Colsen Fire Pits LLC is recalling approximately 89,500 Colsen-branded indoor/outdoor tabletop fire pits because the liquid alcohol fuel can cause "flame jetting" or flash fires. There have been 31 reported incidents of flames escaping the concrete containers, resulting in 19 burn injuries. Two of these incidents caused third-degree burns over more than 40% of the victims' bodies, and others required surgery and skin grafts. Consumers should immediately stop using these fire pits and dispose of them, as the manufacturer is unable to offer a refund or replacement.
Liquid alcohol fuel produces flames that can be invisible. During refilling or use, fire can flash back into the fuel container and suddenly propel burning alcohol onto nearby people, causing life-altering burns in less than one second. Alcohol can also leak or spill from the concrete reservoir, creating rapidly spreading flash fires.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled fire pits and dispose of them. Do NOT resell or donate them. It is a violation of federal law to sell or distribute recalled products. The firm stopped selling Colsen-branded fire pits less than one year after it acquired the product business and does not have the financial resources to offer a remedy to consumers.
Includes all seven models of concrete fire pits. All units sold with a branded 'Colsen' flame extinguisher.
