crib, car seat safety standards and Recall List
It is the goal of Just Between Friends to offer only the best items at all of our consignment sales events. We do not intend to sell recalled or unsafe items. Our number one goal is the safety and security of our shoppers/customers. It is the responsibility of our consignors to make sure all of their products offered for sale meet the required safety standards.

In light of the alarming number of recent toy and product recalls, we at Just Between Friends, find it necessary to help parents become better informed about children's product safety. We also expect our consignors to use these lists before consigning any of their items, therefore, insuring none of their items offered for sale have been recalled. Below you will find links to important children's product safety websites. We will update the recall lists before every event season. We welcome any additional recall information that you may have.

Crib, Car Seat Safety Standards and Recall List


Crib Slat width: Cribs will be accepted if the space between the slats is no more than 2-3/8 inches apart to prevent infants from getting their head stuck between them. Cribs manufactured after 1974 must meet this and other strict safety standards.
Cribs with corner posts: The corner posts should be the same height as the end panels or less than 1/16 of an inch higher than the end panels.
Cribs with Cut outs: No cut-out areas on the headboard or footboard so a baby's head cannot get trapped.
Crib Top Rails: The top rails of crib sides, in their raised position, should be at least 26 inches above the top of the mattress support at its lowest position.


Car seat/stroller combos cannot be more than 5 years old. 

In order to ensure that the car seat/stroller combos being sold at the sale meet high standards please fill out our car seat information checklist and waiver before bringing your car seat to the sale.

We will inspect and pull all recalled or unacceptable car seats, so please follow the check list carefully before bringing it to the sale.
