Adjustable mattress bases recalled due to fire hazard

Leggett & Platt of Georgetown, KY has recalled about 25,000 power foundations or adjustable bases manufactured in the United States for use with sleeping mattresses.

According to the company, electrical components in the motor control board of the bases can fail and short, causing overheating and posing a potential fire hazard to consumers. Leggett & Platt has received 29 complaints of overheating in the electronic motor control board located in a housing underneath the deck of the power foundation, but no reports of injuries or property damage.

The recalled mattress foundations and bases were sold through mattress retailers nationwide from March 2008 through October 2011 for between $1700 and $2200.
