Plain-English summary

Caramia Furniture is recalling approximately 1,000 units of the "Diana" drop-side crib. The cribs were manufactured between September 2002 and June 2004 and sold at Buy Buy Baby and other juvenile product and mass merchandise stores nationwide from September 2002 through December 2005 for between $240 and $370. The product was distributed by Caramia Furniture and Mother Hubbard's Cupboards, both located in Ontario, Canada, and manufactured in Slovenia.

The recall is due to a hazard where the slats on the crib's drop-side can detach from the top and bottom rails. This defect poses fall and entrapment hazards to children. The firm has received 18 reports of slats detaching from the rails, but no injuries have been reported.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled Diana crib. They should contact Caramia Furniture to receive a free replacement drop side, which will be available beginning in March 2010. For additional information, consumers can contact Caramia at (877) 728-0342 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit the firm's website at www.caramiafurniture.com.
