Munire Furniture 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 for cribs. The four support brackets on the mattress support spring are too long. The brackets prevent the spring from lowering to the full 26-inch minimum height in its lowest position, allowing children inside to crawl over the railing, posing a fall hazard.
The Recall Registry rates this serious — Fall risk.
What it looks like
