"This recall includes Stork Craft cribs with manufacturing and distribution dates between January 1993 and October 2009. This recall also includes Stork Craft cribs with the Fisher-Price logo that have manufacturing dates between October 1997 and December 2004. The Stork Craft cribs with the Fisher-Price logo were first sold in the U.S. in July 1998 and in Canada in September 1998. The cribs were sold in various styles and finishes. The manufacture date, model number, crib name, country of origin, and the firm’s name, address, and contact information are located on the assembly instruction sheet attached to the mattress support board. The firm’s insignia “storkcraft baby” or “storkling” is inscribed on the drop-side teething rail of some cribs. In Stork Craft cribs that contain the “Fisher-Price” logo, this logo can be found on the crib’s teething rail, in the manufacturer’s instructions, on the assembly instruction sheet attached to the mattress support board, and on the end panels of the Twinkle-Twinkle and Crystal crib models.

Major retailers in the United States and Canada sold the recalled cribs including BJ’s Wholesale Club, J.C. Penney, Kmart, Meijer, Sears, USA Baby, and Wal-Mart stores and online at Amazon.com, Babiesrus.com, Costco.com, Target.com, and Walmart.com from January 1993 through October 2009 for between $100 and $400.

The cribs were manufactured in Canada, China and Indonesia."

Re: Over 1.2 million cribs recalled due to Infant Deaths

Great info to pass along GG and yes we have to keep the little ones safe.

I heard on the news tonight that they are trying to stop all drop side cribs. Well its been a long time since a crib entered my home but I do remember the drop sides. I loved them they made it so much easier to get the real little ones out or in when they are sleeping. I hope that they atleast fine a safe way but one that still makes it easy for the parents.

Can I just say I'm so glad those years are over. Next crib to come in my house will be for a grand baby and that better not be for a real long time.

You'd think by the year 2009 they'd be able ot design cribs so they don't kill. I mean, we've designed iPhones and sent people to the moon ....
