TqsMsp and the Tabletop Fire Pit Category

TqsMsp operates an Amazon storefront selling fire pits and outdoor fireplaces, including alcohol-burning tabletop models marketed for both indoor and outdoor use. Like all products in this category, TqsMsp’s fire pits burn liquid alcohol fuel — isopropyl, ethanol, or bioethanol — in an open container that is ignited in the same location, the design the CPSC has identified as the root cause of every serious injury in this product category.

Amazon has become the primary retail channel for hundreds of tabletop fire pit brands, many operating under obscure storefront names with no established retail presence. TqsMsp is among the brands in this space that attorneys are actively reviewing as part of the 2026 nationwide burn injury investigation.

Why These Products Are So Dangerous

Alcohol fuels burn at temperatures exceeding 1,600°F with a flame that is nearly colorless and nearly invisible — particularly in ambient indoor or outdoor lighting [1]. A user who believes the fire has gone out may pour fresh fuel into a bowl that still contains a residual, invisible flame — triggering a flame jetting explosion that propels burning liquid outward onto anyone nearby in under one second.

That flame jetting hazard is not unique to any specific brand or model — it is inherent in every product that requires pouring liquid alcohol into an open container and igniting it in the same location. The CPSC has stated clearly that these products violate voluntary safety standard ASTM F3363-19, which was specifically designed to prevent pool fires and flame jetting events.

Federal Warnings and Related Recalls

In December 2024, the CPSC issued a sweeping consumer alert declaring all alcohol-burning tabletop fire pits “extremely dangerous” and urging all consumers to stop using them and all sellers to stop selling them. In July 2026, the CPSC issued a specific warning against Houswise Tabletop Fire Pits after seven burn injuries — including third-degree burns — were reported and the manufacturer refused to recall the product [2].

Lawsuits have been filed across the country against manufacturers, importers, and online platforms that continued selling these products after federal warnings. Under product liability law, Amazon sellers who list and sell defective products can face liability alongside the manufacturer — regardless of whether the seller designed or manufactured the product.

Can I File a Lawsuit?

Consumers who were burned while using a TqsMsp tabletop fire pit — whether from a pool fire, a flame jetting explosion, or a refueling incident — may have significant legal options against the seller and the platform. Contact an attorney promptly to have your case evaluated.
