The product, in the report: AmazonBasics Commercial, Propane 46,000 BTU, Outdoor Patio Heater with Wheels, Havana Bronze https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LILH3V4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I had purchased a propane patio heater and assembled it yesterday, Nov 9 2020. The product is AmazonBasics Commercial, Propane 46,000 BTU, Outdoor Patio Heater with Wheels, Havana Bronze. After assembling it I followed the instructions for first lighting. In about 5-10 minutes I noticed that a wire, I think it was the wire from the igniter had caught on fire and was melting. I quickly turned off the heater and turned off the propane tank. I was about to use a fire extinguisher but managed to just blow out the wire once the gas was off. No injuries occurred but this patio heater is extremely dangerous and if I had not been right there could have lead to a much bigger fire.
