Furniture IKEA has agreed to recall 29 million chests and dressers in the U.S. following a raft of injuries and three deaths caused by them tipping over. But it noted clearly the same kind of products will not be recalled in China.

In addition, 6.6 million units will also be recalled in Canada due to similiar reasons.

On July 22, 2015, the US Consumer Product Safety Commission and IKEA announced a repair program for the chests and dressers that included a free wall-anchoring repair kit for the MALM chests and dressers and other IKEA chests and dressers. Two tragic fatalities involving MALM chests and dressers occurred prior to the announcement of the repair program.
