Pros

Ionization type detectors with americium have enough activity that if it got out at a nuclear plant, it would be a big deal. The smoke detector was sold for a very reasonable price.

Installation was supremely easy. This kit is very affordable in today’s environment. Only gripe is the holes for the screws to install doesn't line of with the ones that were previously installed. Easy to install and to check. Comes with screws and su...  Read More

This will last for the next 10 years without needing to be changed or worrying about the low battery chirp. It makes the house feel safer. Mine is a large ranch house with basement, but this would be great for two story homes especially.

Quality


Easy to install on my living room wall and comes with the mounting bracket and screws to get the job done installing.


I bought 3 of these alone with the magnetic holders that would make them easy to mount (for a 'senior' woman like me--age 80).

Price


Great price, easy installation long life battery.


Liked the price and how quickly it arrived.

This works so much better than the cheap ones that need a 9v battery.
