Liquid-fuel tabletop fire pits ask users to pour alcohol or another liquid fuel into an open container and light it there. CPSC warns that igniting the pooled fuel creates an uncontrollable pool fire. It can also cause flame jetting.
The reported harm is serious burn injury. CPSC warns that the fuels can cause third-degree burns, and it reports deaths linked to these products. Those statements cover the product category and other brands, not Quosio.
No lawsuit, MDL, CPSC recall or CPSC warning naming Quosio tabletop fire pits has been found. This page explains what regulators have reported, who may be affected and what evidence to keep.
Latest Quosio Fire Pit Lawsuit Updates
August 13, 2026: CPSC Recalls Brookstone-Branded Tabletop Fire Pits
CPSC announced Recall No. 26-687 of about 48,700 Brookstone-branded tabletop fire pits, models BSFIREPIT01, BSFIREPIT02 and BSFIREPIT03 [1]. Southern Telecom Inc. of Brooklyn, New York, imported them.
Southern Telecom received two reports of flame jetting and flames escaping the concrete container. Two injuries included second-degree and third-degree burns. The remedy is a refund. This recall concerns another brand, not Quosio.
July 16, 2026: CPSC Warns Consumers to Stop Using Houswise Fire Pits
CPSC issued Warning No. 26-615, telling consumers to stop using Houswise Tabletop Fire Pits immediately [2]. It cited more than two dozen reports resulting in seven injuries, including third-degree burns.
The warning cited flame jetting and fire hazards. The manufacturer, Furmia LLC, has not agreed to recall these fire pits or offer a remedy to consumers. The fire pits have been sold since March 2023.
May 7, 2026: CPSC Warns Consumers to Stop Using Northlight Fireplaces
CPSC warned consumers to stop using Northlight Bio Ethanol Portable Tabletop Fireplaces immediately in Product Safety Warning No. 26-473 [3]. The retailer has not agreed to a recall.
The round, square or rectangular fireplaces have a white, silver or black base and were sold online for about $35 to $90. They were made in China, and item numbers such as IF91990 appear on the packaging.
April 2, 2026: CPSC Warns Consumers to Stop Using Rozato Fire Pits
CPSC issued Product Safety Warning No. 26-364, telling consumers to stop using Rozato Tabletop Fire Pits immediately [4]. The rectangular or round fire pits were sold online from 2022 to present for about $15 to $70.
CPSC linked these fire pits to one death and multiple burn injuries. Rozato, the retailer of the fire pits, has not agreed to recall them. The warning pointed to flame jetting and fire hazards.
September 18, 2025: CPSC Announces the Five Below Fire Pit Recall
CPSC announced Recall No. 25-467 of about 66,000 Five Below-branded tabletop fire pits [5]. Alcohol fuel can splash or leak from the reservoir during use or ignition, causing a flash fire.
Five Below received one report of flames escaping and no injuries were reported. The two models have a smooth black base or a beveled gray base. The remedy is a refund.
December 19, 2024: CPSC Issues a Consumer Alert on Liquid-Burning Fire Pits
CPSC issued a Consumer Alert, Warning No. 25-074, urging consumers not to buy or use fire pits meant to burn pooled alcohol or other liquid fuel [6]. It tied these products to deaths and burn injuries since 2019.
The alert covers the whole category and names no brand as the target. CPSC also asked sellers to stop selling these products.
December 19, 2024: CPSC Warns Consumers About FLIKRFIRE Fireplaces
CPSC issued Warning No. 25-073, urging consumers to stop using FLIKRFIRE Tabletop Fireplaces [7]. Flame jetting contributed to the June 2024 death of an elderly couple who were seriously burned.
A third person tried to refill a FLIKRFIRE that appeared extinguished. At least three other incidents caused third or fourth degree burns. The manufacturer is no longer in business and has not agreed to provide a recall remedy.
October 17, 2024: CPSC Announces the Colsen Fire Pit Recall
CPSC announced Recall No. 25-015 of about 89,500 Colsen-branded fire pits made by Colsen Fire Pits LLC of Miami, Florida [8]. The firm does not have the financial resources to offer a remedy.
The recall followed 31 reports of flame jetting or escaping flames and 19 burn injuries. The fire pits come in seven models, 5 to 18 inches wide. Consumers were told to stop using and dispose of them.
Who May Be Affected?
You may be affected if you poured liquid fuel into a tabletop fire pit’s open container and lit it there. Examples of such fuels include rubbing alcohol, ethanol and bioethanol.
You may also be affected if you refilled a fire pit while any flame was present, even a small one. CPSC says flames and burning liquid can reach bystanders as well as the person using the fire pit.
Retail listings show a tabletop fire pit sold under the Quosio brand name, with no maker or importer named. Whether you have a legal claim depends on your own facts, and only an individual legal review can say.
Reported Injuries or Damages
The figures below are CPSC reports about the category and other brands. They are not complaint allegations or court findings. Reports do not prove that a fire pit caused every incident.
CPSC’s Consumer Alert of December 19, 2024 covers liquid-fuel fire pits. It reported that they have been associated with two deaths and at least 60 injuries since 2019.
The Colsen recall notice gives more detail on the harm. Two incidents involved third-degree burns to more than 40% of victims’ bodies.
In the Colsen recall, at least six incidents involved surgery, prolonged medical treatment, burn treatment facility admission, short-term disability, loss of function, physical therapy or permanent disfigurement.
Recall and Regulatory Background
None of the CPSC actions on this page names Quosio. Recalled product details are on the tabletop fire pit recall page.
A recall or warning does not prove liability. The JPML’s Pending MDL Dockets report, dated September 1, 2026, shows no MDL for tabletop fire pits [9].
Evidence to Preserve
Keep these items from the accident and from the purchase, because they show what happened and which product was involved:
- The fire pit itself, kept safely out of use
- Its packaging and instructions
- The order confirmation or receipt
- The listing page that shows the brand
- The fuel container and the label on it
- Photographs of the injuries and of the scene of the accident
- Medical records and bills for treatment of the injuries
- The names of anyone who saw the accident
CPSC urges consumers to stop using liquid-burning fire pits. You can report a dangerous product or an injury on SaferProducts.gov.
Filing Deadlines
Filing deadlines for injury claims come from state law. They depend on where you live and on when the injury happened.
A missed deadline can end a claim, even when the facts are strong. If you were burned by a tabletop fire pit, speak with a lawyer promptly to learn which deadline applies to you.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is There a Quosio Fire Pit Lawsuit or MDL?
No Quosio fire pit lawsuit or MDL has been found. The only MDLs with fire in their names cover a Chrysler Pacifica recall, firefighter turnout gear and fire apparatus antitrust claims, and none involves tabletop fire pits.
What Else Are Liquid-Burning Fire Pits Called?
Liquid-burning fire pits are also sold as tabletop fire pits, fire pots, miniature fireplaces or portable fires for indoor use, according to CPSC. CPSC’s alert covers products sold under any of these names.
What Is Flame Jetting?
Flame jetting can occur when a liquid-burning fire pit is refilled while any flame is present, CPSC says. A small flame can be hard to see, yet it can ignite alcohol or other liquid fuel as it is poured and cause an explosion.
What Safety Standard Do Pour-and-Ignite Fire Pits Violate?
Pour-and-ignite fire pits violate voluntary safety standard ASTM F3363-19, according to CPSC. The standard is designed to prevent pool fires, where flames burn along pooled or spilled flammable liquids. It also targets flame jetting, where flames erupt from containers of liquid fuel.
What Does the Research Say About Fire Pit Burns?
On fire pit burns, CPSC’s alert reports that liquid fuels burn with flame temperatures over 1,600°F and can cause third degree burns in less than one second. This is a regulator statement about the product category and is not a medical study.
What Is a Pool Fire in a Fire Pit?
A pool fire in a fire pit starts when liquid fuel is lit in an open container. CPSC says the pooled liquid can suddenly produce larger, hotter flames that spread beyond the fire pit.
