Snow Peak Takibi Fireplace Propane Inserts and Lava Rocks

Snow Peak USA, Inc., of Portland, Oregon, is recalling its Takibi propane inserts and lava rocks for fireplaces. The lava rocks can ignite and explode when heated in the propane insert, posing a risk of serious injury or death from burn and fire hazards. The firm has received one report of lava rocks exploding with one report of minor property damage; no injuries have been reported. The recall involves about 100 units.

The recalled propane inserts and lava rocks are accessories that allow Snow Peak's Pack & Carry Fireplace L (ST-032) and XL (ST-034) to operate on propane fuel instead of wood or charcoal. The propane insert includes a detachable hose with a gas flow regulator that controls the flame intensity with a twist of a knob. The product also includes lava rocks.

Model number ST-332-US can be found on the product packaging and in the user manual. The products, made in China, were sold online at Snowpeak.com from July 2026 for about $350.

Consumers should stop using the propane insert and lava rocks immediately and contact Snow Peak for a full refund. For replacement lava rocks only, consumers can keep the propane inserts, and the firm will ship replacement lava rocks. Consumers should dispose of the recalled lava rocks in accordance with local and state ordinances and not use the inserts until replacement lava rocks are received.
