  1. This is absolute CRAP. Jardione only hass two models of crib still on the market, and they are simply alternative colors to the ones recalled!

    I called the CPSC and jardine last time to make a stink about how they can go sayin the wood colored crib is safe, but the black one is not. They made a song and a dance about how every crib of every color was tested, and only the recalled ones had problems.

    Funny because if that were true, then we would not be where we are now.

    My son sleeps in one of the two colors not recalled, and I am supposed to believe them that it is safe for the third time?

    Wonderful. The recall process takes 1-2 weeks, and you must send in some of the hardware. What is my son supposed to sleep in until we get our voucher?!
