Risk of Strangulation Prompts Recall to Repair Roman Shades by Lutron Electronics
March 3, 2010 · Filed Under Recalls
Strangulations can occur when a child places his/her neck between the exposed inner cord and the fabric on the backside of the blind or when a child pulls the cord out and wraps it around his/her neck. Also, in manual Roman shades, strangulations can also occur if the shade’s looped bead chain is not attached to the wall or to the floor and a child’s neck becomes entangled on the free-standing loop.
