    The product, in the report: Bunk beds

    The consumer stated that her 6 year old daughter (weight 55 pounds) was lying for about 2 hours on the top bed of a bunk bed four feet from the floor, her 4 year old son was on the lower bed about the same time.

    The consumer was outside of the children’s room when she heard a loud “bang” sound. When she entered the children’s bedroom she noticed that the top bunk had collapsed over the lower bunk bed leaving only 6 inches of space in between the two, with her daughter on it. Her son had already moved off the bed when she arrived to the bedroom. There were no injuries sustained by this incident. She discontinued the use of the beds and dismantled them.

    01/30/14- The consumer contacted the manufacturer and the seller through email but has yet to receive a response.

    She feels that this product poses a safety hazard to consumers.

    This product is not affected by a recall.

    The product, in the report: DONCO KIDS HONEY MISSION BUNK BED - MADE OUT OF PINE WOOD- MADE IN VIETNAM - DONCO IS THE IMPORTER I HAVE TRIED TO DOWNLOAD PHOTOS OF THE BROKEN BED BUT CANNOT DOWNLOAD THEM TO THIS SITE.

    I am a mother of 2 toddlers currently ages 4 and 34 months. On 2/17/2013 I purchased a DONCO Kids Honey Mission Twin Bunk Bed from Zulily.com in hopes to have both toddlers use it in the future. Soon after the furniture arrived, we set up one (1) twin bed alone for our eldest toddler (in Spring of 2013). On 1/2/2014, we decided to set up the additional twin bed for our 34 mo. old but NOT as a bunk. We set the twin bed up perpendicular to the first twin bed. Tonight as we were tucking our 34 month in for sleep, my husband leaned on the bed and it suddenly made a loud cracking sound and the entire side support beam split apart and the mattress sank down in the middle. It scared all of us and my 34 mo. old cried and scrambled off of the bed immediately. What is even more upsetting is I am 25 weeks pregnant and was kneeling with my knees placed underneath the very beam that shattered. The wood could have collapsed on me or my belly or flew outwards and punctured me/my unborn baby. I have taken photos of the broken bed and it is clearly poorly constructed as a screw is visible where the rail/wood split and it is placed very near a knot in the wood, which is never a strong point in the wood’s composition. Thankfully, we did not have this bed placed/installed as the top of the bunk as it is designed to be, or else it could have been even more serious with our child falling out of the bed and to the floor, perhaps being cut or punctured by the sharp wood.

    I would like to note that I tried calling DONCO on 1/6/2014 and spoke with a male rep who answered the phone. I briefly explained what had happened and who could I speak to regarding the incident and this man actually implied it was our fault because my husband (who is not by any means overweight) caused the bed to break because he leaned onto it. My husband has slept on the other twin bed belonging to this bunk set several times since March 2013 with no incident. To imply that an adult cannot lean on a bed that is supposed to be manufactured to hold an adult is ludicrous. I retrieved the email address of the owner of DONCO Trading Co and he is supposed to respond to my email/complaint which I emailed to him directly 1/6/2014.

    The product, in the report: Wooden low loft bed for children

    I ordered a children’s loft bed online through Zulily.com. The bed is made my Donco. I have contacted Zulily as the 4 nuts that secure the bedframe together are made of a brittle metal and crumbled and brok apart. The bed is now unsteady and unsafe as a child could be on or under it when it comes apart. Unfortunately, Zulily is not willing to refund my money.

    The product, in the report: Twin over full mission Bunk Beds purchased from Moshya Home Furnishings via Amazon.com

    Purchased these bunk beds through seller on Amazon for our 2 year old who weighs 24 pounds and our 3 year old who weighs 36 pounds. ONe month ago a wooden slat broke underneath the above bunk without a specific incidence and about 2 weeks ago the top bunk bottom frame cracked obliquely as my 3 year old stepped from the ladder onto the top bunk. There has never been any person on the top bunk other then my 2 or 3 year old and there was never an incident that could have possibly damaged this frame. This could have been potentially fatal for our two year old who sleeps on the bottom bunk.

    The product, in the report: Donco Bunk bed twin over full. Item 122-2W, or 122-WC

    My 55 pound son was climbing down from the top bunk of his bed and as he approached the ladder, the end half of his ( mattress and bunky boards) bed collapsed onto the bottom bunk. We do not allow multiple children on the top bunk. We do not allow jumping or standing on the top bunk. Thankfully, no one was sitting on the bottom bunk and though my son was a bit frightened, he was not harmed.
