Drop Rail Crib Safety Update
(As of November 24, 2009)
StorkCraft recalls over 2 Million drop rail cribs.
In a continued pattern of recalls, Storkcraft Inc has advised clients of a new recall of drop rail cribs. The ASTM which certifies the safety of Canadian and US cribs has advised retailers that it will no longer certify any drop rail cribs in North America. This comes after the ASTM has tracked over 5 Million units being recalled over the last number of years and from various manufacturers.

In over 12 years of business, KIDS Has Never Had Even One Recall of Any Crib Brand That We Offer.
Our Canadian Manufacturers, like AP Industries and College Woodwork conform to not only the Mandatory Safety Standards as set out by the ASTM; but they meet Voluntary Safety standards as well. These companies ensure that all their cribs are safety tested in Canada or the US. For example, Finishes are sent out to independent testing agencies to ensure that lead content is within the strict limits mandated.
Moreover, manufacturers like College Woodwork in conjunction with their Offspring product ensure that all four sides of the cribs are pulled 9000 times to ensure longterm stability. Entanglement testing ensures that baby will be safe and that clothes will not get caught on any edges. Further, forty-five pounds of weight is hammered into each corner and at the centres at least 150 times to ensure that the crib is safe.
Please feel free to contact us to discuss your safety concerns and crib needs.
