These recalled restraints are also known as furniture straps, and their plastic brackets and cable ties can degrade and break over time. These defective restraints create serious tip-over and entrapment hazards that could lead to serious injuries or death to children or to elderly adults.

About 55,170 of these restraint kits were sold by Amazon beginning in September 2019. 


Stop using and relying on these recalled plastic tip restraints and keep children away from any furniture secured with them. Contact Cranach Hardware at 1-888-798-9487 or via the email [email protected] to obtain a free stainless steel replacement kit. To receive the replacement, you must email photographic evidence showing that the recalled product has been destroyed or discarded.
