The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

    I keep coming across an advertisement that seems to me to be extremely unsafe.

  2. Hospital admission

    The product, in the report: The product is advertised as a clean safe indoor outdoor fire pit Dimensions: 4”D x 15”W x 5”H

    Im writing today regarding a serious safety concern, a product called Houswise portable indoor/outdoor fire pit?

    I noticed there was a large civil case against [REDACTED], and this product appears identical, though it is now being advertised on [REDACTED] and several other social media outlets under the Houswise name: [REDACTED]

    Unfortunately, my husband suffered severe burns from this product. Although the fire appeared to be out, when I added additional fuel it exploded. He has been hospitalized and required skin grafts. He had just started a new job and doesnt have sick time or benefits. This has been extremely painful physically, emotionally, mentally and financially.

    We have contacted a lawyer, who mentioned that the product was supposed to have been pulled last year and may now be marketed under this new name. Despite this, I continue to receive promotional emails from the company.
