Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The purpose of a smoke alarm is to alert you to a fire in your home.Thankfully I have never been able to test this unit, and I hope I never have the chance.So I'll just review the other reasons I bought this product.
I bought two of these units to replace older Kiddie model 1275 units that were malfunctioning and going off regularly for false alarms.My main concern was compatibility since I have 10 units in my house and did not want to replace them all.These new units used the same wiring, connectors, and mounting frames as the old units which was perfect -- installation took less than a minute per unit.The new units work with the old units perfectly -- pushing the test button on the new ones set off all the alarms in the house, just as they should.
I did have some hesitation about buying new Kiddie units since the old Kiddie units were malfunctioning.(To be fair, only one was malfunctioning, but I was tired of messing with troubleshooting and decided to replace the last two options.)However, only 1 in 10 of my existing units was malfunctioning, and they are 6 years old (out of a reported 10 year lifetime).The smoke alarms were installed when I bought the house, so I can't be sure the failing unit was not dropped or otherwise abused before installation.So far the new units have not produced any false alarms and are working well.
