Nimood Adult Portable Bed Rails Recalled Due to Risk of Serious Injury or Death from Entrapment and Asphyxiation Hazards; Violate Mandatory Standard for Adult Portable Bed Rails

Hazard

The recalled bed rails violate the mandatory standard for adult portable bed rails, because users can become entrapped within the bed rail or between the bed rail and the side of the mattress, posing a serious entrapment hazard and risk of death by asphyxiation. The bed rails do not meet structural stability or retention strap requirements, posing a fall hazard. Furthermore, the bed rails' push pins and push pin holes are incorrectly sized, posing a laceration hazard. In addition, the bed rails do not bear the required hazard warning labels.

Remedy

Consumers should stop using the recalled bed rails immediately and contact Nimood US for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to destroy the bed rail by cutting the black fabric mesh bag off the rail and the black safety strap in half, write "RECALLED" on a piece of paper, take a photo of this alongside the disassembled bed rail and send a photo of the marked bed rail to nikeouzhou@hotmail.com. Consumers should then dispose of the recalled product.
