Criblike Mattresses Recalled Due to Risk of Serious Injury or Death from Entrapment or Suffocation; Violates Mandatory Standards for Mattresses; Sold on Amazon by Mengna

The aftermarket mattresses violate the mandatory standard for crib mattresses, as the mattresses may not adequately fit certain play yards or non-full-sized cribs, posing a deadly entrapment hazard. Babies can suffocate in gaps between an undersized mattress, or extra padding, and side walls of a product, especially when the infant’s face becomes trapped against the side and the mattress, preventing the infant from breathing. The non-full-sized crib mattress also fails to meet the mandatory standard for mattress set flammability.
