Babette Frog Baby Bedding by bdbaby55

At a baby shower thrown for me by my office mates, I received the Flashback Four Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set by Glenna Jean. I was so happy because when I received it, I still did not know the sex of my baby and wanted it to be a surprise. The Flashback Four Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set by Glenna Jean could have easily been for a girl or boy's room.

The Let me describe the Flashback Baby Crib Set. It is dominantly in a velvet retro-mocha and tan. It is mixed with modern geometric circles and squares. It comes with a comforter, fitted sheet a dust ruffle and a bumper. The Flashback Four Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set by Glenna Jean's comforter measures thirty-three by forty two inches and the dust ruffle has a sixteen inch drop. The bumper measures ten inches high. The fitted sheet fits a standard sized crib. The bedding is trimmed with a black velvet cord. It is aptly named “Flashback” because the Flashback Four Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set by Glenna Jean is so mod.

Although I am not sure that the Flashback Four Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set by Glenna Jean would fit most mother's tastes, I think that it was the best my office mate could do, as is a unisex bedding set and as I mentioned, the sex of my baby was of yet undetermined.

I was surprised that the Flashback Four Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set by Glenna Jean also came at a hefty price tag of three hundred and eighty dollars! But it is a low maintenance bedding set mocha and tan temporarily masks little stains in between washings. I just do not like the velvet trim though, as I think it looks a little tacky for babies.

I do not know if the Flashback Four Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set by Glenna Jean will go well with most crib finishes. Perhaps certain shades of white, tan and brown would go well with it. But it may also give the whole child's room a subdued effect. I mostly like to have cheery colors on the furniture and beddings as well. But it was a gift, and it is much appreciated.

Since the Flashback Four Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set by Glenna Jean needs to be coordinated with the rest of the furniture as this design is so hard to match, I had to purchase other items off the Flashback by Glenna Jean Collection online. Other items I purchased were the Glenna Jean Flashback mobile, the Glenna Jean Flashback Mobile Arm Cover and the Glenna Jean Flashbacks Circles Pillow which were forty-five, fifteen and twenty-six dollars respectively. Quite expensive but worth it for those fond of the whole “Retro look”. But I would not buy the Four Piece Crib set myself.

The KidsLine Julia Six Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set is an affordable way to bring color and beauty to your children's rooms. The KidsLine Julia Six Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set includes a quilt, a bumper, a fitted crib sheet, a dust ruffle, a diaper stacker and a valance.

The KidsLine Julia Six Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set is dominantly purple and different shades of violet. The quilt comes in patches of rose, brown and different shades of purple, all with dainty floral designs. The quilt measures thirty-six by forty-five inches and is made from cotton, polyester and rayon. The KidsLine Julia Six Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set's bumper is the same design as the quilt and is eleven point five inches in height. The bumper is made of cotton, rayon and polyester as well.

The fitted sheet of the KidsLine Julia Six Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set is a really cute deep purple and violet floral pattern. It can fit a standard twenty-eight by fifty-two inch crib mattress.

The dust ruffle of the KidsLine Julia Six Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set is in a light purple color with a floral-and-vine design, and has a fourteen inch drop. The valance has the same design as the dust ruffle and measures sixty by fourteen inches. The KidsLine Julia Six Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set diaper stacker stands out with a dominantly light pinkish-violet shade with brown trimmings. Also present are the intricate floral design featured in the other KidsLine Julia Six Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set pieces.

Caring for the KidsLine Julia Six Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set is so easy, I am really glad I got it. It can be machine washed cold and ironed on the lowest setting. It is a beautiful crib set for baby girls, and it is low maintenance as well. The fact that the fitted sheet is a deep brownish-purple is good as it hides stains temporarily between washes. Less work for mommy is always a plus for me. I also like that it also comes with a dust ruffle. Not included in the KidsLine Julia Six Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set but also in the Julia Collection are Julia Drapes, Julia Basket with Liner, Julia Rug, Julia Night Light, Julia Switch Plate Cover and a Julia Picture Frame. Why, I could have decorated my daughter's room with the entire Julia Collection had I known about it sooner (it is too late as my baby girl was already born when I bought the KidsLine Julia Six Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set).

I would recommend the KidsLine Julia Six Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set on rooms with wall colors of light pink, lavender and white. The KidsLine Julia Six Piece Baby Crib Bedding Set is really a steal at around $160 for the ENTIRE six piece set.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) issued a recall this morning that includes 600,000 Simplicity cribs made in China. The problem with the crib stems from the drop down side which, due to shoddy hardware manufacture, may detach from its tracks, forming a potentially deadly gap in which an infant or toddler might get caught and suffocate.

Retailers Involved In the Crib Recall

In addition to the importer Simplicity Inc., which is no longer in business, the Simplicity crib recall includes K's Merchandise (also out of business), Dallas' AAFES (800-866-3605), Babies “R” Us (800-869-7787) of Wayne and Burlington Coat Factory/Baby Depot of Burlington, NJ, Grand Rapids' Meijer Distribution Inc. (866-280-8419), Omaha's Nebraska Furniture Mart (800-359-1200), Green Bay's ShopKo (800-791-7333), Minneapolis' Target (800-440-0680), and Bentonville's Wal-Mart Stores (800-925-6278).

Recalled Baby Crib Codes

The model numbers of the recalled Simplicity baby cribs are 8620, 8745, 8748, 8755, 8756, 8778, 8810, and 8994. Pair this code with the manufacturer's code which consists of four numbers and two letters. The codes involved end in 05DH, 05GB, 06DH, 06GB, 07DH or 07GB.

Simplicity Cribs in the News

Reuters alerts consumers that this is the second recall involving Simplicity in recent history, when 900,000 Simplicity bassinets were recalled in the wake of two deaths.

2008 Crib Recalls

Perusing the CPSC history of recalls tells a chilling story. On 08-05 the agency recalled 500 Baby Appleseed cribs (sold as Davenport Cribs) manufactured in Vietnam and imported by Baby Appleseed of California. Although no injuries were reported, the CPSC notes a failure to adhere to the minimum height requirement as grounds for the recall.

On the same day, Mother Hubbard's Cupboard recalled 1,300 of its cribs for the same reason. Manufactured in Canada, these high end cribs retailed for more than $500.

06-26 saw the recall of 1,200 2nd Nature Built to Grow infant cribs manufactured by the Stanley Furniture Company. Manufactured in Slovenia, these cribs sold for more than $1,100 and in spite of this rather steep price tag there still is the chance that an infant's head might get caught between the mattress and the crib itself, leading to suffocation.

Two days earlier the CPSC recalled 320,000 Taiwan made Jardine cribs. The problem arose from slats which broke too easily, injuring at least two of 42 children.

On 06-05 the Consumer Product Safety Commission recalled 550 Wendy Bellissimo Hidden Hills Collection Cribs manufactured in China. The space between the spindles failed to meet regulations, making it possible for a child to become trapped in between them.

24,000 cribs imported by Munire Furniture in New Jersey were recalled on 02-28. Manufactured in Indonesia, the height requirements were not met.

18 Wendy Bellissimo Hidden Hills Collection Drop-Side Cribs started out the 2008 infant crib recall. Loosening of the spindles was the main complaint.

Caveat Emptor!

Even a cursory glance over this list reveals that it does not matter how much money you spent on your crib, where it was manufactured, who sold it, what shape it is, and to which socioeconomic group you belong: your little angel could be at risk! Shoddy manufacture, failure to meet governmental guidelines and substandard material use may be found in any and all cribs, and it is up to the parent to regularly check the hardware, wiggle the spindles, and keep a vigilant eye on your baby's crib.

Before you put junior down for his nap today, please, check your baby's crib. It does not matter if it is involved in a recall or not, don't take the manufacturer's word for it. My offspring's crib features a “certified” label; unfortunately, the label is attached to a Simplicity crib. Need I say more?

Let the buyer – and parent – beware!
