The recall covers Stork Craft Baby cribs manufactured and distributed between May 2000 and November 2008, as well as Stork Craft cribs with the Fisher-Price logo distributed between May 2000 and December 2004, sold in various styles and finishes.
According to the recall notice, consumers should stop using the recalled cribs immediately and find an alternative safe sleeping environment for their child.

The manufacture date and model number can be found on the assembly instruction sheet attached to the mattress support board, along with the firm's contact information.
