CPSC, Baby's Dream Furniture Inc. Announce Recall to Repair Cribs

Hazard

The three hinges along the fold-down drop gate can crack or break and allow babies to have their fingers pinched. Additionally, a misaligned latch where the latch trigger does not lock securely can allow the drop gate to open if a child leans on it, and the child could fall out.
