On August 8, 2008 the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission in association with Mother Hubbard’s Cupboards, of Toronto, Canada issued a nationwide recall of the Mother Hubbard’s Cupboards Recalls Cribs Due to Fall Hazard.
If your child or somebody you know has been injured by a Mother Hubbard’s Cupboards Crib, you should contact an Injury Help Network attorney / lawyer immediately. You may be entitled to compensation for your injuries and we can help.
According to the CPSC, the cribs fail to meet the federal safety standards. The distance between the mattress support bracket in the lowest position and the top of the side rail in the highest position is less than the required 26 inches, posing a fall hazard to children who climb over the railing.
Note from CPSC Staff:
Federal Regulations require that all full-size cribs have a minimum rail height of 26”
to help prevent fall hazards. To determine whether or not a crib meets this requirement, the mattress support platform must be placed in the lowest configuration (for the oldest users of the crib). Once in the lowest setting, remove the mattress and measure the distance from the top of the mattress platform (NOT the top of the mattress) to the top of the front rail. If the crib has a drop side or movable front rail, the measurement should be taken when the rail is in the uppermost locked position.
The cribs were sold at juvenile product stores from March 2006 through March 2008 for between $500 and $650.
