February 29, 2008

Munire Furniture Inc., of Piscataway, NJ has recalled about 24,000 wooden cribs. The cribs do not meet federal safety standards. The support brackets on the mattress support spring are too long and prevent the spring from lowering to its minimum height of 26 inches, allowing children to crawl over the railing.

The recalled wooden cribs include: Majestic Curved Top cribs with model number 9500; Majestic Flat Top cribs with model number 9000; Essex cribs with model number 7100; Brighton/Sussex cribs with model number 9100 and Captiva cribs with model number 5100. Only cribs with manufacture dates between November 1, 2005 and November 1, 2007 are included in the recall. Model numbers are printed on the white label on the bottom inside of the right side rail and manufacture dates are printed on either the white label near the model number or on the white label on the bottom of the headboard. Cribs with green stickers on the mattress frame are not included in the recall.

The recalled cribs were made in Indonesia and sold at specialty children's product stores nationwide from November 2005 to November 2007 for $400 to $600. Parents should immediately stop using the cribs and contact Munire Furniture to receive replacement spring brackets. Call (866) 586-9639 between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. ET or visit www.munirefurniture.com.
