The product, in the report: The SlumberPod is a tent like product that goes over a crib or [REDACTED] to make a dark sleeping space for a small child. Model SlumberPod Black/Grey
We purchased a SlumberPod on October 26 and received it on the 30th. We set it up on the 31st. It is basically a large tent that goes over a [REDACTED] or mini crib to create a dark sleeping space for a small child. On or around November 4, the end of one of the poles shattered under the pressure, sending bits of thick plastic shooting across the room. Thankfully, we were not in the room at the time so there were no injuries but it could have been very dangerous. We contacted SlumberPod and they told us the pole must not have been tightly connected causing it to shear off under the pressure. I’m not sure if this was a defect or if this is a known issue if the poles aren’t tight. There wasn’t an explicit warning to ensure that the poles were tight and we believed we had assembled it correctly.
