Jardine has recalled 320,000 cribs sold between January 2002 and May 2008. The cribs were sold at KidsWorld, Geoffrey Stores, Toys R Us and Babies R Us. For a full list of the cribs affected by this recall see Jardine's website.
The cribs have been recalled because the wooden slats and spindles can break creating a dangerous gap in the crib where children can become trapped, injured, or strangled. The company has received 42 reports from consumers of the wood slats or spindles breaking, including 4 reports of children becoming trapped and 2 who were injured as a result.
If you own one of the recalled cribs you should:
- Stop using the crib immediately.
- Contact Jardine about obtaining a full refund or credit towards a new crib.
- Discard of the crib, do not donate it, sell it, or give to someone you know.
