Toy Boxes
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Palliser Furniture Ltd. is recalling toy boxes with model numbers 580-283, 581-283, 582-283, 583-283, 584-283, 589-283, and 598-283. These toy boxes, which measure approximately 36 inches long by 19 inches wide and 21 inches high and come in finishes including white with color inserts, natural maple with various panel colors, and natural cherry, pose hazards to young children because the hinged lid can fall suddenly and spaces at the hinge can pinch, crush, or lacerate fingers. The lids do not have the required supports to prevent entrapment and strangulation hazards.
Affected consumers can identify recalled toy boxes by looking for a manufacturer's label inside or on the back that displays "Palliser" and one of the model numbers listed above. According to the recall, consumers should stop children from using these toy boxes immediately and contact Palliser for either a free replacement toy box or a $50 refund.

The toy box's lid can fall suddenly, posing entrapment and strangulation hazards to young children. In addition, spaces at the end of the hinge on the lid can cause pinched, crushed and lacerated fingers. The toy chest voluntary standard requires toy boxes or chests with hinged lids to have lid supports that keep the lid from falling suddenly onto the head of a child, preventing an entrapment and strangulation hazard. The hinges also must minimize any spaces that could allow a child's finger to be pinched, crushed or lacerated.
Consumers should stop children from using these toy boxes immediately, and contact Palliser for a free replacement toy box or a $50 refund.
All the toy boxes have a manufacturer's label inside or on the back with "Palliser" and the model number written on it. The model numbers are: 580-283, 581-283, 582-283, 583-283, 584-283, 589-283 and 598-283. The toy boxes measure about 36 inches long by 19 inches wide and 21 inches high. They have the following finishes: white with small color inserts in the knobs or with large color inserts on the front panel; natural maple or natural maple with white, denim or green front panels; and natural cherry.
