Battery dead during installation

Both alarms installed right out of the box. The second alarm clock started beeping immediately after installation. So much for a 10 year old battery, even 10 seconds wasn't enough. Kidde, I have your products all over my house. I am very disappointed in this. You should never sacrifice your safety for inferior products.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Battery dead after 2 months!

If I could give 0 stars I would. Installed April 2019, died June 2019, 2 MONTHS! Now that I'm out of the return window I need to speak to Amazon and now they want me to speak to the manufacturer. I just want a refund, I haven't spent $42 on smoke alarms in the last 2 months.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Some little things

The item I received was old stock. The smoke alarms have a 10 year lifespan and the expiry date on the packaging I received is 2023. The expiration date is determined by the radioactive element in the smoke alarms, not the date of installation. Smoke alarms must be replaced after 10 years from the date of manufacture.

Pros
  • Solid finish
Cons
  • Small parts

I do not recommend for safety

I bought 3 Kidde brand smoke alarms and 3 other brands smoke alarms to install in my home. After 2 months at 3am the kids alarm clock rang and wouldn't stop. I couldn't turn it off, it's still going in the trash. It startled us all at 3am. We've all looked for a possible source, but nothing. False detection. He was also in a good position. The other 2 are okay. But now I wouldn't trust them.

Pros
  • Trial period for one year
Cons
  • Not sure

False Alarms: Smoke Detectors and Fire Alarms

Purchased July 2019. Installed 11/15/19. One caught fire again 2 weeks later when there was no fire or smoke. I had to rip off the blanket and neutralize it. The second lasted only 3 months without packaging until February 2020! The same, repeated flashes with no smoke, no fire. Terrible product that will leave you completely paranoid. The packaging says it will last 10 years. Didn't even last 3 months. So disappointed. Kidde has always been a brand that I have trusted.

Pros
  • High marks for support and longevity from testers
Cons
  • Some difficulties

2nd alarm system failed 1 year ago

Bought these 2 packs to replace another kidde alarm which failed after 1-2 years. I bought a replacement in May this year and today (September) this stupid alarm started beeping loudly in the middle of the night. And there's no way to actually reset it. I pressed the button and it went silent for 4-5 minutes and then went back into "smoke mode". If it wasn't 1am I would probably try other approaches, but at 1am I tend to turn off the hard stop alerts that don't work. Installed the 2nd of 2…

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Write later

Turns off for no reason and cannot be turned off.

I purchased these smoke alarms on 7/23/2020 and installed them in place of the old non-lithium alarms. They've always worked well and it's easy to turn us off when they're working. When I got home today I saw my little dog shaking as she ran out the door into the woods. (She never leaves the yard alone.) I walked in and heard the horrid screech of a siren—no smoke, no fire. I managed to get it off the wall, but couldn't turn it off for more than about 20 seconds at a time. I had to start…

  • Price

Recall required to avoid deaths

This product requires a recall due to a serious safety issue, which could result in death. When I took this product out of the box it didn't work. So I looked at the back and found the instructions. I followed them. Then I put the mount back on and everything worked. When I created the second block, I found that the instructions said to disable that block. So I killed the first one. I then wondered why none of them worked. Did I miss something. Then I looked again and saw the words <ON…

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Nothing
