消费品安全委员会警告停用Cranach家具防倾倒固定带：已报115起断裂、6起倾倒
美国消费品安全委员会（CPSC）在华盛顿发布警告：消费者应立即停止使用 Cranach Hardware 生产的塑料家具防倾倒固定带（亦称家具固定带）。这类固定带本用于把家具固定在墙上、防止倾倒，但其塑料部件会随时间断裂或老化；儿童一旦与用这种固定带固定的家具互动，家具仍可能倾倒。
CPSC 的检测显示，这批缺陷固定带未达到防倾倒装置行业标准 ASTM F3096-23 的要求。委员会表示，这是一个隐蔽缺陷：消费者安装后会误以为家具已经稳固。截至警告发布，CPSC 已知至少115起消费者报告固定带断裂的事件，其中包括6起家具倾倒事件；幼儿若与这类家具互动，可能受到严重伤害。
每套固定带包含两个塑料支架（一个连接家具、一个连接墙面）、一条塑料扎带、两组长短不同的螺丝和两个石膏板锚栓。产品通过 Amazon.com 售卖，价格按包装内数量在6至30美元之间，产品在中国制造。CPSC 表示，制造商 Cranach Hardware 尚未就可接受的召回方案作出回应。
CPSC 敦促消费者立即停用、从家具上拆除并丢弃这批缺陷固定带，改用符合 ASTM F3096-23 标准的防倾倒装置固定家具。委员会的「Anchor It!」专题网站提供免费的家具固定教学材料；消费者可通过 SaferProducts.gov 向 CPSC 报告产品缺陷或伤害事件。

CPSC Warns Consumers to Stop Using Cranach Tip Restraint Kits: 115 Breakage Reports, Six Tip-Overs
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers in Washington to immediately stop using defective plastic tip restraint kits, also called furniture straps, manufactured by Cranach Hardware. The kits are meant to anchor furniture to a wall to prevent tip-overs, but the plastic can break or degrade over time, and furniture could tip over if a child interacts with furniture secured by the product.
CPSC testing found that the defective tip restraints failed to meet the requirements of ASTM F3096-23, the industry standard for tip restraints. The commission called it a hidden defect, because consumers who install the product may have a false sense of security that their furniture is safe from a tip-over incident. CPSC is aware of at least 115 incidents in which consumers reported that the kits broke, including six reported tip-over incidents, and says a young child could be severely injured by furniture secured with the defective restraints.
Each kit contains two plastic brackets, one for connection to the furniture and one for connection to the wall, a plastic cable zip tie, two pairs of screws of different lengths, and two drywall anchors. The kits have been sold on Amazon.com for between $6 and $30, depending on the number of units in the package, and were manufactured in China. CPSC said the manufacturer, Cranach Hardware, has not responded to a request for an acceptable recall.
CPSC urges consumers to immediately stop using the kits, remove them from furniture and dispose of them, and to secure furniture with tip restraints that comply with ASTM F3096-23. The commission's Anchor It! website offers free educational materials on anchoring furniture, and incidents involving injury or product defects can be reported to CPSC at SaferProducts.gov.
