What You Should Do

Stop using this product immediately. Do not consume, use, or distribute it.

Consumers should stop using the top bunk if a "j" hook has become dislodged. Ethan Allen is directly notifying consumers who purchased these bunk beds about the recall and is providing free repair kits. Guardrails will be shipped to consumers with these recalled bunk beds on or about May 20, 2004.

Affected Products

The top bunk guardrails on Ethan Allen Ryan and P.J. Bunk Beds have item numbers 35-5659-4, 36-5659-3 or 36-5659-4. Item numbers can be found on the inside of the bottom bunk headboard or footboard. The "j" hooks were incorporated into the guardrails of bunk beds as a locking/unlocking device. When unlocked and out of position, the guardrail can be removed for easy access to change bed linen.

Why Was This Recalled?

A metal "j" hook on the guardrails can become dislodged, allowing the guardrail to slide or move out of position. This can allow the guardrail to detach from the bunk bed or allow the occupant to roll off the top bunk.

Where Was This Sold?
