A Coaster Company of America label can be found on the bed frame of the top bunk.
Which products are included?
The recall involves model 2008, 2056, 2256 and 2258 bunk beds. The metal bunk beds were sold in twin/twin and twin/full sizes. A Coaster Company of America label can be found on the bed frame of the top bunk. The enamel finishes come in blue, black, red, yellow, or white.
Confirm these details on the official CPSC noticeWhy it was recalled
A gap between the step of the built-in ladder and the top bunk allows enough room for a child's body to slip through but will not allow for a child's head to pass through. This poses a serious strangulation risk. Federal standards for bunk beds are designed to protect children against entrapment and strangulation.
Incidents and injuries
None reported.
Official remedy
Consumers should stop using the bunk beds immediately and call Coaster of America for a free repair kit.
