What’s wrong with it?
The chests 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 F2057-17).

Remedy options include a free self-install repair kit, free in-home installation of repair kit or free pick-up of the chest.
