Warning! Please do not use the AMBY Baby bed - at least three babies have suffocated to death in this bed as far as is currently known. Now, the company has suddently disappeared from the US, all of its websites are down and phone numbers disconnected. Please be careful if you have this bed.

[ Reply | Options ]Do your homework (consult the latest statistics and compare to other bed designs and brands) before deciding against this bed. You can find isolated instances of injury and death for most types and brands of beds that are widely in use. Often, these unfortunate accidents happen as the result of incorrect use and/or monitoring. Hundreds of thousands of Amby Beds have been used without incident throughout the world (in my home included) and it seems to me best to get more information about the recent incidents in the U.S. before rejecting a product that has been directly linked to REDUCING the instance of infant injury and SIDS.

I agree. Both our babies slept in an Amby until they were close to two and I would absolutely use it again for a third. A similar thing happened with a different product when I lived in Europe and it turned out that the bed had not been used according to the safety instructions issued.
