In its NPR in its NPR, the CPSC examined the possibility of adding additional requirements for sleepers in bed, such as the requirement that these products meet the minimum side height requirement for bassinets or at least meet the maximum height requirement for the side rail. However, the CPSC found that these requirements are not feasible or effective to reduce the amount of instances in which infants were trapped between the bedside sleeper and the adult bed. The majority of the reported incidents in the NPR included multi-use bedside sleepers that could be converted into other types of use, such as play yards and bassinets. Many commenters suggested that CPSC include in the proposed rule a different provision for multiuse bedside sleepers to allow them to meet the minimum side-height requirement of bassinets through the use of an attachment that is removable and can be connected permanently or disconnected when the item is not being used as the bassinet. The CPSC is currently reviewing these comments as well as other submissions received in response to the NPR on bedside sleeping. The Commission will take into account these comments when it votes on the final rule, which is expected to be released in November 2021.
