Bunk bed recall

Below are the specifics of the recalled seven bunk beds:

1. Bunk Bed Compact Mini Low Height – Innovative Design! – BNKMIDCOM1

2. Bunk Bed Mid Height with built-in Bookshelf – BNKMIDBook1

3. Bunk Bed with built-in Bookshelf & optional trundle or drawers – BNKBook101

5. High loft bed with Open shelves & Optional 2 Drawer Desk – LFTWDSK

 6. Triple Bunk Bed – Single over double bed + Optional trundle – BNKTP2

7. Triple Transverse bunk bed – Three single beds in one – BNKTP1

What’s the issue? 

According to Product Safety Australia, the plastic brackets holding the bunk beds together may crack or break. This may be caused by the over-tightening of the screws on the brackets or by misuse, for example, repeated jumping on or climbing over the sides of the bed.

If the brackets crack or break, the bunk bed may collapse and could result in a fall, serious injury or even death.”
