Thousands of Beds Sold at Amazon and Walmart Recalled Over Dangerous ‘Failures’
A recall has been issued for nearly 138,000 Lucid-branded platform beds sold in the U.S. and Canada due to safety concerns related to their potential to collapse, posing risks of falls and injuries. The recall affects beds with upholstered square tufted headboards imported by CVB Inc., with reports of 245 incidents and 18 injuries in the U.S., and 11 additional reports in Canada. The affected beds were manufactured between 2019 and 2021 but continued to be sold until April 2024 at major retailers including Amazon, Walmart, and Home Depot. Consumers are advised to stop using these beds and contact Lucid for a free replacement, while also marking the bed’s support rails with ”recalled.” Further details for the recall process can be found on Lucid’s dedicated recall webpage.
Nearly 138,000 platform beds sold at major retailers including Amazon and Walmart are being recalled across the U.S. and Canada because they can collapse, posing fall and injury risks.
Utah-based importer CVB Inc. is recalling the Lucid-branded platform beds with upholstered square tufted headboards. According to Thursday notices from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Health Canada, the beds can sag, break or collapse during use.
To date, there have been 245 incidents of this occurring in the U.S., resulting in 18 related injuries such as contusions and bruises, the CPSC said. An additional 11 reports of “bed failures” have been reported in Canada, with no further injuries.
According to Lucid, the recall covers a discontinued version of its platform beds, which the company says were manufactured between 2019 and 2021.
While manufacturing ended several years ago, the now-recalled beds continued to be sold at major retailers through April 2024, the CPSC said. In addition to Amazon, Walmart and Lucid’s website, consumers may have also purchased the beds at Bed Bath & Beyond, eBay, Home Depot, Macys, Target.com, Wayfair and other retailers.
About 137,000 of the recalled beds were sold in the U.S. and 890 in Canada, the CPSC said.
The beds — which were made in Malaysia and come in twin, full, queen, king and cal-king sizes — can be identified with a white law label found on the back of the headboard. “Made For: CVB INC, 1525 W 2960 S, LOGAN, UT 84321” should be printed on it.
People who have the recalled beds are urged to stop using them immediately and contact Lucid for a free replacement frame.
Consumers will have to write the word “recalled” on the bed’s support rails with a permanent marker and send photos to Lucid. More information about getting a replacement can be found on Lucid’s recall page.
