Bexco Expands Recall of DaVinci Cribs Due to Entrapment and Fall Hazards

Bexco is expanding a recall of DaVinci brand cribs because a metal bracket can break, creating a risk of entrapment, falls, or lacerations for infants.

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 potential for entrapment, falls, and lacerations, but the source explicitly states that no injuries have been reported, which caps the severity at High per the rubric.

Plain-English summary

Bexco Enterprises Inc. is expanding its recall of approximately 6,000 DaVinci brand full-size cribs, including the Reagan, Emily, Jamie, and Jenny Lind models. The recall also includes 13 units sold in Canada. These cribs were manufactured from May 2012 through December 2012 and sold at Target, juvenile products stores, and online at Amazon.com between May 2012 and December 2013 for between $150 and $250.

The recall is due to a hazard where a metal bracket connecting the mattress support to the crib can break. If this occurs, it creates an uneven sleeping surface or a gap, which can cause a baby to become entrapped, fall, or suffer lacerations from the broken metal. The firm has received five additional reports of the mattress support brackets breaking and detaching, but no injuries have been reported.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled cribs and contact Bexco for a free replacement mattress support, which includes replacement brackets. In the meantime, 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. Consumers can contact DaVinci toll-free at 888-673-6652 or visit www.davincibaby.com/safetyrecall3 for more information.
