Ikea Recalls 29 Million Dressers After 6 Toddlers Die

Ikea announced that it is voluntarily recalling 29 million dressers and chests after at six children have been killed when a dresser toppled over and crushed them.

The Scandinavian furniture chain has released a statement saying that the chests and dressers should be attached to a wall to prevent them from toppling over. Ikea says anyone who owns a chest or dresser that is not mounted to a wall should remove them out of reach from children.

Ikea is now offering free kits to attach the chests and dressers to a wall. Customers can also ask for a refund.

The US Consumer Product Safety Commission says that at least six children, all of whom were 3 years old or younger, were killed when an Ikea chest or dresser fell on them.
