Children’s Wooden Storage Rack Recalled by Jetmax Following Child’s Death

WASHINGTON. -The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission announced that Jetmax Int'l Ltd., of Irving, TX, is voluntarily recalling about 36,000 boy’s and girl’s wooden storage racks with canvas totes.

CPSC has received one report of a death involving an 8-month-old boy who was asphyxiated after he pulled on the storage rack and it fell over on him. The top rail landed on the infant’s neck. No other incidents have been reported.

The storage rack is wooden with three levels and nine removable canvas totes. There are wooden handles on each side of the rack. The boy’s storage rack has natural color wood with red, yellow, green and navy canvas totes. The girl’s storage rack has white colored wood with pink, yellow, lime and purple canvas totes.

Wal-Mart sold the storage rack, made in China, under the brand “Home Trend Kids 9 Canvas Bin Boy’s and Girl’s Organizers.”

The CPSC said consumers should immediately stop children from using the recalled storage racks and contact Jetmax  to receive a free repair kit that adds stability to the base.
