The Consumer Product Safety Commission is expected to announce one of the largest crib recalls in history on Tuesday.

KVUE spoke with Scott Wolfson of the U.S Consumer Product Safety Commission. He said there will be a “significant crib recall announced tomorrow. There is also a larger effort by CPSC to put in mandatory rules to make all cribs safer."

The recall affects cribs with drop-down sides.

It is not known which specific models are subject to recall, but it would not be the first time cribs have been recalled because of drop-down side dangers.

Nearly five million cribs, bassinets and play yards have been recalled over the past two years, and the CPSC has discussed banning drop-down sides altogether.

Here are the most recent drop down crib recalls:

Simplicity Crib recall

Delta Crib recall
