The metal rod that connects the guard rail to the bed frame can break during normal use, leading to sharp edges that may cause cuts or lacerations. This breakage is a result of the rod's design and the stress it experiences when the bed is used.

Check for a date stamp on the label attached to the headboard or underside of the bed, which shows a range like 1114 to 1322 for KRITTER or 1114 to 1318 for SNIGLAR. Model numbers 600.904.70 (KRITTER) or 500.871.66 (SNIGLAR) are also present on the label.
