Name of Product: Davenport Cribs

Hazard: The cribs fail to meet the federal safety standards for cribs. The cribs have a two mattress support system.

The recalled cribs have two mattress support systems-a metal one and a wooden one. Newer Davenport cribs with model numbers beginning with 244-xxxx-xxxx that have one mattress support are not included in the recall.
