The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

  1. No one hurt

    Made Dec 15, 2011, sent to the company Dec 27, 2011, published by CPSC Jan 18, 2012

    The product, in the report: Two shelf storage unit has two large storage shelves, hardboard back and rabbet and dado construction. Dimensions: 30”H x 36”W x 12”D

    We purchased five toy shelving units from Alison’s Montessori. Immediately after purchase we expressed concern to [REDACTED] (our contact at the company) that the shelves were insecure. He assured us that the shelves met all safety standards. Unfortunately, our worries have been confirmed over the last few months. My two year old daughter was easily able to tip the shelves. Had I not been right there, she would have been caught underneath the shelf. Other very young children have also been able to easily tip the shelves over.
