La-Z-Boy recalls control wands

La-Z-Boy has recalled about 4,000 control wands sold with its Silver Luxury Lift chairs. The wands, which control the chairs’ movements, can overheat, causing a burn hazard.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission posted the recall Jan. 21.

La-Z-Boy had received three reports of the control wands on floor samples becoming warm. No injuries were reported.

Consumers should unplug the chair from the wall outlet and contact the local dealer from whom they purchased the chair, who will schedule a time for a service technician to install a free replacement control wand.

The wands, which were made in China, went with chairs sold between August and November last year.
