Zinus SmartBase Euro Slats Metal Platform Bed Frames Recalled for Collapse Hazard

Zinus is recalling about 30,400 SmartBase Euro Slats metal platform bed frames because missing reinforcing brackets can cause the frame to collapse, creating an injury hazard. Consumers should stop using the bed frames and request a free repair kit.

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: Reports of actual collapse with one injury documented place this at the "High" level—a risk-of-harm product with reported injury. This does not meet the threshold for "Severe" (which requires hospitalization reports) or "Critical" (which requires fatalities or FDA Class I status).

Plain-English summary

Zinus, Inc. of Tracy, California is recalling certain models of SmartBase Euro Slats metal platform bed frames sold online from May 2022 through November 2022. The recalled bedframes have a black metal frame, measure 14 inches high, and were available in twin, full, queen, and king sizes. Model codes OLB-MESB-T, OLB-MESB-F, OLB-MESB-Q, and OLB-MESB-K (with the final letter indicating size) are affected.

The bedframe assembly kits are missing reinforcing brackets required for proper installation at the corners of the frame. Without these brackets, the frame can collapse, posing an injury hazard. The firm has received 14 reports of the bed frame collapsing, including one report of an unspecified injury.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled bed frames and contact Zinus to obtain a free repair kit that includes reinforcing brackets, appropriate tools and hardware, and both printed and video instructions. Consumers can reach Zinus at 800-613-1225 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. PT, Monday through Friday, email [email protected], or visit www.zinus.com/requestkit or www.zinus.com and select "SmartBase Euro Slats Bed Frame Recall" under the Support tab.
