🔥 BRK PRC710 Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm with Built-In 10-Year Battery - White Review

When I bought these the reviews were great but they have since gone down so maybe something has changed in the production. I bought it because of the 10 year old battery for the high ceilings in my new house. Unfortunately two of the three went off for no reason and I had to pull out the ladder at 2am to silence them. I haven't had real smoke or CO2 (tested with another monitor) to see how they react to real danger. The third had no problems, but I wouldn't buy these again.

We've had this alarm clock for a few months now. Everything was fine for a few months, but then, for unknown reasons, everything went wrong. The first time we evacuated the house and called the fire department. at 4:30 p.m. They brought a carbon monoxide detector but found nothing. The gas company also sent someone to check. Nothing yet. Since then it has worked several times and nothing has happened. Always early in the morning. We're throwing it out because an alarm you don't believe in can…

I threw it away for a reason. The item was over my kitchen door, not even over my stovetop, and if the slightest bit of cooking smoke appeared anywhere in the room, it rattled LOUDLY for up to 30 minutes! The only way to tell the alarm there is no danger is to break the tongue, get rid of it and throw it in a landfill. The alarm should have a button to tell the alarm to turn off instead of killing it forever. This alarm clock has a 10 year guarantee and we had to throw it away after a month…

When my family bought the house we replaced 5 fire alarms with them. the latter finally died two years later. Not only do they honk when they die, they sound the alarm. So you wake up to what you think is a fire, but it's just overpriced crap that I'd happily throw back at the first alarm center. When this happens, the only way to stop her screams is to kill him. It was by far the worst experience I've had with a device as simple and unobtrusive as a smoke alarm. How do you break a smoke alarm?

Last year I bought 6 of these for my home. 3 had already signaled a block change and should have been thrown out. For a device that is supposedly 10 years old, this product is a complete letdown. Looking for alternatives and will never buy First Alert again. I always thought they were the best but a 10 year old device with batteries you can't replace yourself is a scam. UPDATE April 2019: Another 10 year old unit failed tonight that was less than 3 years old. The scam continues. On the plus…

This alarm worked properly (ie occasionally detected smoke while cooking and had no false alarms) for 4 months. After 4 months it started making random beeps and then beeping to indicate the product is defective and needs to be replaced. A call to First Alert customer service was an eye opener: they first tried to blame me for the problem (even though it was only a few months old) and claimed it was beeping because it was dirty, but it was spotless, and the sample was over according to their…

I bought this item on May 17, 2017 from the seller Revain Kasoy. Open the guide seams according to the instructions and read the 3-step guide to get started. The basic step was to hold down the test button for a few seconds until the test tone sounds to make sure the tone is working. Had not. After trying several test runs, doubting my ability to follow a simple 3 step guide, googling and even shaking, nothing worked. At this point I'm actually sweating and worse, I'm disappointed with all the…

And I almost jumped out of bed with a heart attack! This thing hasn't made a sound or noise in the last two years of my diligent monthly gentle grooming, examining, and cleaning. There she is, blinking a cute green light from time to time, letting me know everything is fine. How safe and secure I felt, that is, until his nervous system collapsed. He screamed and screamed at me relentlessly, not a single beep, not two, not three, not even four, just a constant screeching in my ears. The family…

I have a love/hate relationship with this smoke alarm and all 10 year old smoke alarms from other brands. This has lasted longer than other brands I've tried (more on that below), but not even a year. I haven't found a real 10 year old smoke alarm yet and I doubt they even exist at the moment. I miss the days of the 9 volt fire alarms that you replaced every six months, they didn't have all the false alarms that 10 year old fire alarms seem to have.
