The product, in the report: We don’t remember the exact product, but it was definitely Target’s home brand, Project 62 or Threshold. We believe it was probably Project 62. It does not look like the sell this exact model anymore, but they have a black metal fire column branded under Threshold that also has a review of that product doing the same thing and catching fire at the propane tank. After ours caught fire, we looked back at the reviews for our product and we were not the only one that had it catch fire. It was gray with a concrete type finish. It housed the propane tank directly in the column and fit a full size propane tank. It was cylindrical and roughly 3 feet tall maybe. Information I provided was from an [REDACTED] link that I believe is the same item, since I cannot find it on Target’s website anymore.
We bought and used a propane fire pit from Target in Summer of 2020. We had used it maybe two times. I turned on the fire pit and started the flame when the column caught fire at the connection to the propane tank. We were able to turn off the propane and extinguish the fire. Firefighters were called to the house to make sure it was safe. They inspected and placed the blame on a faulty connector on the fire pit. The propane tank and fire pit were both brand new.
