More Jardine Cribs Sold at Babies 'R' Us Recalled

April 30, 2009
Jardine Enterprises is announcing the second expanded recall of Jardine Cribs sold by Babies 'R' Us. The wooden crib slats can break, creating a gap, which can pose an entrapment and strangulation hazard to infants and toddlers.

The latest recall is for about 96,000 cribs. Another 320,000 were recalled in June 2008 and 56,450 units were recalled in January 2009.

CPSC has received 31 incident reports of slats breaking, including two reports of children becoming entrapped in the gap created by the broken slat on the crib models identified below. In 10 of these incidents, consumers reported that their child broke the slat while in the crib. There was one report of minor injuries, consisting of bumps and abrasions.

This recall involves 7 models of Jardine wooden cribs with the date codes identified below. Cribs with other date codes are not affected by this recall. The date code and model number are printed on the label located on the inside of the bottom rail of the headboard or footboard.

The cribs were sold at KidsWorld, Geoffrey Stores, Toys 'R' Us, and Babies 'R' Us stores nationwide, and at babiesrus.com, from September 2005 through April 2009 for between $220 and $330. They were made in China and Vietnam.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled cribs and contact Jardine to receive a full credit toward the purchase of a new crib. Jardine will provide consumers with detailed instructions for purchasing cribs in retail stores and online.

For additional information, contact Jardine at (800) 646-4106 between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit the firm's Web site at http://www.jardinecribrecall.com/
