Dorel Asia cribs are recalled after a 6-month-old dies

The Consumer Product Safety Commission is recalling about 635,000 cribs after the death of a 6-month-old child and dozens of reports of safety problems, the government agency said Tuesday. The cribs, distributed by Barbados-based Dorel Asia, feature hardware that can fail, causing the drop-side to detach from the crib. When the drop-side detaches, it creates a space in which an infant or toddler can become trapped and suffocate or strangle, the agency said. In addition, the cribs can pose an entrapment and strangulation hazard when a slat is damaged. This can occur when the crib is in use or in storage, when it is being put together, taken apart or reassembled, or during shipping and handling.
