In a heartbreaking incident in the UK, Helen Davey lost her life after being trapped and suffocated by her Ottoman-style bed’s malfunctioning mechanism.

The bed, designed with a storage space underneath, had a faulty gas piston that caused the mattress platform to come down on Helen, ultimately leading to her death.

Helen’s daughter, Elizabeth, recounted the distressing scene of finding her mother trapped in the bed, struggling to lift the heavy mechanism off her. The coroner’s report confirmed that the defective gas-lift piston was the cause of the unexpected accident, resulting in Helen’s death by positional asphyxia.

The incident left Helen’s family shattered, especially as they had previously lost Helen’s brother in a tragic accident at a young age. Both siblings are now laid to rest together, adding to the family’s immense grief.
