I use these in my kitchen and car. They arrived promptly and in sensible packaging. What I really like about them is the visual condition indicator which has a green to red dial showing the lifetime of the extinguisher.
Does the job but it gets everywhere. My wood burning stove got out of hand with one of those compressed wooden bricks. The whole thing burned so hot and fast that the flue paint exploded and the metal in the flue and parts of the stove glowed white and went soft. This thing put it out in seconds… but every surface was covered in the dust despite it being aimed into the fire.
Delivery was very fast ie came the next day.
Hopefully it will do the job if it ever needed.
The Amazon ad’ says it is guaranteed for 5 years but from when? I contacted the manufacturer to ask and was referred to small black coloured numbers on the side of the canister. The numbers are jumbled but the manufacturer was able to tell me that it was made in September this year and an Amazon receiept could be used if there was ever problems within 5 years……hope that is useful info’.
This is compact enough for my car/small campervan, won’t get in the way too much, but will hopefully do the job. Hopefully I will never have to find out!
Came well packed. Haven’t used it but it’s something I was required to have I’ve got this for home use. It’s ideal for child day care, foster carers and families. Would be also ideal in a craft workshop/small business space
i do some dangerous things in my study. using microwave oven transformers to drive jacob’s ladders, playing with powerful laser diodes, making a tesla coil, using a home made x-ray machine; all my nerdy hobbies could set my home afire. it gives my wife, and indeed myself, peace of mind knowing we could make a futile effort to fight the inferno i may make. cheers.
Arrived with safety ring broken and low on pressure (close to zero).
Useless.
Update: Seller reached out and sent a replacement. The new device arrived in one piece and seems functional.
I bought one initially for the kitchen and then on delivery realised that it was the ideal size for carrying around in my car, in case of emergency – it is a standard requirement for taxi drivers etc. Just like an Insurance Policy it is something you buy and then hope that you never have to use it. Thankfully, I cannot comment on what it is like in action but it has the correct certification, a pressure gauge, and is very competitively priced.
