Simplicity Recalls 1 Million Cribs

Filed in archive Recall News by Melissa Petri on September 22, 2007

One million Simplicity cribs sold between January 1998 and May 2007 are being recalled due to failures resulting in infant deaths.

Two infant deaths, seven entrapments and 55 incidents were reported where the drop-side can detach from the crib, resulting to entrapment and suffocation.

The drop-side failures result from both the hardware and crib design, which allow consumers to unintentionally install the drop-side upside down. This, in turn, can weaken the hardware and cause the drop-side to detach from the crib. When the drop-side detaches, it creates a gap in which infants can become entrapped.


Recalled crib models include:

1. Aspen 3-in-1
2. Nursery-in-a-box
3. Lancaster convertible crib
4. Crib Drop Side

Consumers who have a crib with older style hardware can receive a free repair by immediately contacting Simplicity toll-free at (888) 593-9274 between 8:30 a.m. and 10 p.m. ET Monday through Thursday, between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET on Friday, and between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET on Saturday, or by visiting the firm's Web site at www.simplicityforchildren.com

A video clip is also provided by CPSC to inform consumers about the recall.
