Sleep City Holdings Limited - s.87B undertaking

Sleep City Holdings Limited, an importer and retailer of bedroom furniture, has acknowledged engaging in conduct that contravened section 65C of the Trade Practices Act by selling the 'Jessie' (in single and study form), 'London' and 'Trio' models of bunk beds which contravened the mandatory product safety standard.

Contraventions included access openings in the upper bunk guard rail which were substantially wider than the prescribed maximum width, multiple head/limb entrapment hazards, and not displaying the maximum mattress height warning and supplier identification labels on the bed frames.

Sleep City has provided court enforceable undertakings to the ACCC that it will refrain from supplying bunk beds that do not comply with the mandatory standard, will display recall notices on its website and in its stores, will endeavour to contact all customers whom it supplied any of the bunk beds to repair the product or refund the customer, and will implement a trade practices compliances program.
