on the back in the top left-hand corner. This label should incorporate both the month and year of manufacture as well as the model number. The recalled units have date codes that represent August 2009 and August 2015: AG09 and AG15.<\/p>\n<div class=\"read_more_link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.molllawgroup.com\/blog\/dresser-tip-overs-present-serious-hazards-to-children\/\"  title=\"Continue Reading Dresser Tip Overs Present Serious Hazards to Children\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading \u2192<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chicago parents should remain alert to the possibility of furniture tip-overs.
