RE: A dangerous exploding stove – and how my warning about it got me my first ever online ban
Gosh only read this now, thank goodness no one was injured but like you I'm shocked at the responses! Not everyone reads instructions and manufacturers should ensure products like this especially should have better safety features! I'm tweeting this and posting to Facebook! My niece's son was badly burnt during a barbeque, I think he was 7 at the time; his dad asked him to fetch fire lighters but instead he took a bottle of some flammable liquid and threw it on the coals with disastrous effects, the dad was busy at the time and did not see what he came back with. That was a freak accident but a warning to parents to leave stuff like that out of children's reach, I posted about it a long while ago.
The reaction you got is unbelievable, possibly some were agents selling that very product, who knows!

Thanks @lizelle. Yes, you would think from the responses that they were from agents selling these products. But sadly I think it was just a bunch of armchair warriors grasping at an opportunity to feel superior. I'm really glad that you've been helping to spread the word about these dangerous products.
That's horrific about your niece's son. Barbecues can be so dangerous.
It's when people use stuff they're not supposed to use for starting the fire that makes it dangerous. I also wondered if they were agents but I'm sure you're right. !tip .20
Thanks so much for the tip @lizelle!

Update: I've just read your post about the barbeque accident. I managed to find it quite quickly using the fantastic search tool created by @eonwarped! I'm so glad that the little boy's burns are healing.
Thanks did not see the edit, will check @eonwarped's search tool out! The scars are quite bad still but he doesn't let it faze him, that was a split second and it changed their lives!
It's such a shame that his scars are still bad, but great that he just gets on with things anyway.
The search tool is fantastic. I only found out about it via chat on Discord a while back. More people should know about it!
