Plain-English summary

Camp Chef is recalling approximately 20,600 portable gas stoves, including models MS40A, MSHP, and MSGG. The recall involves stoves with gas regulators date-coded "1923" through "2030" inclusive. The model number is located on the manufacturer's label on the bottom of the stove, while the gas regulator date code is engraved on the regulator itself.

The recall is due to a fire hazard. An internal part of the gas regulator component can have a sharp edge that wears or tears a hole in the seal, causing gas to leak out of the top of the regulator. Camp Chef has received 26 reports of gas leaking from regulators, but no injuries have been reported.

These stoves were sold at sporting goods stores and Walmart stores nationwide from August 2019 through September 2020 for between $150 and $300 depending on the model. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled stoves and contact Camp Chef at 800-650-2433 or online at www.campchef.com to obtain a free gas regulator replacement kit.
