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

Plain-English summary

Bednest Ltd. is recalling approximately 500 bedside infant sleepers manufactured after July 2014. The products are bassinets and cradles featuring beech wood ends, white fabric sides, and metal frames on a height-adjustable stand. The date of manufacture is stamped underneath the base of the sleeper.

The recall is being issued because the bedside sleepers fail to meet mandatory federal requirements for these products, which creates a fall hazard for babies. The company has not reported any injuries associated with this defect.

The affected sleepers were sold online at www.Bednest.com from March 2010 through December 2015 for between $400 and $500, or rented for between $170 and $200. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled bedside sleeper while the sides are in the fully open position. Bednest is providing a free repair kit that permanently locks the side rail into place and is contacting all known consumers directly. For more information, consumers can email [email protected] or visit www.bednest.com.
