For the parents out there who may have purchased cribs made by Simplicity, check out your models. You may be among the people who have purchased a potentially hazardous 3-in-1 crib that can put your baby in danger.

Aspen 3-in-1 Recalls with Wooden Mattress Support Recalled

Another crib has been recalled by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and this time around it is the Davenport Cribs that is imported by Appleseed cribs that is in the news.

Apparently there is a fall hazard and knowing how our little tykes can become unruly at times, the risk of injury is pretty much apparent. So if you have one of these cribs, stop using it. Avoid any untoward injuries for your baby. There are about 500 of these cribs sold.

The cribs fail to meet the federal safety standards for cribs. The cribs have a two mattress support system. The secondary mattress support, used for the lowest position, does not meet the full 26 inch minimum height in its lowest position, allowing children inside to crawl over the railing, posing a fall hazard.

Baby Crib Recalled Due to Fall Hazards

If there is one thing any customer would hate, it is being caught in the middle of recalls due to some defects in the manufacturing of certain products such as baby crib. Last month, I had posted an article about cribs that were recalled due to potential entrapment and strangulation hazards for kids and to this day, the recall is in process. The problem is the crib buyers are encountering a lot of discomfort, something that they should not be experiencing.

Some reason out as to where they can put their babies. We all know that it has been widely announced to refrain sleeping with kids since it may lead to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). That is practically the reason why they were advised to place kids in cribs. But with this recall on hand, where do they place kids?

Maybe the adults can sleep on the floor for the meantime. Now that is a discomfort they do not deserve. And if you happen to be one of them, it makes you wonder if you would even consider endorsing their other line of products.

The recall notice directed owners of the cribs to the Jardine Web site, which spells out details on getting a voucher for a replacement crib. Many parents who wrote us were surprised to see that they had to dismantle the crib and follow a multi-step process to get the voucher. Here’s what they’re directed to do after they request a recall kit:

Remove mattress support hardware and identification label using the kit’s instructions and Allen key that is provided.

Place the bolts, mattress support plates, identification label and signed acknowledgment form in the prepaid shipping envelope provided.

Send the envelope to Jardine via UPS.

Sparrow Crib

The Marie bed was designed with a warm and welcoming feel. The gentle curves and mild styling made the Marie Bed special. The designs are crafted on maple and poplar, which are the materials for the bed. The bed is fully upholstered with nailhead trim on the footboard and headboard. The bun feet at the bottom were finished in dark walnut stain so that it’ll coordinates with the colors of the bed. The wide rails covered up the box spring so there’s a “no need” for bed skirt.
