Camp Stoves Sold Exclusively at Dick's Sporting Goods Recalled Due to Burn Hazard

WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in cooperation with the firm named below, today announced a voluntary recall of the following consumer product. Consumers should stop using recalled products immediately unless otherwise instructed.

Name of Product: "Field & Stream" Dual Burner Camp Stoves

Units: About 6,700

Importer: Dick's Sporting Goods, of Pittsburgh, Pa.
