Seven Companies Recall Over Two Million Cribs
The Consumer Product Safety Commission has announced a massive recall on drop side cribs. Two million cribs manufactured by seven different companies were named in the recall. Over the past five years over nine million drop side cribs have been recalled and the CPSC has warned parents and caregivers several times about the dangers of drop side cribs.
Unlike a standard crib with four immobile sides, drop side Drop side cribs are manufactured with one side that slides up and down for easier access to children. Defective, missing or broken hardware can cause the drop side to unexpectedly collapse and create a hazardous gap for children. Over the past five years, the CPSC has received numerous complaints of children falling out of drop side cribs or suffocating in the hazardous gap created by the defective crib.
In this latest recall, the CSPC has named 16 separate incidents of infants becoming trapped in the cribs. The cribs are manufactured by Evenflo, Delta Enterprises Corp., Child Craft, Jardine Enterprises, LaJobi, Million Dollar Baby and Simmons Juvenile Products Inc.
