Consumer agency warns of SafetyCraft crib dangers

WASHINGTON (AP) - February 3, 2011

The Consumer Product Safety Commission said Thursday that the hardware found on SafetyCraft drop-side cribs can fail and place infants and toddlers at risk of strangulation and suffocation.

The agency's staff urges parents and caregivers to stop using these cribs immediately and find an alternative, safe sleeping environment for their baby. They say people should not attempt to fix these cribs.

The commission said Generation 2 Worldwide of Dothan, Ala., ceased operations in 2005.
