ducduc Recalls Fixed-Side Cribs Due to Fall and Entrapment Hazards

ducduc is recalling about 330 fixed-side cribs because bottom rails can separate, causing spindles to detach and the mattress to drop.

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 (crib) with fall and entrapment hazards, but the source explicitly states that no injuries were reported, fitting the High severity criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

ducduc llc is recalling about 330 fixed-side cribs sold under the model names AJ, Austin, Cabana, Campaign, and Parker. The recall covers units with item codes ending in 2009, 2010, and 2011. These cribs were sold at the ducduc New York showroom, online, at specialty stores, and through interior designers nationwide from January 2009 through February 2011 for between $1,500 and $1,800.

The bottom rails on the crib sides can separate from the sides when the mattress is in the lowest position. This separation can cause the spindles to separate and the mattress to drop, posing fall and entrapment hazards for young children. The manufacturer has received five reports of separated rails, but no injuries have been reported.

Consumers should stop using these cribs immediately if the mattress is in the lowest position. Parents are urged to find an alternate, safe sleeping environment for their child, such as a play yard, bassinet, or toddler bed, depending on the child's age. Consumers should contact ducduc for a free repair kit which includes new crib sides. Ducduc is contacting each customer directly.
