Wall beds sold at Amazon and Costco recalled after one falls on woman, killing her

Roughly 129,000 Bestar wall beds sold online by retailers including Amazon, Costco and Wayfair are being recalled after one fell on an elderly woman, killing her, the company and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission announced on Thursday.

The beds can detach from the wall and fall onto those nearby, posing serious impact and crush hazards, the agency and Bestar of Canada warned. 

A 79-year-old woman died in July 2018 after a Bestar wall bed fell on her, injuring her spine. Bestar has received reports of 60 additional incidents resulting in bruising and other injuries from the product detaching and hitting people.
