WEYLAND Outdoors sells tabletop fire pits that burn poured isopropyl or denatured alcohol. The Consumer Product Safety Commission has linked that pour-and-ignite design to sudden pool-fire flare-ups. The same design causes explosive flame jetting during refueling.
No lawsuit, class action, or multidistrict litigation has been filed against WEYLAND Outdoors. No CPSC recall or warning names a Weyland fire pit. Several other brands using the same fuel system have been recalled or warned instead.
Someone burned while using or refilling a Weyland fire pit may still have an individual product-liability claim worth a lawyer’s review. That claim would rest on the hazard CPSC has already documented across this fire pit category.
Latest WEYLAND Fire Pit Lawsuit Updates
August 13, 2026: CPSC Recalls Brookstone-Branded Fire Pits
CPSC recalled about 48,700 Brookstone-branded tabletop fire pits, imported by Southern Telecom Inc. [1]. The recall followed two reports of flame jetting that caused second- and third-degree burns.
The agency offered a refund remedy for Brookstone units. The action names Brookstone, not Weyland. It shows CPSC is still pursuing brands that use this same alcohol pour-and-ignite fuel system across the tabletop fire pit market.
December 19, 2024: CPSC Warns the Whole Fire Pit Category
CPSC issued a category-wide Consumer Alert telling consumers to stop using alcohol- or other liquid-burning fire pits [2]. Those fire pits violate voluntary safety standard ASTM F3363-19.
The agency reported two deaths and at least 60 injuries linked to this fuel design since 2019. That finding first drew wider legal and regulatory attention to brands like Weyland that use the same pour-and-ignite method.
What Is a Liquid-Fuel Tabletop Fire Pit?
A liquid-fuel tabletop fire pit is a small bowl the user fills with fuel. They pour in isopropyl alcohol, ethanol, or a similar liquid, then ignite it where it pools, per CPSC’s FLIKRFIRE warning [3].
CPSC has found this pour-and-ignite design violates the voluntary ASTM F3363-19 standard. That standard exists to prevent pool fires, where flames spread across the pooled fuel. It also targets flame jetting, an explosion when fuel is added near any flame.
Who May Be Affected?
Owners of WEYLAND Outdoors’ Campfire, Log, Rope, Skull, and Stone tabletop designs who were burned using or refilling one may be affected. Those designs use the same pour-and-ignite fuel system CPSC has linked to burn hazards in other brands.
This also includes anyone burned by another brand’s tabletop or portable fire pit that burns poured liquid fuel in an open bowl.
The flame can suddenly spread across the pooled fuel, known as a pool fire, or jet out while the pit is being refueled.
A burn that happened within seconds of adding fuel near any existing flame matches the flame-jetting pattern CPSC has documented.
Second- to third-degree burns over large areas of the body are the injuries CPSC has documented in this fire pit category.
No attorney investigation or recall currently names Weyland, so anyone hurt by a Weyland fire pit still needs an individual legal review to learn whether a claim is worth pursuing.
Reported Injuries or Damages
No incident reports naming a Weyland fire pit have been reported. The same design has produced well-documented injuries under other brands.
CPSC’s Colsen recall counted 31 reports of flame jetting or flames escaping the fire pit [4]. That recall linked 19 burn injuries, two of them third-degree burns over more than 40 percent of the victim’s body.
CPSC’s warning on Rozato tabletop fire pits found fuel in this category burns at temperatures above 1,600 degrees Fahrenheit [5]. It can cause third-degree burns in under one second, faster than many people can react to a flare-up.
At least six of the Colsen incidents required surgery, burn-unit admission, or left the person with a lasting disability or disfigurement. Colsen’s own injury reports show the severity CPSC has linked to this fuel design.
Recall and Regulatory Background
CPSC has recalled or warned about several tabletop fire pit brands for this same pool-fire and flame-jetting hazard, including Colsen and Brookstone. It also warned Houswise buyers in July 2026 to stop using their fire pits immediately [6].
None of these actions names Weyland. For a fuller look at the category’s recalls and warnings, see our alcohol-burning fire pit lawsuits page.
Evidence to Preserve
Keep the following evidence if you were burned by a Weyland fire pit, in case a lawyer needs to review a claim:
- The fire pit itself, its fuel container or bottle, and the extinguisher that came with it, since these show the exact product involved.
- Any fuel left in the container, along with its original packaging or label, which can show what brand of alcohol was used.
- Photographs or video of the flare-up, the burns, and where the fire pit was located, taken as soon as it is safe.
- The purchase receipt, order confirmation, or product listing that shows when and where the fire pit was bought, including the price paid.
- Medical records and photographs documenting the injury, the treatment received, and any follow-up care or scarring that developed in the weeks afterward.
- Any messages, emails, or reviews exchanged with the seller or manufacturer about the fire pit, the fuel, or the injury itself.
Filing Deadlines
Every state sets its own deadline, called a statute of limitations. It applies to filing a product-liability or personal-injury claim over a burn like this.
That deadline depends on where the injured person lives and when the burn happened. Some states start the clock at diagnosis rather than the date of the accident.
Missing it can end an otherwise strong claim, so anyone hurt by a fire pit should have a lawyer check the timing promptly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Has a Weyland Fire Pit Been Recalled?
No, a Weyland fire pit has not been recalled. CPSC has not named Weyland or WEYLAND Outdoors in any recall or warning as of September 2026. The brand’s $10-$25 tabletop pits do use the same pour-and-ignite alcohol design CPSC flagged in the Colsen and Brookstone recalls.
Can I File a Weyland Fire Pit Lawsuit If I Was Burned?
Yes, you can file a Weyland fire pit lawsuit if you were burned by one. No certified class action or MDL currently covers this brand. A lawyer would review your burn, the product, and the timing of a claim before filing anything.
What Fuel Do Weyland Fire Pits Use?
Weyland fire pits burn isopropyl or denatured alcohol poured into a stainless-steel fuel container. That is the same fuel type CPSC has linked to pool fires and flame jetting in other tabletop brands. Each Weyland pit ships with roasting sticks and a fire extinguisher.
What Is Flame Jetting?
Flame jetting is an explosion when fuel is poured into a fire pit while any flame is present. CPSC has linked that same fuel-refill hazard to Weyland’s pour-and-ignite design. CPSC tied one fatal case to a fire pit that looked extinguished, refilled by a third person, killing an elderly couple.
What Does the Research Say About Fire Pit Burn Injuries?
CPSC’s research on fire pit burn injuries in this category, the same pour-and-ignite design Weyland’s tabletop pits use, includes its April 2026 Rozato warning. That warning tied the design to one death and multiple burn injuries, separate from the two-deaths-since-2019 figure in CPSC’s category-wide alert.
What Should I Do If My Fire Pit Flares up or Jets Flame?
If a Weyland fire pit flares up or jets flame, the same pour-and-ignite hazard CPSC has flagged, back away immediately. Never try to smother or refill it while any flame is visible. Get medical care right away for any burn, even one that looks minor at first.
Does an Attorney Investigation Mean a Weyland Fire Pit Is Defective?
No, an attorney investigation does not mean a Weyland fire pit is defective. A lawyer conducting an investigation is only gathering information. That is different from a court judgment, a certified class action, a settlement, or a CPSC recall finding a product unsafe.
