 Drop-side beds made by Delta Enterprises between 1995 and 2007
Delta Enterprises is voluntarily recalling nearly 1.6 million older versions of its drop-side cribs after two infant deaths. The cribs were made between 1995 and 2007, according to the company.
The cribs either required safety pegs that may have been lost during reassembly or replacements for pegs which may have worn out after many uses, the company said.
Delta’s Web site urged consumers to immediately stop using the product if they used spring pegs and were made in China before 2006. Consumers were urged to stop using the cribs immediately if the safety pegs were missing.
Both infants suffocated in their cribs. In one instance, there was no safety peg and when the crib’s side detached, it left a gap the infant got stuck in. In the second instance, the infant died in a similar fashion when a spring-peg failed to lock and the side detached.
The recall doesn’t affect any cribs in retail inventory now.
