Risk Description
The product poses a risk of burns because the flame may be difficult to see at times, it can flash if more fuel is added to the pot whilst either still alight or warm. Fuel is not provided with this particular product which also increases the risk by lack of instruction and the snuffer is smaller than the well so if consumers poured fuel directly into the pot the snuffer is of no use. Lit fuel can also flare.
