A baby can become trapped in the crib
July 20, 2015Bexco Enterprises of Montebello, Calif., is recalling about 11,700 DaVinci cribs in the U.S and Canada.
A metal bracket that connects the mattress support to the crib can break, creating an uneven sleeping surface or a gap. If this occurs, a baby can become trapped in the crib, fall or suffer lacerations from the broken metal bracket.
The firm has received 10 reports of the mattress support brackets detaching. No injuries have been reported.
The recall includes DaVinci brand full-size cribs including the Reagan crib (model #M2801), the Emily crib, (model #M4791), the Jamie crib (model #M7301), and the Jenny Lind crib (model #M7391) manufactured from May 2012 through December 2012.
The model number, serial number and manufacture date are printed on a label affixed to the bottom right hand side panel of the crib.
Cribs included in the recall have serial numbers that begin with “N00,” followed by one of the following numbers:
Model Number and Name | Serial Number (N00 + number below) |
M2801 Reagan | 4959/ 5035/ 5109 |
M4791 Emily | 4648/ 4669/ 4962 |
M7301 Jamie | 4954/ 5029 |
M7391 Jenny Lind | 4954/ 4620/ 4669/ 4758/ 4934/ 4994/ 5041/ 4648 |
The cribs, manufactured in China, were sold at Target and juvenile products stores nationwide and online at Amazon.com from May 2012, to December 2013, for between $150 and $250.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled cribs and contact Bexco for a free replacement mattress support which includes replacement brackets. In the meantime, parents are urged to find an alternate, safe sleeping environment for the child, such as a bassinet, play yard or toddler bed depending on the child’s age.
