Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

This recall involves about 18,000 First Generation Paradise Grills Outdoor Kitchens sold between January 2009 and December 2020. Liquid propane gas can build up inside the closed lid and cabinets, which can lead to an explosion when the grill is relit. Paradise Grills has received two reports of these grills exploding, causing severe burn injuries to consumers. The recalled units include several GX models, as well as Tahiti, Fiji, Tropicana, and Aruba models.

Risk

Propane gas can accumulate in the enclosed areas of the kitchen structure or under the lid. When a user attempts to light or relight the grill, this trapped gas can ignite and explode, posing a severe risk of fire and life-altering burn injuries.
