What was recalled

Hill-Rom Bariatric Power Recliner, Product Model # P9096 Hill-Roms 660 lb Powered Bariatric Recliner was created to provide an aesthetically pleasing design that will enhance the overall experience for the bariatric patient. Using spring box construction and an exceptionally smooth mechanism, the patient is able to move into a reclined position with little effort and infinite positions up to 38 degrees. An independent footrest enables patients to be in a fully seated position with their feet up for added comfort.
