Source model text: Coleman Model 9949A folding grill on wheels LP. Incident: I lighted a Coleman gas grill, model 9949A, and when the grill surface (cast iron with a ceramic coating) got hot, the glass/ceramic coating on the grates started flying off the grate up into my face and hit me in the eye! I heard a popping sound as bits of the glass/ceramic glazing continued to literally explode off the surface and fly straight up into the air. My eye was burned so bad that I'm afraid to use those ceramic-covered cast iron grates and I'm hoping Coleman has a plain steel grill replacement for this Model 9949A that's SAFE to use. This grill was very expensive and I was surprised when it injured eye. That glass coating is DANGEROUS, and should be recalled before someone loses their eyesight!

Product: Coleman Coleman Dual-Fuel Model 424 (Camping Stove, Coleman Dual-Fuel Model 424). Incident: Item: Coleman Dual-Fuel Camping Stove, Model 424 Background: This is the second Model 424 stove received directly from Coleman as a replacement for the initially purchased stove, ordered from Amazon on May 3, 2021 delivered on May 5, 2021, that was also defective. Summary of Problem: During a recent camping trip, October 10-16, 2021, the Coleman stove would produce a �puffing� sound that extinguished the burner flame. This would normally occur when the flame was set to the low to medium range. This required constant relighting of the burner. At one point, on the second day, when relighting burner, the entire stove was engulfed in flames, reaching nearly two feet in height. Since this happened when under my camping canopy, I immediately removed the fuel tank, closed the stove lid and, with pot holders, physically tossed the stove away from my camp site. It continued burning until the fuel had completed burned out. Since early in my camping trip, once the stove had cooled, I reinstalled the fuel tank to determine if the stove was still operable. After approximately 10-minutes of operation I noticed that the table it was sitting on was wet with fuel that was leaking from the fuel tank. Obviously, I quickly turned off the burner. What I found was the indentation on the fuel tank, where the generator assembly is attached to the tank, was filled with fuel and spilling over onto the table. Investigating the generator connections, I found that I could tighten the coupling near the fuel knob an additional � turn and the coupling from the long generator tube another � turn. (Labelled
