RECALL: Sleepi Crib Foam Mattress Due to Entrapment

WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in cooperation with the Stokke of Georgia, announced a voluntary recall about 1,000 Sleepi Crib Foam Mattresses. The crib mattresses are not properly sized, creating a gap, posing an entrapment hazard to young children. There were no reported incidents/injuries. Only oval shaped Sleepi cribs with foam mattresses sold under the following model numbers are the subject of this recall: 660321, 660320, 660301,660305, 660318, 652268, 652269, 652246, 652247 and 652248. The cribs were sold in a variety of colors, including white, walnut, natural, cherry and whitewash. The model number can be found on the packaging and underside of the crib. They were sold at juvenile product retailers nationwide and via the Internet from September 2006 through March 2007 for between $750 and $850 and manufactured in Italy.
Consumers should stop using the cribs immediately and contact Stokke LLC to receive a free replacement mattress. For additional information, contact Stokke toll-free at 877-978-6553 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, or visit http://www.stokkeusa.com/
