Seven Manufacturers Recall Cribs Due to Fall Hazards

June 24, 2010 by ModernMom Staff Leave a Comment

The drop-side and fixed-side crib recalls announced today are of units manufactured between 2000 and 2009 by the companies listed below. Consumers should contact these firms directly for the appropriate solution.

  • Child Craft, (this firm is out of business)
  • Delta Enterprise Corp., of New York, N.Y.
  • Evenflo, of Miamisburg, Ohio
  • Jardine Enterprises, of Taipei, Taiwan
  • LaJobi, of Cranbury, N.J.
  • Million Dollar Baby, of Montebello, Calif.
  • Simmons Juvenile Products Inc. (SJP), of New London, Wis.

Important Message from CPSC (U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission):

Drop-side crib incidents can also occur due to incorrect assembly or age-related wear and tear. Age is a factor in the safety of any crib. At a minimum, CPSC staff recommends that you not use a crib that is older than 10 years. Many older cribs do not meet current voluntary standards and can have numerous safety problems.

The safest place for your baby to sleep is in a crib or bassinet depending on their age. If your crib has been recalled or it has missing, broken or loose parts, find an alternate safe sleep environment intended for a baby. If your baby is less than six months old and is not yet able to push up to his/her hands and knees, you can put your baby to sleep in a bassinet.

Do not put additional bedding such as pillows, thick quilts, comforters or anything plush into your baby’s sleeping space. More babies die every year from suffocation in plush sleeping environments than from defective cribs. Always place your baby on his or her back to reduce the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).
