Jetboil Recalls Outdoor Stoves

February 11, 2009
Jetboil is recalling about 15,000 outdoor stoves. A tight valve attached to the stove’s fuel source can allow gas to leak, posing a fire hazard.

Jetboil has received five reports of fires resulting from leaking fuel. No injuries have been reported.

This recall involves personal and group cooking stoves often used during outdoor camping. The recalled models include: Personal Cooking Systems in black (PBL075-BLK-(PCS) and camo (PBL075-CAMO-(PCS), Backcountry Gourmet Set (BDLFRY), Personal Cooking System with Companion Cup (BDL001), Personal Cooking System with Pot Support & Stabilizer (BDL002), Personal Cooking System with Coffee Press (BDL003), and Personal Cooking System Java Kit (BDLJAVA) and Group Cooking System (GCS150).

The stoves were sold at specialty outdoor and general sporting goods stores nationwide and on the Internet from July 2008 through November 2008 for between $100 and $130. They were made in the United States.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled product and contact Jetboil for a repair or replacement.

For additional information, contact Jetboil toll-free at (866) 611-9905 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit the firm’s Web site at www.jetboil.com.
