Quick response

Replacement detectors attached perfectly with existing hardware and arrived next day. Remarkable!

Eventually swapped out

The first i12060 smoke detector I ordered came in an opened worn-out box. Needless to say that smoke detector didn't work. It was eventually swapped out and now I have a working product, hints the reason for the 1 star in quality. -Respect always Mr. Stephen Wilson

Keeping Safety Simple

Refreshing continuity of connectors that allowed replacement of ten year old detectors with ease unlike phone chargers that change connectors with every model.

As expected.

The survey page should be improved to eliminate the need for redundant entries.

smoke detector

This worked surprisingly well and easy. We have a CO2 detector with the same hardware connector. Do you think you have a similar replacement that fits easily with a 25 % discount?

Terrible Smoke Alarm

Received eight of these smoke alarms installed in my new house from the builder. Within 4 months four of the eight had malfunctioned and would frequently set off the entire system in my house, waking up my entire family in the middle of the night. I had the builder replace all eight. Now 9 months after replacing all eight I've already had three malfunction either continually chirping (even after replacing the battery) or setting off the entire system. Terrible product, would not recommend. ...

Excellent Product

We have two of these installed in unheated/uncooled eve space for extra protection. Despite being exposed to extreme heat and cold, they lasted a very long time, almost 8 years until they had to be replaced.
