Mother Hubbard's Cupboards Cribs
The notice says to stop using it — see below for what to do.
What’s wrong
The cribs fail to meet the federal safety standards. The distance between the mattress support bracket in the lowest position and the top of the side rail in the highest position is less than the required 26 inches, posing a fall hazard to children who climb over the railing.
The Recall Registry rates this serious — Fall risk.
