As each report says it, in short words; CPSC’s own words are under each.

The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

  1. Hurt, no treatment

    Made Nov 18, 2017, sent to the company Dec 12, 2017, published by CPSC Jan 5, 2018

    The product, in the report: motorized lift and reclining chair

    Prior to having hip replacemnt surgery, I purchased a lift chair from Costco. It is described as Morris ProLounger Fabric Lift Chair, Slate Blue.

    It is unstable; it tipped over twice with me sitting in it while it was reclining. Once I stabilized myself using my non-surgical leg -- that was okay. The other time I came down hard enough to hurt my recovering leg -- that was not okay.

    Lift chairs are designed for people with infirmities; they should not topple over.
