The recalled products do not meet the labelling requirements for consumer chemical products sold with the intention of being filled with a hazardous chemical product, as required by the Consumer Chemicals and Containers Regulations, 2001, under the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act. The portable firepots also do not have the required labelling according to the ASTM F3363-19 Standard Specification for Unvented Liquid/Gel Fuel-Burning Portable Devices. These labelling requirements are necessary to inform consumers about fire or burn hazards, including flame jetting.
Flame jetting occurs when fuel vapours around a poured fuel stream ignite when a user refuels a portable fire product that is still burning, possibly when a flame is not readily visible. It can also occur when the flame is extinguished but the device is still hot. This can result in a burst of flaming fuel being rapidly expelled out of the container and travelling a distance dangerous to the user and bystanders. Flame jetting occurs very quickly, so the user and/or bystanders are unable to react quickly enough to move away from an incoming flame jet. Please visit this page for more information on flame jetting and portable products that use pourable alcohol-based fuels.
The lack of appropriate labelling and hazard information could contribute to a flame jetting incident and/or unintentional exposure to the product and lead to serious illness, injury or death.
As of August 12, 2025, the company has received no reports of incidents or injuries in Canada.

Health Canada's sampling and evaluation program has determined that the black coatings applied to the legs and metal base of Lars Counter Wood Top table and Lars Counter Chairs contain lead in excess of the allowable limit established by the Surface Coatings Materials Regulations.
Lead is toxic if ingested, especially to children. A range of serious health effects have been associated with exposure to lead including anemia, vomiting, diarrhea, serious brain injury, convulsions, coma, as well as effects related to the liver, kidneys, heart and immune system. In extreme cases, there have been deaths. Since lead builds up in the body, ongoing exposure to even very small amounts of lead can result in large amounts of lead being present in the body.
For more information on the risks and symptoms, visit the Government of Canada's website pages Reduce your exposure to lead and Lead Information Package - Some Commonly Asked Questions About Lead and Human Health.
As of August 15, 2025, the company has received no reports of incidents or injuries in Canada.
