ATLANTA — The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is warning consumers about "SafetyCraft" brand full-size and portable drop-side cribs manufactured or distributed by Generation 2 Worldwide of Dothan, Ala.
According to the CPSC website, the cribs contain drop-side hardware identical to Generation 2 Worldwide ChildESIGNS brand drop-side cribs recalled in February 2010. The hardware can fail and place infants and toddlers at risk of strangulation and suffocation, the CPSC said. CPSC received reports of three infant suffocation deaths and 20 drop side related incidents involving previously recalled models of Generation 2 Worldwide and ChildESIGNS cribs with plastic hardware similar to "SafetyCraft" cribs.
CPSC staff urges parents and caregivers to stop using these cribs immediately and find an alternative, safe sleeping environment for their baby.
The site had a warning saying, "Do not attempt to fix these cribs."
