About 5,880 Outfitter and Big Horn tents, sold exclusively at Cabela’s and Bass Pro Shops in North America, were recalled.
The tent’s stove jack ring can deteriorate when exposed to high temperatures from contact with a stove pipe and create smoke inside the tent, posing a risk of injury from smoke inhalation.
Westfield Outdoor, the tents manufacturer, received three reports of the stove jack ring deteriorating due to heat and creating smoke and one account of smoke inhalation and frostbite related to discontinuing the use of a wood stove while camping.
The recall involves only the Cabela’s Ultimate Alaknak Outfitter, the Instinct Outfitter and the Big Horn 6P tents manufactured by Westfield Outdoor.
The tent sizes ranged from 10 feet by 10 feet to 13 feet by 27 feet and were sold in green.
The name, model number, date code (HF MMDDYY) providing the place and date of manufacture, and SKU of the tents, are printed on the inside of the tent on the sewn-in warning label.
Consumers should immediately stop using a wood stove inside the tents and contact Westfield Outdoor for a free replacement stove jack ring.
Consumers can remove the old stove jack ring from the tent and install the replacement ring by following the instructions provided with the replacement ring. Westfield Outdoor is contacting all known purchasers directly.
