What's the Problem?

The potentially defective batteries are installed internally on affected recliners as an optional equipment upgrade, CPSC said. The batteries are rectangular and black in color, and are visible when looking under the upholstery in the rear of the furniture in a black mounting bracket. The top of the batteries are marked with the word ENouvation.

Affected Southern Motion recliners were sold at Rooms To Go, Art Van, Nebraska Furniture Mart, and other furniture stores across the U.S. from January to September 2019 for between $1000 and $2500.

If you purchased a reclining chair that is affected by this recall, you should stop using it immediately and contact Southern Motion for a free in-home repair. This recall began on April 2, 2020.
