Cabela’s Outfitter and Big Horn wood stove tents

Risk: Cabela’s Outfitter and Big Horn tents are recalled due to a smoke inhalation hazard. The tents are designed for the optional use of a wood stove inside. The stove pipe exits the tent through the stove jack ring which provides a seal between the stove pipe and the tent.

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.

As of July 14, 2022 Westfield Outdoor has received 3 reports of the stove jack ring deteriorating due to heat and creating smoke in Canada, and 1 report of smoke inhalation and frostbite related to discontinuing the use of a wood stove while camping.

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.
