Really no idea what to say here..?! Aren’t going to install it, as it’s for my folding camper with gas hob. If I wake up dead. I’ll know it really didn’t work.
When it arrived i fitted in minutes and it’s easy to set and test good produc
Just pull the protective film from the battery, and it is ready for the next 10 years, just wish my PC was as easy
Gave it 5 stars as I just assume it works. Purchased before our gas inspection as the gas man had mentioned on his previous 2 visits that we should invest in such an alarm. He liked it and his approval put us at ease.
Easy to install, good price I guess but first one I’ve bought for my daughter’s bedroom as she has the boiler on that room. Followed instructions. I haven’t put it on the wall, it’s in the airing cupboard with the boiler sitting on a shelf.
Use this as a portable detector in my Campervan. So far so good. Easy to use and decent quality
It’s a good product & it’s value for money. The instructions are easy to follow & it’s easy to install. My old one broke down but this is much better & as a bonus it looks better too.
Easy installation and clear instructions, although without a carbon monoxide leak it’s hard to fully rate but the audio test soun should wake the dead
Value for money. Hard to review as you never know how good this product is until it’s called into use
Bought this for our caravan. Worth every penny. Very easy to install and test. Good battery life.
This is a great and also a necessary item to use in conjunction with the small gas heater we use in our campervan. A+++++
Bought this for safety. Works well and easy to attach to the wall. Great little alarm
Obviously I hope I never find out whether this will work properly, but item arrived quickly.
Works a treat easy to install and it monitors 24/7 green light flashes every 30 seconds a must if you have a log burner or an old boile
Popular brand/model that’s easy to fit but take notice of the placement instructions. Not ‘tested’ it as (hopefully) we don’t have a CO issue. Useful to have but no substitute for regular appliance maintenance.
Bought this for my summerhouse as I got a galore gas fire In it just bought it to make sure that when we use the fire that there are no harmful fumes
Flexible fast to set up product. Bought on recommendation of smart meter fitter due to gas use. Need to write the date on it as they say throw away after 10 years and replace.
Needed a new detector to check if leakage of carbon monoxide.This seemed to be a good quality good value monitor.Hopefully apart from the initial test we won’t have a leak but nice to know it will warn us
This item arrived well packaged and on time. Placed in the house to give the protection I was looking for. Well pleased, good purchase..
Arrived next day and does what it says. I’ve used this brand before and had no issues. Good value compared to popular high street store asking 9 more for exactly the same product.
Easy to fit, screws included in the box. It arrived as advertised, and works.
When installing this it tells you to check that it works before putting it up. It scared the living daylights out of me, my husband, and my dog and woke up the baby who was in the other room – so it works extremely well and I have every faith it would easily wake us all up in the dead of night if it needed to.
Ordered on the 26th April and arrived today (27th) thanks to Amazon Prime.
Partner is happy that we now have a detector at home – better to be safe than sorry; CO is a “silent killer”.
Happy with the 7 year Warranty and 10-year life – didn’t expect the batteries to last that long! Requires x3 AA sized but it’s not a problem replacing them for the price of the device.
The green, ‘Operate’ light flashes every 30 seconds to show that the unit is working (rather than being on constantly – not a problem when you know what to expect).
Happy with the purchase and peace of mind that it offers. Would recommend.
Great product, fitting instructions were clear and helpful.
Careful, when your put the batteries in, it goes off to test. Jumped out my skin.
Seems ok. Set up easy to do. Very loud alarm. Think we had this one in the past. Good price too and comes with batteries
This is a well priced, easy to install carbon monoxide alarm. Fast delivery, and is working well. Highly recommended for the quality of the product.
This is the second time that I bought this product. It’s very good but I just should point out that Kidde have reduced the usable life of the product to 7 years. Its not 10 years as stated in the product informatio
Excellent device, neat and tidy to look at,. It lasts for a very long time on one set of batteries. Also very economical to purchase.
Excellent product, very easy to set up. Small and compact, due existing alarm bleeping fault, needed asap amazon did not disappoi
prompt delivery . An inconspicuous and neat monitor which can free stand and is therefore moveable . Fortunately the alarm has not sounded so I can’t comment on efficacy but I can say it is very loud from the initial set up !
I feel so much safer with having this in the house. It’s easy to install and it also comes with batteries so you can use straight away. It’s not very bulky so it looks neat and tidy in the house, came the next day after ordering. It can be put op the wall or just placed on a shelf like I’ve done
I dont know why it didn’t occur to me to buy one sooner. Every home should have at least one. This device is value for money easy to use and easy to check weekly that the battery does not need changing. It is good to know it will save lives, hopefully it won’t be needed but goid to know it’s there. Money well spent.
Good quality.
Gas Board said it’s a very good one when they came to service boile
This product can be fitted anywhere that there is a possibilty of carbon monoxide. Battery operated so no need to be near a power socket. Simple to fit and operate.
Fast delivery & looks exactly like the images, so a good start. Batteries included so a bonus which were easy to install. I’m unable to test it as we don’t have any fumes leaking, so I have to assume it does. Pressing the test button emits a very loud shrill tone.
This is my second purchase as really happy with the first one. It can be wall mounted or free standing. Neat and with a good guarantee. Perfect to place close tot he gas boiler in the utility room. Arrived swiftly.
Bought to replace an almost identical one that had gone out of date. Don’t see the need for anything fancy but it’s loud when tested and presumably works fine as it’s a trusted brand and has all the right certifications
Brilliant we just had our apartment evacuated… inside and out ….leaks
Brilliant product.
for a Life saving product the cost is excelle
Good price for a necessary life saving device. Excellent, fast, the same day delivery option. Thank you.
This is just great! I was advised by British Gas I needed a second carbon monoxide detector in the bathroom owing to the boiler; prices varied but this baby was an excellent price and after reading the reviews went with it and it’s great and VERY LOUD! Would highly recommend.
Liked the fact that all you had to do was put in a battery and ready to use. Not digital but replaced a similar one which was past its sell by. Simple and does the job
This was easy to install and easy to use. It comes with instruction booklet which also has information about how to look for the signs of carbon monoxide poisoning and the different stages.
There is also a warning sticker which tells you what to do if your alarm sounds a warning there is carbon monoxide being leaked.
It tells you what to do and who to call.
Compact so it’s not seen on top of my unit.
Value for money but there again you can’t put a price on something that can save your life.
It’s battery operated so no
Wiring
Seems fine. Good loud signal. Frequent flashing light to show still active. Otherwise time will tell
Either they think ive bought something a bit more adult or I don’t know anything about this item.
As far as I’m concerned, it’s a carbon monoxide dectector, sits on our window sill as we have a coal fire. Easy to get up and running, it’s just happily flashing every 30secs to show its working.
Does exactly what it says on the tin. As the old advert used to say.
Arrived quickly, as described at a good price. I hope it never needs to go off !
It didn’t turn up had to get intuch with them, but they did send a new 1
Came early and just what we needed, good size and easy to put up
I feel safe , knowing any carbon monoxide will be detected.
It looks good, we are never sure if it works until we have a leak. Hopefully neve
Very easy to fit looks good dont even know it’s there. Let’s hope it never goes off
Easy to install and assemble and Sits well on the mantlepiece without having to attach it to a wall. The detector emits a very loud noise when activated and provides you with a sense of security.
Good replacement for expired carbon monoxide detector. I have used this brand before and I like to use the same brand if possible – well worth the money
I bought two of these alarms, one for the kitchen, as we have a gas cooker, and one for the lounge, as we have a gas fire. Kidde do sell LED digital ones as well, but I chose these for simplicity. The instructions are easy to follow and the alarms are very easy to set up. I would recommend these alarms.
Does exactly what it says. Delivery was brilliant – came before expected date. Very pleased with price.
It is a bit fiddly to get batteries located because of the springs ( a little force may be needed to push home in locations)
I had to run the initial test twice in order to get the green light flashing every 30 – had to do that the first one I bought. A good machine.
Perfect – Quick Delivery and came with batteries and wall hangings. Perfect. The test function seems to be working ok. I cant vouch for the alarm working unless we have a carbon monoxide leak however I have had this brand of alarms for years and never let me down. 100% trust them. Thank you
Looks good and gives me reassurance that I can sleep safe at night.
Was bought as a replacement for out of date one
Replaced like for like
Appears solid, and works when testing. Apart from that I won’t know if it works until there is a leak
A quality product that is easy to set up and gives peace of mind. Ten years of reassurance from Kidde. Seller dispatched very quickly and I am happy to recommend both them and the product.
Just had a new boiler installed so thought it prudent to get a carbon monoxide detector as well, in order to keep safe
we purchased this as a replacement for one that was now out of date.It is the same one that we have had for many years so were pleased with this purchase came on time well packed easy to install. would recomend .
These are good, we have them in our static caravan, a little fiddly to put batteries in to start with, but fine after tha
Quick delivery. Item as described. Value for money. Would recommend seller and item. Thanks.
Bought these to replace a different make that turned out not to be reliable.. these kidde ones are reliable and what is needed to safeguard and protect.
Excellent quality product followed up by super customer service. Recommended.
Have always bought this make. And from experience can certainly tells you it works. Great value for money.
Easy to use and set up . Green flashing intermittent light lets you know it’s working
Exactly as described. Arrived on time. Looks neat. I have mine standing but comes with screws to install on wall.
Arrived extremely quickly from the seller. Easy to put together and test. I just need someone to mount it on the wall for me now.
simple to use , have it up above my fire place on top of a large mirror ,good price for peace of mind
Great value.
This is the second one I have bought the last one lasted 7years
This is a simple device without ‘bells and whistles’ but it does the job!
Fitted in exactly the same way as the redundant old one
Bought to replace one I have had for a number of years. Simple, easy, reassuring.
I’ve been meaning to get one for ages, as I have a gas fire and a gas boiler. I will be buying another one soon to position near the boiler.
Warranty expires at 7 years, so needs to be changed at that time for your own peace of mind!!
Came quickly from supplier. All instructions are supplied with the product, as well as the 3 x AA Batteries.
Well worth the money for your security, as Carbon Monoxide can be fatal!!
Simple to use which is great for us technophobes. A great price compared to others
Good value item which arrived pre expected date of delivery. Easy to install and test produced a deafening alarm which is very useful when sited at rear of house. If this last and works as well as old detector I will be delighted with my choice.
I was very pleased with this item and it arrived on time
I had the gas board come due to a break down and they wanted to charge me 30.00 for one so I bought this and I am highly satisfied
My last KIDDE carb mon dets were long life and trouble free, these were about the best price I could find so I hope I’m OK for another 10 years !
Nice and slim. Stands on its own. Does the job on the label.
Does exactly what it said it would do. Delivered promptly. Provides reassurance for everyone in the home.
Excellent product,bought to replace exhausted previous Kidde models. Working silently away no problem.
Good value for money and easy to set up. Bought one on recommendation from chimney sweep, but this was much cheaper and almost identical to the one he was going to sell me at 3 times the price!!!
This is our 3rd one of these now and they do as it says on the tin!!!
Not much to say really, worked straight out of the box, neat alarm smaller than my kidde alarm it replaces, hope to get years of service out of it like the one it replaced
his is my second one. put them in lounge and beside gas boiler. so easy to put together even for me. would recommend.
It looks well designed and made – my last CO2 detector lasted 7 years (different make) so I hope this one will last at least as long.
it set up easily and gives a feeling of confidence – of course I won’t know unless / until we discover a CO 2 leak just how effective it is.
