Over 3,500 cribs recalled in Canada due to 'entrapment, suffocation hazards'

A recall has been issued for a baby bassinet “due to entrapment and suffocation hazards.”

Health Canada is recalling Fodoss Baby Bedside Bassinet because it does not meet the cribs, Cradles and Bassinets Regulations in Canada.

“Specifically, the cradle's sleep surface provides an incline angle greater than 7 degrees, posing a risk of entrapment and suffocation to the child,” the recall says.
