Hooker Furniture Bunk Beds recall: Strangulation Hazard
Hooker Furniture Recalls Bunk Beds Due to Strangulation Hazard
Why was Hooker Furniture Bunk Beds recalled?
The bunk beds have gaps between parts of the upper bunk that could allow a child's body to pass through but not a child's head. This poses an entrapment or strangulation hazard to children and exceeds the space allowed by the federal bunk bed safety standard.
