CPSC Recalls 9,000 FJTJBSI Dressers Over Tip-Over Risk, Violating STURDY Act

When the Consumer Product Safety Commission recalled 10,000 Timechee changing tables earlier this summer for failing stability tests, the hazard was isolated to a specialized nursery item. The agency’s latest enforcement action targets a much broader household staple: 9,000 FJTJBSI six-drawer dressers, which the CPSC recalled on September 10 for violating the same mandatory stability standards established by the STURDY Act.

The black and white wooden dressers, sold exclusively on Amazon between November 2024 and July 2026, pose a severe tip-over and entrapment risk to children if not anchored to a wall.[1][2]

The recall affects roughly 9,000 units imported by Fujian Laobosi Cross-Border E-commerce Co., Ltd., a China-based company operating under the brand name FJTJBSI. The dressers measure 42.2 inches high, 27.6 inches wide, and 15.1 inches deep, weighing approximately 68 pounds. They feature six drawers equipped with either silver or black handles, and retail for about $170.[1][2][3]

According to the CPSC, the furniture fails to meet the performance requirements of the STURDY Act, a federal law implemented to prevent clothing storage units from toppling onto young children. The legislation, which took effect for all units manufactured after September 1, 2023, requires dressers to remain upright during simulated tests that mimic a child climbing or hanging from open drawers.[2][3]

The CPSC notice warns explicitly that the FJTJBSI dressers "are unstable if they are not anchored to the wall, posing tip-over and entrapment hazards that can result in risks of serious injuries or death to children." While no injuries have been reported in connection with these specific models, the agency is urging owners to take immediate preventative action.[1][2]

Consumers are instructed to immediately stop using the units if they are not securely fastened to a wall. The agency advises moving the unanchored furniture to a secure room or area where children cannot access it until the recall process is fully completed.[1][3]

To receive a full refund of the $170 purchase price, consumers must contact FJTJBSI directly via email at FJTJBSIrecall@outlook.com. The manufacturer requires owners to permanently deface the product to ensure it cannot be reused or resold on the secondary market.[1][2]

Specifically, consumers must write the word "RECALLED" in permanent marker prominently across the dresser. They must then submit a photograph of the marked unit to the manufacturer's email address to initiate the refund process.[2][3]

Once the refund is processed, the CPSC instructs consumers to dispose of the dresser entirely. The agency emphasizes that recalled furniture should never be donated, resold, or left on the curb where another family might unknowingly claim a non-compliant unit.[2]

The enforcement action highlights the ongoing impact of the STURDY Act in clearing older, riskier inventory from the supply chain. By actively pulling non-compliant models from major online marketplaces like Amazon, regulators are systematically enforcing a standard designed to eliminate a hazard that has historically caused hundreds of injuries.[2][4]

Consumers can verify if their dresser is included in the recall by checking the product packaging for specific model numbers. The affected units are identified by the labels "LBS-XD-4-2-BLK-023" for the black version and "LBS-XD-4-2-WIT-024" for the white version.[1][2][3]
