What happened

Suntech Enterprises has recalled the SunKids convertible crib/playpen/bassinet/bed, model number PY256, which is identified by "SunKids" embroidered on the bottom left of the drop side. The crib's mesh sides can expand and create dangerous gaps between the side and the mattress if the mesh is not zipped into place or if an additional mattress is added, posing entrapment and suffocation hazards to young children. Additionally, the crib's drop side can fail to fully latch, creating a fall hazard.

According to the recall notice, consumers who own a recalled crib should immediately stop using it and return it to the store where it was purchased for a full refund. The convertible cribs were available in navy blue, light blue, pink, beige, white, beige checker, and pink heart colors.
