Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Placement is not terribly difficult and certainly a bit less obtrusive to the view. The alarms are easy to install i removed the expired ones and installed the new ones with no issues. Easy to program and install.

These are a great, compact size, and they just as loud as the old behemoths. They also look very stylish due to their small size and smart design. These are small and discreet on walls and ceilings.



Cons

Firstly, it fails to detect actual smoke. My only thoughts is the sensing smoke mechanism is garbage and shouldn't be trusted.

Going to return them for a known brand. Buy they would not interconnect. This has to be a crime. They are only 2 yrs old.

The way they designed this product is asinine. Waste of $150.

Also, in the description it says that the battery is replaceable.

Packaging/appearance


This one came well packaged and is easy to test.


Surprised when i opened the box, but it has all the noise power of the traditional size alarms.

Competitiveness


You read so much about how some companies are not only difficult to contact with a warranty problem but are also non-responsive.


After researching online, i realized there are different types of smoke detectors, and the one by my kitchen was not only out o...  Read More

    I purchased a six pack of the xs01wr interconnected smoke detectors in may of 2021

    All was well until just the other night early july 2024 when everyone was awaken with all six detectors sounding their alarms


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Thankfully there was no fire and i quickly turned them off with the rc01 remote control i purchased separately


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    We went back to bed and 30 minutes later we were awaken again with the sound of the smoke detectors


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Luckily with the use of the remote when you silence the alarms they all go silent except the unit that first detected the problem


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    One has to press the remote a second time to silence that last alarm


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Come to find out the unit that first detected the potential problem became defective because the alarm kept sounding

    The next day i emailed servicexsense
