According to the recall notice, the cribs' drop sides can malfunction, detach or otherwise fail, causing part of the drop side to fall out of position, creating a space into which an infant or toddler can roll and become wedged or entrapped, which can lead to strangulation or suffocation. A child can also fall out of the crib. Drop-side incidents can also occur due to incorrect assembly and with age-related wear and tear.
An example of one of the recalled cribs. More available on the recall notice. Photograph from the recall notice.
The recalled cribs were sold at J.C. Penney stores and online at jcpenney.com from January 2005 through December 2008 for between $150 and $400.
If you have one of the recalled cribs, you should immediately stop using the recalled cribs and contact Nan Far Woodworking at (877) 967-5770 for a free repair kit that will immobilize the drop side. In the meantime, find an alternate, safe sleep environment for the child such as a bassinet, play yard or toddler bed depending on the child's age.
