The following products have been recalled:

Specialty stores nationwide sold the candles. Consumers should return them to the place of purchase for an exchange or full refund. Details: by phone at 800-693-1199; by Web at http://www.cpsc.gov.

About 180 Sleigh Round Cribs, imported by Song Lin Industrial Inc., because the cribs' instructions tell consumers to assemble the crib with the mattress support in the highest position and do not indicate that it can be moved to a lower setting. Children who can sit or stand up in the crib could fall. No injuries have been reported.

Children's furniture stores nationwide sold the product. Consumers should move the mattress support to the lower position if their child can sit or stand up in the crib. Details: by phone at 888-589-0088; by Web at http://www.songlinfurniture.com or http://www.cpsc.gov.
