Product: Munire Furniture Cribs
Importer: Munire Furniture Inc., of Piscataway, NJ
Recall: February 28, 2008. Munire recalled approximately 24,000 cribs because they do not meet the federal safety standard. Specifically, 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. No injuries have been reported. Only Munire cribs that were manufactured between November 1, 2005 and November 1, 2007 and that is one of the following models have been recalled. The model number can be found on the white label on the bottom inside of the right side rail. The manufacture date is printed on either the white label near the model number or on the white label located on the bottom of the headboard. Cribs with a green sticker on the mattress frame are not included in the recall. Recalled cribs were sold in juvenile furniture stores nationwide between November 2005 and November 2007 for $400-$600.
