In its NPR the CPSC examined the possibility of adding additional requirements to bedside sleepers. For instance the products would need to meet the minimum side height requirements for bassinets, or at a minimum, the maximum height requirements for the rail that is lowered. However, the CPSC concluded that such requirements are not feasible or effective to reduce the number of incidents where infants were entrapped between the bedside sleeper and the adult bed.
A majority of the incidents reported in the NPR involved multiuse 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 foldable bedside crib sleepers to allow them to meet the minimum side-height requirement of bassinets by using an attachment that is removable and can be connected permanently or removed when the product is not being used as an actual bassinet.
