Stabilizer for a piece of furniture, such as a dresser or television, includes an elongate portion, a top flap or plate flexibly connected at an upper end of the rigid portion, and a bottom flap or plate flexibly connected at a lower end of the rigid portion. An outer planar surface of the top plate is attached to the piece of furniture while an outer planar surface of the bottom plate is attached to a vertical support surface behind the piece of furniture. When the stabilizer is attached to the piece of furniture at a location above the location at which the stabilizer is attached to the vertical support surface and the stabilizer is in a vertical orientation, the stabilizer provides resistance to tipping of the piece of furniture away from the vertical support surface.
