"Toddler Bed With Guard Rail," model 3210

Description

PRODUCT: "Toddler Bed With Guard Rail," model 3210, distributed by Rainbow Mountain, Inc. The white, red or blue metal-framed beds were sold disassembled and use a standard crib mattress. The mattresses were not sold with the beds. Approximately 1,300 beds were sold from January 1992 through November 1992 to stores in the midwestern and eastern United States. PROBLEM: The bed contains a space between the side guard rail and the mattress where a child could become entrapped. WHAT TO DO: Consumers should contact the store where the bed was purchased or Rainbow Mountain, Inc. at 1-800-253-5410 for a free retrofit kit. Consumers who do not want a retrofit kit but want a refund may return the beds to the store where purchased for a refund. WASHINGTON, DC - Rainbow Mountain, Inc., Naperville, IL, and CPSC urge consumers who purchased Rainbow Mountain's model 3210 "Toddler Beds With Guard Rail" to contact the stores where the beds were purchased for free retrofit kits. The kits correct a child entrapment hazard between the beds' side guard rails and its mattresses. Neither Rainbow Mountain Inc. nor CPSC is aware of any injuries with the beds. There were three incidents reported where children became entrapped between the bed's side guard rail and mattress, but no injuries were reported. The metal-framed, white, red or blue beds were imported from Taiwan. They use standard 27-inch by 52-inch crib mattresses, which were not sold with the beds. The beds are intended to be used as transition beds for children who have outgrown a crib but may not need a full-sized bed. Approximately 1,300 beds were sold from January 1992 through November 1992 to stores located in the midwestern and eastern United States. Each bed was sold disassembled and included a headboard, footboard, two side guard rails, two mattress support rails, and six mattress cross-support rails. The beds were unlabeled. The bed contains a space between the side rail and the mattress where a child could become entrapped. The retrofit kit consists of a nylon mesh sleeve that fits over the bed's side guard rail to block this opening. Consumers are urged to contact the stores where the beds were purchased or Rainbow Mountain, Inc. at 1-800-253-5410 for their free retrofit kits. Consumers who do not want a retrofit kit but want a refund may return the beds to the stores where purchased for a refund of the purchase price. CPSC initially became aware of this problem as a result of a consumer complaint. Three non-injury complaints have been received. CPSC is announcing this corrective action as part of its mission to protect the public from risks of injury and death associated with consumer products. The Commission's mission is to reduce the estimated 28.6 million injuries and 21,700 deaths associated each year with the 15,000 different types of consumer products under CPSC's jurisdiction.

Frequently Asked Questions

Follow the consumer action instructions in the recall notice above. Most recalls require you to stop using the product and contact the manufacturer directly — either by calling the toll-free number listed in the official CPSC notice or by visiting the manufacturer's website. You generally do not need a receipt or original packaging to claim a remedy. The manufacturer is legally required to provide the remedy (Refund, Repair) at no cost to you.

Yes. If you were injured by a defective consumer product — whether recalled or not — you may have grounds for a product liability claim against the manufacturer and potentially the retailer. A recall notice can serve as evidence that the manufacturer was aware of the defect. Injuries that may support a claim include burns, lacerations, fractures, electric shock, choking incidents, and chemical exposure. Most product liability attorneys work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless you win. Consult an attorney promptly, as statutes of limitation vary by state.

In most cases, no. CPSC-coordinated recall remedies are designed to be accessible without proof of purchase. Manufacturers typically ask consumers to self-certify ownership and may ask for photos of the product or its serial number. Some manufacturers request that you mail in a portion of the product (such as a cut cord or removed component) as proof of disposal. Check the specific remedy instructions for this recall for exact requirements. If you registered your product at the time of purchase, the process is usually even simpler.

If the original manufacturer has gone out of business, the recall remedy may no longer be available through them. In this case, contact CPSC directly at 1-800-638-2772 or cpsc.gov for guidance. If the brand was acquired by another company, the acquiring company may have assumed recall obligations. In some cases where a remedy is unavailable, CPSC advises consumers to safely dispose of the product. If you were injured by the product of a defunct company, consult a product liability attorney — parent companies, distributors, and retailers may still bear liability in some circumstances.
