The product, in the report: 6 drawer Malm bureau, espresso (3 drawers on each side, waist height) 8 drawer Hemnes dresser, black
We have the Malm 6 drawer bureau in our master bedroom - and my 2 year old opened the drawers and stepped in the bottom one to climb and the bureau tipped over (at a 90 degree angle) onto the opened drawers. My son was not injured in the incident. Less than a week later we were putting clothes away in his bedroom where he has an 8 drawer Hemnes dresser. He opened all the drawers at the same time and the dresser tipped over completly. Neither of us were injured in this instance either. When we bought the dressers neither came with the anchor straps - and i have requested them twice from IKEA and have never received them. Needless to say with this current recall i will be returning both of our dressers.
