What was recalled

The majority of these portable wood cribs were sold under the Gerry® brand name, and some were sold under the Evenflo® brand name. The recalled portable wood cribs have one of the following model numbers that can be found on a label on the mattress platform underneath the mattress: 8212 8222 8232 8242 8252 8282 8301 8302 8311 8312 8321 8322 8331 8332 8341 8342 8351 8352 8381 8382 8512 8522 8532 8542 8552 8582 8712 8752 No other cribs are included in this recall.

Hazard

If the hardware used to assemble the crib is not tight, the mattress support platform and mattress can fall to the floor. This poses a risk of injury to young children in the crib.

Injuries

There have been 41 reports of mattresses falling through portable wood cribs. Of these incidents, 17 children suffered bumps, bruises or scratches.

Where it was sold

  • Department and baby products stores nationwide sold these portable wood cribs, from January 1991 through December 2002, for about $99.
