Save Money: Safety

Has worked flawlessly for the first 1.5 years when connected to an Apple Home Pod. Has stopped working and indicated the need for replacement. Contacted First Alert and they no longer do it. So what is the point of a 10-year guarantee. Replaced by a model without "Home Kit". Terrible warranty support.

Pros
  • Loud siren sounds when extremely dangerous levels of carbon monoxide are detected
Cons
  • Hard to tell

Great little sensor!

Surprisingly small sensor. I bought two and apart from a small connection issue with one (which cleared up as soon as I restarted it) they worked great. They won't change your life, but it's good to know (especially CO2 monitoring). I put one in the kitchen and the other in the hallway next to my kid's bedroom. The LED backlight is also handy for quick reviews and works well with HomeKit.

Pros
  • LED ring shows instantaneous changes in the environment.
Cons
  • High price.

This device is quite expensive for what it does. .

This device is quite expensive for its features. It basically gives you temperature, humidity, and carbon dioxide readings, but it only works if you're connected to the same network as the device. Also, the app is poorly designed, it took forever for the device to connect to the app and then disconnected again after a few days, so I ended up using my Home app on the iPhone to get the readings . Something you can hook up to carbon dioxide and a room thermometer might work just as well as this…

Pros
  • Simple and easy installation. Just plug it in, download the app and monitor your home environment.
Cons
  • Frequency
