    Made Feb 8, 2020, sent to the company Mar 5, 2020, published by CPSC Mar 26, 2020

    The product, in the report: Packable down coat for women

    My wife was wearing a down coat purchased at LL Bean, she was standing outside at a race event with other spectators around a propane heater when someone exclaimed that her coat was on fire. People standing closer to the same heat source we’re not experiencing this issue so we thought there was a problem with the coat. When I called the store in Cleveland they stated that they knew about the problem and there was nothing they could do about it. I contacted ll bean and they said it was my wife’s fault for standing too close even though others were closer than her and their coats were fine. My concern is that the perception of the buyer which is encouraged by the store might be misguided into a false sense of confidence. When I attempted to address the issue with the company they stated that all man made material catches on fire and again we shouldn’t stand close to a heat source. My concern is that if kids or adults are wearing this material to participate in activities that the company promotes like camping, building campfires, or roasting marshmallows they should be informed that their particular line of coats can catch fire.
