  1. Hurt, no treatment

    Made Oct 2, 2017, sent to the company Oct 11, 2017, published by CPSC Oct 25, 2017

    The product, in the report: Renew standard crib model number 343-4440 Brown Manufactured in Taiwan May 2011 Purchased early 2013

    My report today is due to the fact that a crib used only for 3 babies (top weight 24 pounds) one baby at a time, became a trap for my one year old. The arm of the metal frame that holds the crib mattress snapped, setting the corner of the mattress on the ground and my child slid down where her legs were both trapped between the wood and the mattress. There are bruises on her legs but they’re minor and she will be fine. There are no recalls on this product as we frequently check all of our baby products to be safe. I purchased it at jcpenny in 2013 for my first child, used it for first and second children then it sat unused for a year before we used it for our third child. I don’t feel this crib has been used enough to be a hazard or even be considered an old product but the stores tell me it was discontinued and I have no options. Discontinued or not a customer should be notified when things are unsafe for their children especially considering how lucky we were that her legs slid down the hole and not her head.

    The product, in the report: Baby crib

    I am one very upset mother as I type this letter about my baby crib! I have the “Renew Standard Crib(#RN343-9504B)” from JcPenny’s I have huge complaint about this crib, today I woke up to my 1yr almost 2 screaming bloody murder because his leg got stuck in between the slates on the crib. I tried everything in order to get his leg out and last resort was to rip the slat off which I was afraid of hurting him more if I didn’t do this! So, now here I sit with a unusable crib. Just let me say this is not the first time this has happened. I am so surprised this has not between recalled or maybe it is and I just unaware. Please let me know. I am so afraid that next time it will end in broken leg or who knows what else. I just want you to take this very “Seriously”
