The Consumer Product Safety Commission has renewed a warning to parents about close-sleeper/bedside-sleeper bassinets after two more infants were killed when they became trapped in the bassinets. The bassinets were manufactured by Simplicity. According to the Washington Post, “The company’s 3-in-1 and 4-in-1 convertible bassinets contain metal bars spaced farther apart than federal standards allow. If the Velcro-fastened fabric covering the metal bars of the bassinets is not properly adjusted, it can be dangerous.” More information is available from the CPSC Web site.
