The following notice has been issued by the manufacturer:
PRODUCT SAFETY NOTICE – IMPORTANT UPDATE
COSATTO STRATFORD COT BED
In April 2010, we developed a safety enhancement device for a version of our Stratford Cot Bed made between 2005 and 2009. This took the form of a simple device fitted at home, improving the product’s security when being used as a COT. If moved or lifted for any reason, we found it possible to create a gap between the lower and upper cot bed leg sections, with the possibility of injury to parent or child. It was also found possible that, in some cases, partial disassembly of the drop side mechanism could occur, rendering the cot unsafe.
If you already have the device supplied and fitted no further action is required.
If not and you still own a Cosatto Stratford Cot bed, in either white or nut finish, please check the Product Description Label as shown in the picture. Then check the Date Code Label to see if your cot bed is affected. You will find these labels on the mattress base slats.
The only versions affected have Date Code Labels dated from 01/09/2005 to 18/03/2009 (inclusive) and were sold by high street retailers and outlets throughout the UK and Ireland.
If you are using your cot bed as a COT, stop using it immediately and make alternative safe sleeping arrangements for your baby and contact us with your details to receive the safety enhancement device.
If you have converted your cot bed into a JUNIOR BED, it is safe to continue using it, but you still need to request the safety enhancement device for future use as a COT.
Once you have carried out the above checks and you think you may have a Stratford Cot bed that is affected, please contact Cosatto immediately, via 0871 977 3888, or via email at stratford@cosatto.com or simply write to the address printed below, marking your envelope "Stratford Cot bed".
We will send out, by return post and without charge, a component, an Allen key and fitting instructions to enable you to easily complete the safety enhancement.
We have taken this action to ensure the safety and wellbeing of our customers and apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
