CPSC Recalls: Lamps and ChildESIGNS Cribs

February 9th 2010 by Dr.MOZ in Cribs, Recalls

Two recall warnings were released by the CPSC today, so I wanted to help spread the word because the crib is responsible for three infant deaths. Please follow the links below to learn more if either product looks familiar.

  • Generation 2 Worldwide and “ChildESIGNS” drop side crib brands recalled (Three Infant Deaths Reported): Due to the fact that Generation 2 went out of business in 2005, CPSC has limited information about the cribs. Although CPSC does not know the total number of units distributed or the years of production, it is believed that there were more than 500,000 of these cribs sold to consumers. (see more)
  • Innovage LLC recalls Discovery Kids lamps due to fire and burn hazards: A defect in the lamp’s printed circuit board can cause an electrical short, posing a fire and burn hazard to consumers. This recall involves the Discovery Kids(tm) Animated Marine Lamp with model number 1627121 or 1628626 and the Animated Safari Lamp with model number 1627124 or 1628626. (see more)

That’s it for today everyone. Please let me know if you have additional recall information from the last 48 hours by posting it in the comment box below.

Have fun and stay healthy,

    Thank you for the articles and updates. I don’t know what’s going on in the world with all the recalls. I thinks social media affects spreading the damage faster.

    That’s bad. Thank you for sharing this! I lot of mommies will appreciate this post. That is really not good especially to those who bought it and didn’t know that it’s dangerous to their babies.

    Yesterday my daughter was cleaning her one yr old sons room and he was in his Childesigns Belmont Bed that she had earned during her pregnancy thru a non profit bed program for crib safety. Her back was turned to him and she heard a loud pop and thought he had thrown one of his toys onto the floor. She turned to him and there he was standing up in the bed with the drop down side rail falling forward and luckily she caught him as he was going with it. In the beginning we checked the CPSC regarding all the drop side cribs that were being recalled and at that time iChildesigns was not on the list of cribs…… after this incident yesterday I checked again and this one definitely needs to be added to the list. I called and left a msg with the CPSC but since she got this thru a program….I wonder who will be responsible to replace it? Don’t purchase a bed with a plastic part on each side of the rail.
