2 official CPSC notices naming Design Within Reach, 2020–2021, across furniture, covering at least 2,900 units. The most recent: Design Within Reach Arc Collection Furniture, October 28, 2021.
One notice where the recalled product is a dresser.
The recalled dressers and cabinets are unstable and can tip over if not anchored to the wall, posing serious tip-over and entrapment hazards that can result in death or injuries to children. The chests do not comply with the performance requirements of the U.S. voluntary industry standard (ASTM F2057-19).
Design Within Reach notices outside the product types above.
Surface paint on the furniture contain levels of lead that exceed the federal lead paint ban, posing a risk of lead poisoning. Lead is toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health effects.
Totals add up the figures the notices state, counting a reannounced or restated recall once. A notice that gives no number adds nothing.
