  • In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Munire Furniture Inc., of Piscataway, N.J., is voluntarily recalling about 24,000 Majestic Curved Top and Flat Top Cribs, Essex Cribs, Brighton/Sussex Cribs and Captiva Cribs. The cribs fail to meet the federal safety standards for cribs. The four support brackets on the mattress support spring are too long. The brackets prevent the spring from lowering to the full 26 inch minimum height in its lowest position, allowing children inside to crawl over the railing, posing a fall hazard.

    The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), in cooperation with Simplicity Inc., of Reading, Pa., is announcing today that a remedy is now available for parents and caregivers who were impacted by the September 21, 2007, voluntary recall of about 1 million Simplicity and Graco logo cribs with older hardware. Simplicity will provide consumers with a repair kit that immobilizes the drop-side. After an intensive effort to develop a repair that would allow safe use of the drop-side, CPSC staff and Simplicity have determined that the safest repair option is to immobilize the drop-side. This repair program will be monitored by CPSC staff and is intended to reduce the risk of death or serious injury to infants

  • In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Simplicity Inc., of Reading, Pa., is voluntarily recalling about 40,000 Nursery-in-a-Box Cribs. The assembly instructions provided with the cribs incorrectly instruct consumers how to attach the crib's drop side. If improperly installed, the drop side can disengage from the crib, posing fall and entrapment hazards for the child. Additionally, the metal locking pins on the drop side can pop off, presenting a choking hazard.

  • In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Song Lin Industrial Inc., of Oklahoma City, Okla., is voluntarily recalling about 180 Sleigh Round Cribs. The assembly instructions included with the crib direct consumers to assemble the crib with the mattress support in the highest position and do not indicate that the mattress support can be moved to a lower position. This poses a fall hazard to children who are able to sit or stand up in the crib.

  • In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Child Craft Industries Inc., of New Salisbury, Ind. is voluntarily recalling 155 Child Craft Cribs. A wooden strip added to the end assemblies of the crib to correct a spacing problem could come loose, creating a space in violation of the federal crib standard and posing a risk of entrapment. In addition, the three pin nails used to hold the strip in place pose a laceration hazard if the wooden strip detaches.

  • In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Orbelle Trade Inc., of Brooklyn, N.Y. is voluntarily recalling about 7,700 cribs. The Amber model crib included in this recall does not comply with crib safety standards due to a gap between the side rail and the crib mattress support, posing an entrapment hazard to infants. All other model cribs included in this recall do not have proper assembly instructions and diagrams required for cribs. They are also missing cautionary and warning labels as required by federal law. If the cribs are not assembled properly they could pose an entrapment hazard to infants.

  • In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Stanley Furniture Company Inc., Stanleytown, Va., is voluntarily recalling 318 Isabella model cribs. An incorrect screw (used to attach the movable gate) was provided for the assembly of some of these cribs. The crib cannot be assembled using this screw. However, if consumers have substituted their own screw, it may not properly hold the movable gate in place. The result is a potential risk that a child could fall from the crib or become entrapped between the gate and the mattress.

Baby's Dream has received 38 reports of broken or cracked hinges, but there have been no injuries reported.

    L.A. Baby, of Vernon, Calif., is voluntarily recalling about 2,000 folding Little Wood Cribs. The recalled cribs have model numbers 83 and 83/4 with manufacture dates of March 2001 or May 2001, located on the mattress board underneath of the mattress. The cribs' headboards and footboards unlatch to fold inward for easy portability from room to room. They are non full-sized, wooden cribs and have a natural or white finish. L.A. Baby sold the recalled cribs to hotels, daycare centers, and small specialty stores from March 2001 to October 2001 for about $170.
