The Consumer Product Safety Commission has announced the recall of millions of furniture anchors because the zip tie that is part of the kit can become brittle or break.
The kits were made by New Age Industries or New Age and came with a zip tie, two screws and two metal brackets.
The CPSC did not provide an exact number of kits that are under the recall other than to say “millions.”
They came with clothing storage units sold by dozens of companies:
- American Drew
- American Woodcrafters
- Amini Innovation Corporation
- Ashley Furniture Industries, LLC
- Aspenhome
- Austin Group Furniture, LLC
- Avalon International Inc., LLC
- Bassett Furniture Industries, Inc.

The units were made in Vietnam. There is a manufacture date on a sticker or stamped directly on the unit. The recall affects items made starting November 2019 or later.
The packaging has “Manufactured by New Age Industries” printed on it.
If the clothing storage unit has the correct date and if the kit has a plastic tie, contact Alliance4Safety for a replacement and keep children away from the unit until the kit is replaced, the CPSC reported.
