When attached to a bed, occupants can become entrapped within the rail or between the rail and the mattress, creating a serious risk of entrapment and death by asphyxiation. The bed rails also lack required hazard warning labels. Affected is model number BR-01.


About 14,250 bedrails were sold in the United States through Amazon.com from September 2025 through October 2025.


Stop using these recalled bed rails. To obtain a refund, cut the black fabric mesh bag off the upper rail, cut the black safety strap in half, and write “RECALLED” on both the upper and lower rails with a permanent marker. Then take a photo of the marked bed rails and email it to the company at [email protected]. After submitting the photo, disposed of the bed rails according to state and local waste disposal procedures. More information may be requested using the same email.
