You have probably heard about how the peanut recall affected many food products including Clif bars, but now JetBoil is doing a voluntary recall of some of their products too.
Jetboil has utilized three different gas valves (the “Aâ€, “B†and “C†style valves) in the production of its Personal Cooking System (PCS) andGroup Cooking System (GCS). PCS and GCS units utilizing the B style valve were shipped to US retailers between July 10 and September 9, 2008, and sold through retail since July 10, 2008.
My boyfriend recently bought a JetBoil and it was on the recall list. Fortunately, even though I borrowed it for my past two trips to Joshua Tree (intending to do a review on it), I ended up not using it on either trip because folks just kept offering me their hot water.
Sounds like generosity and chance may have saved me some grief:
We have determined independently to undertake this process after receiving reports and returned units from a very limited number of end users who have experienced leaking gas and subsequent ignition of the gas leak. No injuries or property damage have been reported by these users.
