Simplicity Crib Recall: Aspen, Gabrielle, Camille, Providence, Shenandoah

Please email the following Simplicity crib recall information to everyone you know who cares for infants and toddlers. Prevent a death.

Retailers throughout the United States have recalled about 600,000 Simplicity cribs because the company that purchased the manufacturer of the cribs refuses to recall the dangerous cribs.

The recalled Simplicity cribs have hardware that is not the correct size, allowing the drop side to come off the tracks. When the drop side detaches or partially detaches, it creates a hazardous gap, which can lead to infant entrapment and suffocation.

The recalled Simplicity drop-side cribs are described as follows:
The recalled model numbers include: 8620, 8745, 8748, 8755, 8756, 8778, 8810, and 8994. The recalled drop side cribs have a date code, which can be found on a label on the headboard under the mattress support, which ends in 05DH, 05GB, 06DH, 06GB, 07DH or 07GB (examples: 1806 DH or 0507 GB). The recalled model names include: Aspen and Crib N Changer Combo, Gabrielle, Camille, Providence and Shenandoah. Only the brand name “Simplicity” can be seen on the label on the headboard.
What this description means is that it may not be immediately apparent if you have a recalled Simplicity crib. You will need to look on the label on the headboard for “Simplicity” and the numbers above. If you are still unsure, you should contact the retailer where you purchased the crib.

The following retailers have recalled the Simplicity cribs:
AAFES, of Dallas, Texas
Babies“R”Us, of Wayne, N.J.
Burlington Coat Factory/Baby Depot, of Burlington, N.J.
K’s Merchandise (out of business)
Meijer Distribution Inc., of Grand Rapids, Mich.
Nebraska Furniture Mart, of Omaha, Neb.
ShopKo, of Green Bay, Wis.
Target, of Minneapolis, Minn.
