According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), personal injury concerns have prompted a voluntary recall by multiple retailers of crib tents and yard tents manufactured by Tots in Mind, Inc.
There have been 27 product failures involve these cribs and tents including one causing the death of a two year old boy and one serious personal injury accident. The company, Tots in Mind, Inc. is no longer in business and has ceased all sales of its products.
The risk is that the tents may malfunction causing a child to be entrapped or suffer strangulation. In 2007 for instance, a young boy suffered a traumatic brain injury when a crib tent inverted and the boy was trapped under it at the neck.
Consumers who have purchased these products, pictured above and to the right, should contact their? retailer for the store?s return policy.
Retail stores that sold the tents and cribs are numerous but included Bed Bath & Beyond/Buy Buy Baby, Burlington Coat Factory, Toys R Us/Babies R Us, Walmart and online on websites including Amazon.com, for between $60 and $85.
