Dream On Me Children's Bed Rails
The notice says to stop using it — see below for what to do.
What’s wrong
The bed rail can separate from the mattress allowing a child's body to become entrapped if it slips between the rail and the mattress. This poses suffocation and strangulation hazards to children.
