Dear Freecyclers,
As a freecycler pointed out to me, it was announced today that ALL drop-side
cribs have been considered unsafe and have been banned from sales.
Here's just one article:

Here's an article from the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC)'s website
on why they're dangerous:

With that said, I don't think I'd feel right giving the crib to any of you, in
case anything ever happened to your baby. The mattress is fine, however.
Right now, I have one person who may be interested in picking up the mattress
(has not confirmed yet). I will create a "stand-by" list if that person doesn't
show up.
