Re: All about cots/cribs?
I went to Ikea in June/July 2011 and couldn’t find a single crib on display.. when I inquired them I was told that Ikea had removed them all due to safety reasons so no cribs were being sold during that time frame and then they brought all of them back in Nov/December.. it may not have been “recalled” per se but Ikea stopped selling cribs for a while. It was my personal experience.. I never followed up on that s I don’t know what were the reasons or what happened..It may very well be just a judgment call at their end.. I remember wlamart removed all types of Enfamil formulas in December 2011 when that one child died due to other reasons but were thought to be due to Enfamil…so corporations do that for no reasons too. 
My point was I never got to test ikea cribs as much as I wanted to or I would have shared my opinion with the OP.
