A recall has been issued for over 580,000 beds, sold by various retailers, including Walmart and Wayfair, due to the potential risk of breaking, sagging, or collapsing during use, thereby posing a hazard for falls and resulting injuries.
Home Design, the manufacturer of these beds, has received 128 reports of instances where the beds sagged, broke, or collapsed, leading to 36 reported injuries.
The recall, disclosed in a notice by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission on January 18, pertains to approximately 527,000 beds sold in the US and around 56,000 units sold in Canada.
The affected products encompass various models and sizes of upholstered low-profile standard and platform beds manufactured by Home Design, based in Silver Lake, Indiana.
Both Home Design and the CPSC strongly advise consumers with the recalled beds to cease using them immediately and to contact the company for complimentary replacement slats and side rails.
