			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Name of Product: </strong>Jardine drop-side cribs</p>
<p><strong>Units: </strong>About 130,000</p>
<p><strong>Manufacturer: </strong>Jardine Enterprise Ltd., of Taipei, Taiwan</p>
<p><strong>Importer: </strong>Toys &#8220;R&#8221; Us, of Wayne, N.J.</p>
<p><strong>Hazard: </strong>The cribs&#8217; 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.</p>
<p><strong>Incidents/Injuries: </strong>CPSC and Jardine have received 47 reports of drop sides that detached or malfunctioned. In one of these incidents, a child was found unconscious after becoming entrapped and was hospitalized. Nine other reports involving entrapments or fallouts resulted in scratches and bruises, including one child who sustained a broken collarbone.</p>
<p><strong>Description: </strong>All Jardine drop-side cribs have been recalled. The model number and date code can be found on the labels attached to one of the end panels.</p>
<p><strong>Sold at: </strong>Babies &#8220;R&#8221; Us, Toys &#8220;R&#8221; Us, Geoffrey Stores and KidsWorld nationwide from January 2002 through June 2009 for between $150 and $480.</p>
<p><strong>Manufactured in: </strong>China and Vietnam</p>
<p><strong>Remedy: </strong>Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled cribs and contact Jardine to receive 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 your child&#8217;s age.</p>
<p><strong>Consumer Contact: </strong>For additional information, contact Jardine at (800) 295-1980 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET, Monday through Friday or visit the firm&#8217;s website at <a href="http://www.jdservice.biz/crib-safety-notice">www.jdservice.biz</a></p>
<p><strong>Note: </strong>More information about the special industry program to provide <a href="http://www.childrensproductrecalls.com/wp-admin/10270.html">free immobilization kits</a>.</p>
<p><strong><em>Important Message from CPSC: </em></strong>CPSC reminds parents not to use any crib with missing, broken, or loose parts. Make sure to tighten hardware from time to time to keep the crib sturdy. When using a drop-side crib, parents should check to make sure the drop side or any other moving part operates smoothly. Always check all sides and corners of the crib for disengagement. Disengagements can create a gap and entrap a child. In addition, do not try to repair any side of the crib. Babies have died in cribs where repairs were attempted by caregivers. Age is 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 may not meet current voluntary standards and can have numerous safety problems.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Name of Product: </strong>Drop-Side cribs</p>
<p><strong>Units: </strong>About 156,000</p>
<p><strong>Distributor: </strong>Bexco Enterprises, Inc., d.b.a. Million Dollar Baby of Montebello, Calif.</p>
<p><strong>Hazard: </strong>The cribs&#8217; 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.</p>
<p><strong>Incidents/Injuries: </strong>CPSC and Million Dollar Baby have received 43 reports of drop side failures. There were eight reports of children being entrapped between the mattress and drop side resulting in three reports of bruises to the head or upper body. Additionally, three children fell out of the crib when the drop side failed but they were not injured.</p>
<p><strong>Description: </strong>The following full-sized Million Dollar Baby cribs with drop sides are involved in the recall:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Name of Product: </strong>Child Craft brand &#8220;Crib ‘N&#8217; Double Bed&#8221; full size stationary-side cribs with dowel</p>
<p><strong>Manufacturer: </strong>Child Craft Industries, Inc. (Child Craft ceased operations in July of 2009 and sold the &#8220;Child Craft&#8221; name to Foundations Worldwide Inc., of Medina, Ohio) Foundations Worldwide, Inc. neither manufactured nor sold any of the cribs included in this recall.</p>
<p><strong>Units: </strong>Between 40,000 and 50,000</p>
<p><strong>Hazard: </strong>The cribs&#8217; stationary side can be assembled upside-down but still appear to be assembled correctly. If assembled upside-down, the crib side contains a hazardous five-inch gap at the top of the crib. Infants or toddlers can become entrapped in this gap (as depicted in the photo below), which can lead to entrapment, strangulation or other injuries.</p>
<p><strong>Incidents/Injuries: </strong>CPSC has received four reports of children becoming entrapped between the dowel and the crib&#8217;s stationary front side. In two of those reports, the child was trapped by his/her head and was in danger of being strangled. In the other two reports, the child was trapped by his/her arm. This hazard can occur on both the front and back sides of the crib.</p>
<p><strong>Description: </strong>All Child Craft brand cribs with the foot top dowel (as shown in the photos below) including, but not limited to, the following models:</p>
<div>
<table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5">
<tbody>
<tr>
<th scope="col"><span style="font-size:small;">Name</span></th>
<th scope="col"><span style="font-size: small;">Model Number(s)</span></th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><span style="font-size: small;">Child Craft convertible cribs</span></td>
<td align="center"><span style="font-size: small;">F36101</span></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
<p>The name &#8220;Child Craft&#8221; appears on a label on the crib&#8217;s frame and identifies the place of manufacture as Salem, Indiana or New Salisbury, Indiana. These cribs were manufactured by Child Craft Industries, Inc., which is no longer in business.</p>
<p><strong>Sold at: </strong>Babies &#8216;R Us and other stores nationwide between January 1998 and June 2009 for between $600 and $650.</p>
<p><strong>Remedy: </strong>The CPSC staff urges parents and caregivers to examine these cribs immediately and determine whether they have been assembled properly. The best way to do this is to measure the gap between the front and back sides of the crib and the dowel that runs parallel to the sides. The gap should be no more than two and three eighths inches (2 3/8&#8243;), as shown in the images below. If the gap is greater than 2 3/8&#8243;, the side has been installed upside-down and needs to be re-assembled. Another indicator that the side has been installed improperly is the appearance of the barrel nut, as is visible in the image above showing an incorrect assembly. The barrel nut should be at the <strong>bottom</strong> of the side, not the top. If either of these conditions are present, the side of the crib has been installed upside-down and needs to be re-assembled so that the barrel nut is not visible from the top and the gap between the dowel and the side is no greater than two and three eighths inches (2 3/8&#8243;). Consumers with these cribs should contact Foundations Worldwide, Inc., to obtain instructions and decals to affix to the stationary sides of the crib to ensure proper assembly in the future.</p>
<p><strong>Consumer Contact: </strong>For additional information, contact Foundations Worldwide toll-free at (866) 614-0557 anytime, or visit the firm&#8217;s website at <a href="http://www.cribsafetyinfo.com/">www.cribsafetyinfo.com</a></p>
<p><strong><em>Important Message from CPSC: </em></strong>CPSC reminds parents not to use any crib with missing, broken, or loose parts. Make sure to tighten hardware from time to time to keep the crib sturdy. When using a drop-side crib, parents should check to make sure the drop side or any other moving part operates smoothly. Always check all sides and corners of the crib for disengagement. Disengagements can create a gap and entrap a child. At a minimum, CPSC staff recommends that you not use a crib that is older than 10 years. Many older cribs may not meet current voluntary standards and can have numerous safety problems.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Name of Product: </strong>Simmons drop-side cribs</p>
<p><strong>Units: </strong>About 50,000</p>
<p><strong>Manufacturer: </strong>Simmons Juvenile Products, of New London, Wis.</p>
<p><strong>Hazard: </strong>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.</p>
<p><strong>Incidents/Injuries: </strong>CPSC has received 30 reports of drop sides that have malfunctioned or detached. Two children became entrapped between the drop side and the crib mattress but were freed without injury. Two other children fell out of their cribs when the drop side malfunctioned and one child sustained scratches due to the fall.</p>
<p><strong>Description: </strong>This recall includes Simmons Easy Side Drop-side cribs. Specific model and style numbers included in the recall are listed on the firm’s website at <a href="http://www.cribrecallcenter.com/">www.cribrecallcenter.com</a>. Style numbers are printed on a permanent label on the headboard.</p>

<p><strong>Remedy: </strong>Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled cribs and contact Simmons to request a free repair kit that will immobilize the drop side. Repair kits will be available in the next few weeks. 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.</p>
<p><strong>Consumer Contact: </strong>Please visit the website, <a href="http://www.cribrecallcenter.com/">www.cribrecallcenter.com</a>, which has pictures and instructions to help you easily identify and order the correct kit, or call (877) 342-3439 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.</p>

<p><strong><em>Important Message from CPSC: </em></strong>CPSC reminds parents not to use any crib with missing, broken, or loose parts. Make sure to tighten hardware from time to time to keep the crib sturdy. When using a drop-side crib, parents should check to make sure the drop side or any other moving part operates smoothly. Always check all sides and corners of the crib for disengagement. Disengagements can create a gap and entrap a child. In addition, do not try to repair any side of the crib. Babies have died in cribs where repairs were attempted by caregivers. Age is 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 may not meet current voluntary standards and can have numerous safety problems.</p>
