What was recalled

The toy chests are wooden and were manufactured with a natural birch or oak finish. The chests measure 36 inches in length, 20 inches in width and 21 inches in height. A sticker on the toy chests reads "MADE IN CHINA" and "SC51CT-MP."

Hazard

The toy chest's lid support hinges can fail, allowing the lid to fall onto a child's head, neck, fingers or hands. In addition, spaces at the end of the hinge on the lid can cause pinch, crush or laceration injuries to children's fingers.

Injuries

CPSC and Raymond Oak Inc. have received one report of a 7-year-old girl whose finger was bruised after the toy chest lid slammed down on her left index finger.

Made in

China

Where it was sold
