WASHINGTON - Safety officials announced a recall of 24,000 cribs Thursday and also warned parents against putting their babies to bed with pillows and other soft bedding that could suffocate them.

The 24,000 Indonesian-made cribs were recalled for putting children at risk of falling out. The cribs, imported by Munire Furniture Inc., have improper brackets that don't allow their mattresses to be fully lowered. This could allow children inside the crib to crawl over the railing and fall.

The recall includes the company's Majestic Curved Top, Majestic Flat Top, Essex, Brighton/Sussex and Captiva cribs with various model numbers. The cribs were sold at children's specialty stores between November 2005 and November 2007. No injuries have been reported.

That's Carson's crib!

We dropped that puppy straight to the floor once he started to pull himself up for the exact same reason they're stating: The crib doesn't drop down far enough. Crazy. Oh well, I guess it's not a problem for us now that it's been transformed into a full-size bed. Thanks for posting this though... come to think of it my Be-Fri's got the same crib as us, I'll have to call her.

Thanks for posting that. I'll forward that on to one of my friends as I think she has that crib.
