BETHESDA, Md. — The Consumer Product Safety Commission has announced the recall of a certain brand of crib mattresses, due to a possible entrapment hazard.
Below is the information for this recall.
VYSSA crib mattress — The crib mattresses could create a gap between the mattress and crib ends larger than allowed by federal regulations, posing an entrapment hazard to infants. The recall involves 169,000 units of IKEA VYSSA style crib mattresses with the following five model names: VACKERT, VINKA, SPELEVINK, SLÖA and SLUMMER.
The firm has received two reports of infants becoming entrapped between the mattress and an end of the crib. The children were removed from the gap without injury. Consumers should inspect the recalled mattress by making sure there is no gap larger than the width of two fingers between the ends of the crib and the mattress. If any gap is larger, customers should immediately stop using the recalled mattresses and return it to any IKEA store for an exchange or a full refund.
