Simplicity Newport Crib Recall

When my Grandson was born, we bought him a Simplicity Newport Crib.  It was a 4-in-1 bed, meaning it was a crib, toddler bed, youth bed and dresser.  It was adorable.  Well they were made in China and there was a massive recall on them.  Simplicity went out of business but the Consumer Protection Agency said the store where purchased, should take them back.

The recall was due to the mattress support snapping or bending and it had caused several injuries and even a death.  That really scared us and we did not want to take any more chances with it.  

Yesterday, we returned the bed to Walmart and was given a gift card for the total purchase price.  Was amazed that Walmart would do that but am very thankful.

Ian, my Grandson is now the proud owner of a toddler bed.  Will write more about that later.  He was very excited when his Aunt Amy and Mom were assembling it.  He was a good helper for being just 2 years old.  He couldn't wait to go to bed last night.
