The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said Thursday that Simplicity Inc. is recalling about 400,000 cribs that put babies at risk of death by suffocation. The commission said consumers should stop using the cribs immediately. An eight-month-old baby in Houston, Texas, died when it got stuck between the mattress and a defective drop-down side of the crib.
The cribs were sold at department stores, children's stores and other retailers around the country from January 2005 to June 2009. They cost between $150 and $300. The commission said the cribs should be returned to the store where they were purchased.
