- April 2026 — CPSC announced recall number 26-433 for AMZCMJ DGD Children’s Tower Stools after warning that the stools can collapse or tip over during use and that a child’s torso can fit through side openings, creating serious fall and entrapment hazards. The recall involved about 130 units, followed seven reported incidents, including four injuries such as contusions, splinters, and scrapes, and instructed consumers to stop using the stools immediately and seek a full refund [1].
What Is the Risk?
A. What Is It
The recalled product is an AMZCMJ DGD-branded children’s tower stool. It is a wooden kitchen stool designed to help children stand at counter height.
The stool is foldable and converts into a table and chair. It also includes a blackboard feature.
B. How Injury Happens
The main danger is structural instability. The stool can collapse or tip over while a child is using it.
A second danger comes from the side openings. CPSC said a child’s torso can fit through those openings, creating an entrapment hazard that raises the risk of serious injury or death.
C. Reported Harm
The firm reported seven incidents involving children falling from the stool or becoming entrapped. Four injuries were reported, including contusions, splinters, and scrapes.
Even when an incident does not end in a catastrophic injury, a tip-over or entrapment event involving a child’s furniture product can still raise serious product liability concerns. Claims often turn on whether the design was reasonably safe for normal household use.
D. Who May Be Liable
- The importer, SiPaiSaiErDianZiShangWu (ShenZhen) YouXianGongSi, doing business as AMZCMJ DGD
- Any distributor or seller involved in placing the product into the stream of commerce
- Other responsible supply-chain entities, where applicable
