Issue
Health Canada’s sampling and evaluation program has determined that these cribs do not meet the Cribs, Cradles and Bassinets Regulations in Canada. Specifically, the cribs failed to meet the testing for structural integrity as the mattress support broke. Additionally, the crib slats can break. These issues present entrapment and injury hazards to children.
As of May 17, 2023, the company has received no reports of incidents or injuries in Canada.
