I have a Storkcraft baby crib model number 704873, the problem is one of the top recieving guide brackets for the non-sliding back side of the crib is broke. I need to find a replacement. Can you point me in the right direction?? Help please!

First I would be super careful with this crib as it was part of a recall in 2011. The model number is 04550-97C. Please read here www.babycafe.com/stork-craft-recalls-2-1-million-drop-side-cribs/ get the 'recall kit' for it to lock in the drop side.
Good luck and hope this helps!

It's for the brackets. I had to find a site that led me to storkcraft recalls and then it let me choose brackets, then I filled out a short form and I recieved them in a week and a half. Hope this helps.

You have to unscrew the brackets from the front and back or sometimes they are on the sides of the crib and then lower the base. Then you will have to screw them back in

Checking the model number at the Storkcraft website is not possible at the moment due to overwhelming traffic. Check the manufacturing date and compare it to the information below to assess whether your crib might be involved. This recall involves Stork Craft drop-side cribs and Stork Craft drop-side cribs with the Fisher- Price logo. This recall does not involve any cribs that do not have a drop-side. This recall does

trigger and one-hand-system drop-side hardware.

Step 1 Register your baby crib as soon as you bring it home so you will receive product recalls automatically. Usually manufacturers ask you to register to validate warranty information but this will also register you to receive product recalls.

Step 2 Check the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission website regularly for recall information. This is a dependable resource that many consumers are not aware of.

Step 3 Visit your crib manufacturer's website occasionally and type in your crib name or number under their search option.

Step 4 Monitor the recall website www.recalls.gov that constantly updates recall information on all consumer products including baby cribs.

Step 5 Stay up to date with current news reports and printed media outlets. They are often the first to announce safety recalls and possible product issues.

You pull up and push in with you knee on the lower part at the same time.

I would contact the manufacturer and they should have replacement parts. If it is a storkcraft, then go to Storkcraft.com and go to their parts page.

Hi, replacement parts can be found on amazon, click here: Amazon com Storkcraft Baby crib parts and take a look. Wish you best of luck. Cheers

There is currently a voluntary recall on this very part. Visit www.storkcraft.com and click on recall. If your crib was manufactured between 2001 and 2008, fill out the form and you can get a free bracket replacement kit. You will need to look at the sticker on the base under the mattress (where the instructions are usually glued). Write down the model number, date of manufacture, etc. and fill out the form. I'm not certain whether the form submission will allow for a UK address, but I would think if it doesn't you could phone customer service and tell them you'd like the free bracket kit being offered because of the recall.
