In the CPSC's words

Description
This recall involves three different sizes of ELENKER-branded bed rails. The collapsible, portable adult bed rails are silver and come with a strap. Model HFK-5115 (SKU K90002C1) bed rails measure about 37.8 inches wide and 16.3 inches high. Model HFK-5116 (SKU K90001C1) bed rails measure about 28.5 inches wide and 16.3 inches high. Model HFK-5124 (SKU K90003C1) bed rails measure about 48.6 inches wide and 16.3 inches high. The SKU number is printed on the product packaging.
Hazard
The recalled bed rails violate the mandatory standard for adult portable bed rails because when the bed rails are attached to a bed, users can become entrapped within the bed rail or between the bed rail and the side of the mattress, posing a serious entrapment hazard and risk of death by asphyxiation. In addition, the bed rails do not bear the required hazard warning labels.
Remedy
Consumers should stop using the recalled bed rails immediately and contact Fuzhou Shiahaha Cultural Industry Development for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to write "RECALL" with permanent marker on the bed rails and then dispose of the recalled product in accordance with the state and local waste disposal procedure.
