No one hurt Made Oct 12, 2026, sent to the company Oct 16, 2026, published by CPSC Oct 30, 2026
The product, in the report: Master Forge F500218
I have/had a MasterForge F500218 Pellet Stove, at some point during the night on 3/17/2026, during normal operation the auger jammed (even after following manufacturer cleaning and maintenance procedures) causing the pellet stove fire to spread into the hopper. The fire in the hopper caused an intense whole house smoke out event, melted the control board and required being put out with 2 10lb fire extinguishers.

The product, in the report: Master Forge 800-sq ft Pellet Stove with 30-lb Hopper (EPA Approved) Item #4976270 | Model #F500218
Our pellet stove filled our first floor with smoke very quickly. The fire moved into the hopper instead of remaining contained in the burn pot. If we had gone to bed instead of catching it and using a fire extinguisher, the house would have surely caught on fire.
