Status Furniture Rosebud Drop-Side Cribs Recalled for Entrapment Hazards

The Land of Nod is recalling Status Furniture Rosebud drop-side cribs because the drop-side rail hardware can fail, creating gaps that pose entrapment, suffocation, and fall risks to infants and toddlers.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (drop-side cribs) with hazards of suffocation, strangulation, and falls, but the source explicitly states that no injuries have been reported, which caps the severity at High per the rubric.

Plain-English summary

The Land of Nod is recalling approximately 300 Status Furniture "Rosebud" drop-side cribs. These cribs, which are white or antique white with plastic drop-side hardware, were sold at The Land of Nod retail stores and online from January 2003 through September 2004 for about $600. The manufacturer, Status Furniture of Quebec, Canada, is out of business, so The Land of Nod is conducting the recall on their behalf.

The recall is due to a hazard where the drop-side rail hardware can break or fail, allowing the drop side to detach from the crib. This creates a hazardous gap between the drop-side rail and the mattress where infants and toddlers can become wedged or entrapped, posing risks of suffocation and strangulation. Additionally, children can fall out of the crib if the drop-side rail falls unexpectedly or detaches. CPSC and The Land of Nod have received 13 reports of drop-side hardware malfunctioning or failing, but no injuries have been reported.

Consumers should stop using these cribs immediately and contact The Land of Nod to receive instructions for a merchandise credit for the full purchase price. Parents are urged to find an alternate, safe sleeping environment for the child, such as a bassinet, play yard, or toddler bed, depending on the child's age.
