Bunk Beds by Dorel Distribution Canada |
The wooden side rails that run from the headboard to the footboard and hold the bunk bed’s mattress in place can split and cause the bunk bed to collapse, posing a fall hazard to consumers. There have been no incidents in Canada related to this public notice.
Note: The model number appears on a label affixed to one of the long bed rails.
Consumers should immediately contact Dorel Distribution Canada at (800) 295-1980 between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. ET, Monday to Friday to receive a free repair kit. Until consumers obtain and install the repair kit, consumers should take down the bunk beds and only use them as separate twin beds.
