Consumers Are Urged to Stop Using the Stools Immediately and Keep Them Away From Children
Two types of toddler stools sold on Amazon have been recalled in the U.S. after reports of injuries, with more than 130,000 units affected. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced recalls this week for Woodure-branded children’s tower kitchen step stools and HARPPA’s Nordi foldable toddler towers, saying both “pose a risk of serious injury and death due to tip over, fall and entrapment hazards. The Woodure recall covers 91,000 units sold on Amazon between July 2024 and June 2026 for $60 to $100. Affected models are WD1764, WD1357, and WD1720 — plywood stools measuring 18 inches deep, 16.9 inches wide, and 34.6 inches tall, with the model number engraved on the underside of the bottom step.
Woodure has received 22 reports of instability or tip-overs, including 15 injuries involving scrapes, cuts, and bruises. Consumers are urged to stop using the stools immediately and keep them away from children. The company offers a repair kit at 844-687-1918, woodure-service@hotmail.com, or via wwoodure.com/recall.
