The American Camper® Compact Butane Stoves
Published November 18, 2025 · Recall initiated: October 2, 2000
What's the hazard
These camper stoves could have been shipped with butane already in the fuel compartment, posing a fire and burn hazard. Also, because of a possible problem with the fuel control mechanism, the stoves could flare up or catch fire when operated.
What to do
Consumers should stop using these stoves immediately, and call Zebco to arrange to have their stove picked up. Consumers returning their stoves will receive a $25 refund.
