Sterno Recalls Portable Butane Stoves Due to Fire and Burn Hazards
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
The stove's "on-off" valve can fail to close completely when turned to the "off" position, causing butane to leak from the stove. This poses a fire and burn hazard to consumers.
What to do
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled portable butane stoves and contact Sterno for instructions to return the units to Sterno for a free replacement stove. Do not return the stoves to the place of purchase.
