The US Consumer Product Safety Commission recently informed of a recall to the Agio International’s “Garden Treasures” Outdoor Steel Dome Fireplaces.

Go to the CPSC website to verify manufacturer’s item code and to review specific instructions concerning the recall. These are pretty popular products—I just saw two such fireplaces outside a couple beach houses on the coast of NH. Let’s hope the owners read this blog…
