WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission announces the following recall in voluntary cooperation with the firm below. Consumers should stop using recalled products immediately unless otherwise instructed.

Name of product: Graco Toddler Bed

Units: About 1.2 Million

Manufacturer: Graco Children’s Products Inc. of Exton, Pa.

Hazard: A child’s arm, leg or foot can become entrapped between the slats in the guard rails or footboard. This can result in broken bones, sprains and other injuries to young children.

Description: The recalled Graco toddler beds are white plastic and steel with openings between the slats in the guard rails and footboard. The beds were sold under the names “Cozy Toddler Bed,” “Glow-in-the-Dark Toddler Bed,” and “Classic Toddler Bed.” There is a label on the guard rail or leg containing one of the following model numbers: “8801, 8801WR, 8821, 8824, 8828, 8833, 30066, 34434 and 11030,” a serial number, and the manufacturer’s address.
