Bassinet Recall After Infant Deaths

By Eddie Farah

The Consumer Product Safety Commission, along with six retailers, is recalling nearly 900,000 Simiplicity bassinets because of a strangling hazard.

The recall follows the August death of an infant girl from Kansas who became entrapped between the bed's metal bars. Last year another infant girl from Missouri died when she strangled in the bars of the bassinet.

The Simplicity 3-in-1 and 4-in-1 convertible bassinets have metal bars that are covered by an adjustable fabric, attached by Velcro.

The warning does not cover bassinets produced in recent months that have the fabric permanently attached over the lower bar.

Return the dangerous baby product to the manufacturer where you bought it.

The majority of these used bassinets are still used in daycare facilities and can be found in consignment shops.

Here are the numbers of the faulty cribs:
