LaNacional Cama Cuna No. 2 baby cribs
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
LaNacional distributed 2,288 infant cribs in Puerto Rico between January 1994 and April 1995 through 18 retailers, including chain stores. The three recalled crib models—the CAMA CUNA R.N.C., CAMA CUNA No. 2, and Crib with Drawers—do not comply with safety standards and pose strangulation and entrapment hazards to infants. The cribs' slats are spaced more than 2 3/8 inches apart, allowing a child's head to become caught, and some corner posts extend one or more inches high, creating a strangulation risk if clothing catches on them. The recalled cribs lack required identifying marks and instructions and can be identified by the absence of printed instructions and markings except for "MADE IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC" printed under the mattress support.
According to the record, consumers who own these cribs should stop using them immediately and return them to the store where purchased for a refund. For more information, consumers can contact LaNacional at Calle Carolina #549 Interior, Hato Rey, Puerto Rico 00917 or call (809) 758-3606.

Entrapment
December 5, 1995 Release # 96-033 WASHINGTON, D.C. - In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), LaNacional, cxa, Hato Rey, P.R. and Dominican Republic, is announcing the recall of three models of cribs distributed in Puerto Rico. These cribs do not comply with safety standards and pose strangulation and entrapment hazards to infants.The distance between the cribs' slats is greater than 2 3/8 inches and some of the cribs' corner posts are one or more inches high. A child's head can get caught in the space between slats, which present an entrapment hazard, or a child could strangle when clothes catch on the corner posts. In addition the cribs lack required identifying marks and instructions and fail to meet other requirements.These cribs were sold assembled without a box. Assembled cribs can be identified by a lack of printed instructions and markings, except for the words "MADE IN THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC" printed under the mattress support. The three crib styles involved in the recall are the CAMA CUNA R.N.C., the CAMA CUNA No. 2, and the Crib with Drawers. The Crib with Drawers (41" x 78" x 19") has two drawers in its base and corner posts. Its wooden headboard has an oval-shaped cut out with woven straw in the center. Slats on the side are 5/8" round and 19" high. The "CAMA CUNA R.N.C." (42 1/2" x 72' x 31") has corner posts and a carved headboard. Slats on the side are 5/8" round and 19" high.
