EnHomee Dressers Recalled Because They Can Tip Over and Seriously Injure or Kill Children
CHICAGO, ILLINOIS (October 2, 2025) – EnHomee 13-Drawer Dressers have been recalled because they pose a risk of serious injury to children due to entrapment.
The recall was issued on September 18, 2025. Roughly 11,200 units were sold prior to the recall.
According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the EnHomee Dressers can become unstable if they are not adequately anchored to a wall. This creates a serious tip-over and entrapment hazard.
The dresser also failed to adhere to mandatory safety standards set by the STURDY Act. No injuries involving the product have been reported at this time.
The dressers were sold at many different stores, including Amazon, Walmart, and Wayfair.
Liability for Injuries Involving Dressers
Companies that create dressers and other consumer products have a legal obligation to ensure that those devices are reasonably safe. They must test all of their products in all of the ways that they are likely to be used and even misused. It is well known that children climb on dressers. To mitigate this potential danger, companies must abide by the STURDY Act.
- Free-standing dressers are required to be less than 27 inches tall and weigh less than 30 lbs.
- Dressers must have an appropriate warning label and instructions on how to anchor them to walls.
- Certain dressers must have an anti-tip device packaged inside.
- Dressers must meet certain stability requirements so that they don’t tip over with the simulated weight of a child.
When a company creates a product that doesn’t adhere to federal safety guidelines, this could be construed as negligence. They could be held civilly liable if any child is injured by a falling dresser. A company could also be liable if they fail to warn consumers about the latent dangers associated with the product.
Steps to Take After Injuries Involving Faulty Dressers
Many children are injured each year in dresser tip-over accidents. According to National Public Radio, “At least 234 people died as the result of clothing storage unit tip-overs between January 2000 and April 2022, according to the CPSC, 199 of whom were kids. The agency estimates that 5,300 clothing storage tip-over injuries sent people to hospitals each year from 2006 to 2021.” It is important that certain actions are taken after any child is injured by a dresser.
- Medical Evaluation: The child should undergo a medical evaluation as soon as possible. Many of the injuries associated with these accidents may not be immediately obvious.
- Product Evaluation: The product should be stored in a safe location so that it can be evaluated for defects later on.
- Legal Support: The family of any child injured by a falling dresser may be able to seek some measure of accountability through a personal injury claim.
There are many different factors that could contribute to any company creating a defective dresser. In certain cases, these products are imported from countries with different regulations. It is also possible that the manufacturer simply wasn’t aware of federal requirements. When any child is injured by a falling dresser, it is a good idea to have an experienced personal injury attorney review the affected furniture.
