Ikea Recalls 26,000 Cribs in US and Canada

Washington, DCIKEA Home Furnishings is recalling about 20,000 SNIGLAR Cribs in the US and a further 6,000 in Canada because the four bolts provided with some SNIGLAR cribs to secure the mattress support are not long enough. This can cause the mattress support to detach and collapse, creating a risk of entrapment and suffocation to a child in the crib.

This recall involves SNIGLAR non-drop-side, full-size cribs with model number 60091931. SNIGLAR, IKEA and the model number are printed on a label attached to the mattress support. The crib frame and mattress support are made of natural/light-colored wood.

The affected cribs were sold exclusively at IKEA stores nationwide from October 2005 through June 2010 for about $80.
