2 in a row - both deadDecember 3, 2008 My first unit did nothing but squeal when I inserted the batteries - no display, no lights. OK, a bad unit. Unfortunately I had the same experience after returning the first and getting a second one. With all the good reviews, I'm sure Kiddie makes working alarms, but its the last Kiddie I'll buy.
Great price !November 23, 2008 I purchase mt carbon monoxide detecter after the landlord converted to gas heat and for the price with the digital read out battery operated. Ive no complaints and Im impressed would highly recommend this item
May be cheaper at Home Depot...November 18, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Great product. It has a "kickstand" so it can be placed on a table or screws so it can be hung on the wall. The digital display is recommended for CO testers. You can change batteries without removing the tester from the wall. A leading consumer testing magazine recommended this one.
I often buy from Amazon because it is easy and usually cheaper. However, I found this item at The Home Depot (reg. 39.99) on clearance for 19.99.
Fine, better-than-basic CO alarmNovember 11, 2008 This is a good, high-quality device, with a clear display. The display is a little smaller and contains a little less than the earlier version of this same detector (of which I own two), which is the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars. But it works well, as best I could test it (using the vent from my gas oven), with a clear, easy-to-read display. The ability to change batteries without dismounting it is a plus. I bought this model (earlier and current versions) because it was highly rated and a good buy according to Consumer Reports, and it lives up to that review.
Could not get it to shut offOctober 31, 2008 The alarm went off as soon as the batteries were installed. After trying all suggestions in the manual for turning off the alarm, I removed the batteries and returned the product.
