Crib recalls
Yesterday, August 5, the CPSC announced two separate recalls involving cribs. Both have been recalled because they do not meet the minimum federal safety standards.
The cribs involved int he recall are 1300 units made by Mother's Hubbard's Cupboard's of Toronto, Canada, and 500 units made by Baby Appleseed of California.
Far too often products such as the cribs listed above make it into the market place while they fail to meet safety requirements. For instance child safety seats are self policed. That means the manufacturers have the "minimum" standards they are required to meet and they self test to see if their safety seat meets those requirements.

When will the state make the manufacturers and especially the merchants of this shoddy hardware suffer?
This household in Huntersville has gone through THREE crib recalls in the eight months since the birth of my Grandson!
Each recall costs a lot of time, effort and money on OUR part with no skin off of the nose of the vendors!
Until the vendors feet are held to the fire we will ALWAYS have no choice but to buy what they sell which always seems to go down to price vs. QUALITY!
