Great replacement for existing smoke detector

Would Recommend

I purchased this one to replace a 19 year old First Alert smoke detector that was failing. I was happy to find that this was good replacement. I was able to use the existing connector and brakcet

False Alarming

Would Not Recommend

After only a few months, the alarm would randomly alarm for no reason. After troubleshooting, it continued to sound every so often leaving no other choice than to buy a new one. Poor quality. Wasted time and money.

Quick and easy replacement of the old alarms. Included extra parts for other plug styles and instructions. Thankfully it was plug & play; same plug as the old one and included a battery.
