Lutron Electronics Recalls Roman Shades Due to Strangulation Hazard

What was recalled

This recall involves hobbled-style, motorized or manual, custom-made Roman shades. They were made out of fabric mounted on a metal frame, manufactured between December 17, 2009 and July 23, 2015. Each shade has two to six vertical mesh lift bands that are 8 inches wide, secured by lift band clamps at the bottom of the shade, and a 1-inch wide vertical hobble tape running the length of the shade.

Consumers should contact Lutron Electronics if the label cannot be located.
