Children’s Tower Stools Linked to 21 Reports of Injuries

In April 2026, the CPSC announced 3 separate recalls of children’s tower stools sold on Amazon by 3 China-based importers: Wiifo, TOETOL HOME, and AMZCMJ DGD.

The 3 recalls were issued on the same day, April 23, 2026, and use identical hazard language. The CPSC warned that the tower stools can collapse or tip over while in use, and that a child’s torso can fit through the openings on the tower’s sides, posing a risk of serious injury and death due to tip over, fall and entrapment hazards.

Across the 3 recalls, the importers reported 47 incidents to the CPSC, with 21 reported injuries. The reported injuries so far have been relatively minor, including contusions, cuts, scrapes, and splinters. The recalls were issued because of the potential for serious injury and death to young children.

Comparison of the 3 Children’s Tower Stool Recalls

The 3 recalls share identical hazard language and were announced on the same day, but each covers a different brand, model, and price point. The table below summarizes the differences:

What Are the Two Failure Modes in These Tower Stools?

The CPSC identified 2 distinct defects in all 3 recalled tower stools. Each one creates a different mechanism of injury for the young children who use these products.

Failure mode #1 — Collapse and tip-over. The wooden frame can come apart or fall over while a child is standing on the platform. The child is dropped from a height of about 3 feet onto a hard kitchen floor, often tile, stone, or hardwood, with countertops, cabinets, and appliances within striking distance on the way down. For a toddler, that fall is roughly head-height. A fall from this height has been linked to concussions, traumatic brain injuries, skull fractures, dental injuries, broken arms, broken wrists, broken collarbones, and lacerations from striking surrounding surfaces.

Failure mode #2 — Entrapment through side openings. The openings on the tower’s sides are large enough for a young child’s torso to fit through. If a child slips partway through, the head can catch above while the body is suspended below. This position can compress the airway, restrict airflow, or cut off blood flow to the brain. Positional asphyxiation injuries of this kind can be fatal in minutes, which is why the CPSC explicitly warns of death, not just injury, in all 3 recall notices.

The CPSC describes the combined hazard the same way in all 3 recall notices:

“The recalled tower stools can collapse or tip over while in use, and a child’s torso can fit through the openings on the tower’s sides, posing a risk of serious injury and death due to tip over, fall and entrapment hazards.”

How Dangerous Are These Injuries for Young Children?

Tower stools are used by toddlers, typically between 18 months and 4 years old. At that age, a fall from 34 to 36 inches onto a tile or hardwood kitchen floor is not the same as an older child or adult tripping.

Toddlers have larger heads relative to their body weight, weaker neck muscles, and softer skulls, which means falls from this height have been linked to concussions, traumatic brain injuries, skull fractures, dental injuries, and broken bones.

The entrapment hazard is even more serious. Unlike a fall, where a child often cries out and a parent can respond, a child caught in a side opening may be unable to call for help. Time-to-rescue is the determining factor in positional asphyxiation outcomes, and the window is short.

Texas families with young children should not continue using these products, even if the stool has not failed yet. The defect is in the design of the openings and the structural integrity of the frame, not in how the stool is being used.

Which Products Are Affected?

Three brands of children’s tower stools are covered by the recalls:

• Wiifo Children’s Tower Stools (Recall 26-430) — Model LT005, white/natural/light wood finishes, about 18 inches deep by 18 inches wide by 34 inches tall, about 9,700 units sold from June 2022 through March 2026 for about $60
• TOETOL HOME Tower Stools (Recall 26-432) — Model DETD0001, white/gray/dark wood colors, about 20 inches deep by 15 inches wide by 36 inches tall, about 3,000 units sold from October 2024 through March 2026 for about $130
• AMZCMJ DGD Children’s Tower Stools (Recall 26-433) — Foldable design that converts into a table and chair with a blackboard, about 15 inches deep by 22 inches wide by 34 inches tall, about 130 units sold from February 2025 through March 2026 for between $85 and $100

Where Were They Sold?

All 3 recalled tower stools were sold exclusively on Amazon.com and shipped to consumers nationwide, including across Texas. Many parents purchased these stools for use in their kitchens. Because Amazon ships nationwide, the actual number of recalled stools in Texas homes is unknown.

If you have one of these stools at home, the CPSC says to stop using it immediately and contact the importer for a full refund. For updates, see the official CPSC recall pages for Wiifo, TOETOL HOME, and AMZCMJ DGD.

How Many People Were Affected?

Across the 3 recalls, the CPSC documented 47 incidents and 21 reported injuries. Wiifo received 22 reports of stools collapsing with 6 injuries. TOETOL HOME received 18 reports of collapsing with 11 injuries. AMZCMJ DGD received 7 reports of children falling from the stool or becoming entrapped, with 4 injuries.

These are nationally reported figures. The CPSC does not publish a Texas-specific breakdown for these recalls. Many product injuries to young children, especially those treated at home or urgent care, never reach the CPSC, so the actual number of injured children is likely higher than what has been confirmed.

Legal Help for Texas Families With Injured Children

Texas is a major Amazon delivery market, and these tower stools shipped freely to Texas homes for years before the recalls. With Texas families increasingly buying children’s products on Amazon rather than in stores, the risk of these defective stools ending up in Texas kitchens is very real.

When a defective children’s product causes a young child to fall, suffer a head injury, or become entrapped, parents may have legal options against both the importer and the manufacturer. You may be able to seek compensation for medical bills, future treatment, pain and suffering, and other damages. A Texas children’s product injury lawyer can help you understand your rights.
