According to the CPSP information the company appears to be out of business to some degree and are not providing repair kits.

If you know where you purchased the crib, check to see what their policy is reguarding recalled baby products.

We had purchased ours at walmart almost 8 years ago and were able to return it to another store in a different state for a full refund last summer. They did not need a reciept received, they just needed the manufacturer label on the part that the mattress lies on.

Because ours was older, the customer service clerk did have to work hard to find the crib in their system, but once she did, it was not problem at all.

Toddler conversion on at least some of the cribs is simply to remove the front dropside from the crip (you may want or need to unscreen the dropside tracks to remove the actual side) Then screw the toddler rails to the front side of the crip. There should be pre-drilled holes for the toddler rails, if there are not then you may have the mattress support on backwards.

The Graco Aspen model 8740 3 in 1 crib along with millions of other drop-side cribs has been recalled.

I have a Graco 3 in 1 Aspen Sleep System Model 8740 crib and the transitional bed instructions. I am missing the crib instructions. My crib was not recalled because it has a metal support and not wodden slats.

there is supposed to be a small plastic stay on the front of the lock.my son broke it off on his,what i did was put a small screw in the front of the slide just out of the way,but close enough to catch when the rail is put up i hope this helps email me&
