Q&A: Simplicity Crib Recalls…?

Question by ?Mommy to 2 year old Jacob?: Simplicity Crib Recalls…?
So I just found out the Simplicity Christina Crib N’ Changer combo crib I have is recalled… and my model number is one of them. Last year I heard this too but the email said if the hardware was installed correctly and not upside down then it’s fine…. now that is not the case and this is a totally new recall.
My husband’s friend got us this from Netshops.com and she sent me this email
Today the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced a recall of several models of drop side cribs manufactured by Simplicity Inc. and SFCA Inc. According to our records, you purchased one of these cribs from Netshops. (The model numbers that Netshops sold are 8756, 8765, and 8996.) Per the recall the CPSC is advising that you stop using these cribs immediately.
Recalls are the responsibility of the manufacturer of the product. We, however, have been unable to get in touch with Simplicity today. If you have a crib affected by this recall, please call 866-508-1142, to arrange for a replacement.
If you have any questions about this recall, please go to www.cpsc.gov.
Thank you.
What do you think will be done? Will it be replaced or do we have to do that now? I have already emailed netshops… but what they hell!? Starting tomorrow for nap he’ll go in his pack and play for the time being (he’s already asleep now and I hate to wake him..) but who else is dealing with this??
I just found a good one if this is what I comes to for us… http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=10630001
I am so torn… and upset. I loved this crib dammit. lol
hubby wants to go set up pack n play now,…but poor Jacob is sleeping soundly and I hate to disturb him.. it wont fit in the door put together.. but I figure we’ve gone since 3 months old in it so he’ll be fine for one more night

We’re going though this too. We ordered ours online at Walmart.com, so we could easily take ours in to get a refund. Now, we are going to go shopping this weekend. In the meantime, Kaelin sleeps in her pack n play. She’s not too picky where she sleeps — we could put her in a cardboard box and she’d be okay with it! lol
I’m not looking forward to crib hunting again!
Give your answer to this question below!
i havent got that crib , but i found out yesterday that the one i have got is on recall ,
the only thing i can find out about it is some news atrical online .. its not even in the recall website ..
and what they have sed about it , is that they have recomended the wrong size mattress for the crib ..
so i dont know if i should even bother or not ..
to me the mattress is a tad to small , but my son is 9 months now and a big boy , it doesnt seem like it will affect him .
I had the Jardine Crib (from Babies-r-us) and it was recalled 2 months ago. That company made us send the nuts and screws back and a label from the bottom of the crib and they then sent us a voucher for a free crib, $175 towards a new one (took about 4 weeks). I’m sure that company will do the same thing.
It is a pain, but better to be safe then sorry. I’m sure he’ll be fine in the pack-n-play.
We bought Kaitlyn a “big girl bed” a few days after the recall and she loves it. The new crib we’ll use for baby #2, due in February.
