The product, in the report: Electric Fireplace Insert
The consumer stated that the while the fireplace insert was plugged in (not sure how long) it started to emit sparks. There was an odor of something burning and then it was emitting smoke , which engulfed the room. He immediately unplug the unit and ventilated the room. He and his family had to go outside because of the strong odor for awhile.
1/19/13 The unit was returned to the retailer but he was advised to call the agency because there had been a recall on it. The manufacturer was not contacted as yet. The caller feels that the fireplace insert is a fire hazard and should be reported.
