Problem | The bunk beds have openings on the top bunk that present a potential entrapment hazard to young children. The spaces can be large enough for a child’s body to pass through, but small enough to entrap a child’s head. Manufacturers and importers urge parents and care givers not to put children under the age of 6 on the top bunk. |
