Ashley Bunk Beds Recalled for Entrapment and Strangulation Hazards

Ashley Furniture Industries is recalling specific bunk bed models because gaps in the structure violate federal safety standards and pose entrapment or strangulation risks to children.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (entrapment/strangulation) where injury has not yet been reported, which aligns with the 'High' severity criteria in the rubric.

Plain-English summary

Ashley Furniture Industries, Inc. is recalling approximately 22,476 bunk beds sold under the "Trails End," "Cottage Retreat," and "Stages" group names. The affected models are B383-58T, B383-57T, B213-58, and B233-58. These products were sold at furniture stores nationwide between December 2000 and February 2004.

The recall is issued because gaps between parts of the bunk beds violate federal safety standards. For model B383, the gap between the end rails on the upper bunk is too large. For models B213 and B233, the gap between the guardrails of the upper bunk can be widened with pressure. These gaps present entrapment and strangulation hazards to children.

No injuries have been reported. Consumers should stop using the recalled bunk beds immediately. To obtain a free repair kit that covers and closes the entrapment gaps, consumers should contact the dealer who sold the bunk bed. Repair kits are not available online, but consumers can call Ashley Furniture Industries at (800) 999-2936 for assistance.
