New Crib Bumper Design Removes Suffocation Risk From Cribs Traditional crib bumper pads are awash in controversy as various groups all try to come to a common agreement on whether or not these bumpers are safe to be sold or a death trap for infants. Wonder Bumpers provide parents with a pad that their babies cannot suffocate in while still protecting them from getting a limb stuck in crib slats or getting contusions from falling into the hard crib sides. Unlike horizontal bumpers that completely block off the crib sides, Wonder Bumpers are vertical and are attached individually to each crib railing like the padding you would see on the bottom of a basketball pole. Air is still able to flow through the crib and infants are safely protected.
