Snooty so and so.
I've got Malm bedside cabinets (because Ikea didn't pick them up after they arrived damaged) and they do tip over when you open the top drawer fully even, with the bottom drawer full and closed. That's not being precious over safety, it's incredibly bad design. I wouldn't be shocked if one did fall over by itself.
The drawer fronts are way too heavy compared to the weight of the frame that holds them. If I had anything with more than 2 drawers in that was Malm I'd've chucked it out.
We resorted to adding planking to the cabinet we use to stop it wobbling every time you look in it.
Nice of you to make light of dead kids though.
Classy.

Unsure if they sell nail guns, its the parents that need securing to the wall for letting their "prince and princesses" run around like hooligans.
RESPECT is what is needed and a strap for their neck...................only the ones with the little lunatics will take offence to this

Can you give me an example of furniture spontaneously toppling?
Also, to respond to the other hysterics, if this furniture is going to attack anyone within striking range, why would you buy it?
We've got the massive 6 drawer version as well as 3 and 2 versions. Even without a kid climbing it, open too many drawers and they do tip on their own.
As a point though, if you've got kids, please use wall kits or securing straps for everything. Flat screen TVs are a kid hazard and need secured - essential when free standing on a low unit.

Cheers. I have the ikea malm set that have been recalled in the USA as they topple over. In the UK, they have advised securing the chest of drawers to the wall

I can't remember ever coming across furniture that spontaneously toppled over. It only topples over if it's pushed or pulled. Will you also expect Ikea to repair damaged walls when precious decides to pull out a drawer, jump up and down in it and pull the anchors out of the wall?
You'll be wanting pedestrians anchored to the pavement with strong elastic next so they can't walk into the road and get knocked over.

Without these kits, Ikea brings a whole new meaning to shouting "timber!"

How true that is. The lower a parents education, the more self-righteous.
