Allstar Marketing Group is recalling about 265,000 Sharper Image Tabletop Fire Pits and Tabletop Infinity Fire Pits, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, which announced the recall on Thursday, November 12, 2026. The company has received four reports of burning fuel escaping from the fire pits during use, resulting in four injuries including third- and fourth-degree burns.

Why it matters

The recall follows serious burn injuries tied to the fire pits, which can allow burning fuel to escape or cause flames to shoot out of containers. Customers who own the products are being told to stop using them immediately and seek a full refund from the company.

The recalled fire pits sold for between $30 and $50 at retailers including Target, Walmart, Home Depot and Lowe's, and online through Amazon and HSN from January 2023 through June 2026. The source does not say whether any units remain unsold or how many have been refunded to date.

The players

Consumer Product Safety Commission

The federal agency responsible for protecting the public from unreasonable risks of injury from consumer products, which announced this recall.

Allstar Marketing Group

The company responsible for marketing and selling the Sharper Image tabletop fire pits subject to the recall.

The details

Allstar is asking customers to stop using the fire pits, register online, write "RECALLED - DO NOT USE" on the unit with a permanent marker, and submit three pictures. After registration is confirmed, owners must dispose of remaining fuel under local hazardous-waste rules and discard the fire pit for a full refund.

Timeline

  1. January 2023: Online sales of the fire pits began through Amazon and HSN.

  2. June 2026: Online sales through Amazon and HSN ended.

  3. Thursday, November 12, 2026: The Consumer Product Safety Commission announced the recall.

Roadmap

Recalls of consumer goods such as outdoor and tabletop heating products are routinely handled by the Consumer Product Safety Commission under the Consumer Product Safety Act. This case follows that pattern, with the agency publicizing a manufacturer-led refund and disposal process for a product tied to documented burn injuries.

Owners of the recalled fire pits should stop using them right away and contact Allstar Marketing Group for a full refund. Before discarding the unit, register online, mark it "RECALLED - DO NOT USE" with a permanent marker, submit three photos, and follow local hazardous-waste rules for disposing of any remaining fuel.

The takeaway

Check any tabletop fire pit against recall notices before use, and never operate one indoors or near flammable materials, since burning fuel escape is the failure mode behind these injuries.
