Product Recall

Decorative rocks are supposed to sit quietly in your fireplace and look rustic. They are not supposed to explode. On October 8, 2026, the Consumer Product Safety Commission announced that Snow Peak is recalling its Takibi propane fireplace inserts and lava rocks after one report of the lava rocks igniting and exploding inside the insert, causing minor property damage.

If you cleaned your grill with an Expert Grill wire brush this summer, you may have added an unexpected ingredient to dinner. On October 1, 2026, the Consumer Product Safety Commission announced that Walmart is recalling about 4.48 million Expert Grill metal wire bristle grill brushes because the little metal bristles can fall off, stick to the grill or cooked food, and be swallowed — an ingestion hazard that can cause serious internal injuries requiring surgery.
