Swedish furniture company IKEA has agreed to pay $50 million to three families whose children were killed when the company’s dressers fell onto them.

The settlement, reached after two days of mediation, resolves the wrongful death lawsuits brought by the families of the three toddlers crushed and asphyxiated by the IKEA brand MALM dresser: 2-year-old Curren Collas, of West Chester; 2-year-old Camden Ellis of Snohomish, Washington; and 2-year-old Ted McGee from Apple Valley, Minnesota.
