  1. First aid

    Made May 8, 2023, sent to the company May 11, 2023, published by CPSC Jun 1, 2023

    The product, in the report: Ethan Allen, leather motorized recliner manufactured in Dec 2021.

    My wife and I purchased a motorized recliner from Ethan Allen in Dec. 2021. The recliner is activated by push buttons on the right side of the recliner . The buttons are not located on the inside of the arm, but rather are located on the seating surface.

    On several occasions, my wife had reclined in the chair and was trying to get out of it. She placed her legs in either side of the extended foot rest and accidentally pushed the button to make the recliner to an upright position.

    Her legs became trapped between the footrest and the body of the chair. As it moved into the upright position , the footrest impacted her legs, trapping them and causing broken skin, bruises and extreme pain.

    This happened again when she accidentally dropped her [REDACTED] directly inti the button resulting in the sane this situation as described above.

    The first incident occurred in Jan 2022 and subsequently about three months later.
