5.13.09: Eddie Bauer Play Yards Recalled
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Dorel Juvenile Group Inc., of Columbus, Indiana announced a voluntary recall of about 71,000 Eddie Bauer Soothe & Sway Play Yards.  The play yard’s rocking bassinet attachment can tilt even when secured by straps in the non-rocking mode or can stay tilted without returning to a level sleeping surface while in the rocking mode, causing an infant to roll to the corner or side of the bassinet.

  2. My daughter's Jardine crib was recalled. It was such a pain in the butt to dissassemble it and pay more for a new one. The US manufacturers need to wake up and QUIT MAKING things in CHINA!!!!!

  3. We were lucky enough to have been given a silver tiffany ring for a gift and it shouldn't sit in a drawer! better to know that it is pure sterling than worry about which plastic is ok.
