China Toys - Crib Recall and Mattel

1 Million Cribs recalled. Not good news for the continuing effort to improve the made in China brand. My guess on this one is it's a design issue. Mattel's apology in my opinion is their way of staying on China's good side. Interesting timeline of the China Safety Scare. Unfortunately this only mentions ones that impacted the US, which did not include the deaths, many of them children in Panama and China due to counterfeit sweeteners used in cough syrup. There was mention in the WSJ how some US based companies are putting big made in USA on their products.
