About 500 Jubee Bunk Beds with faulty wooden supports are being recalled because they may collapse, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said Tuesday.
The recall applies to beds with the model number 82008 distributed by the Virginia-based company d-Scan. The beds were sold in furniture stores in the U.S. and through online retailers from December 2004 through April 2006 for about $600 US.
The company has learned of seven incidents in which the upper bunk collapsed. No injuries were reported.
Consumers should contact the company for a free repair kit.
