Drop-Side Cribs (Angel Line) |
| Description |
This recall involves the following models of Longwood Forest drop-side cribs with plastic drop-side hardware: 6103S, 6105S, 6106S, 6108S, 6109S, 8025P and 8029P. They were sold in white, brown, natural and oak colors. "Longwood Forest" or "Angel Line" and the model number are printed on a label on the crib's headboard. The firm's fixed-side cribs and drop-side cribs with metal rod-type hardware are not included in this recall. |
| Problem |
The crib's drop-side hardware can malfunction, detach or otherwise fail, causing part of the drop-side rail to detach from the crib. When the drop-side rail partially detaches, it creates a space between the drop side and the crib mattress. An infant or toddler's body can become entrapped in the space, which can lead to strangulation and/or suffocation. A child can also fall out of the crib. Drop-side incidents also can occur due to age-related wear and tear. |
