The item was used! I bought this item for July 4th and received the opened box (I thought this is item returned). I am extremely disappointed about this and will never do this again. Hopefully, everybody doesn't make the same mistake as me. If you want to buy it, let go down to the store and avoid to order on the online.

Could not beat the savings. I shopped around and found Sam's offered the best deal.

Came covered in white powder. Poor packaging or low quality. I’m not sure

Purchased them and a month later one of the extinguishers read as bad. I will purchase extinguishers from somewhere else next time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Kidde 1A10BC Basic Use Fire Extinguisher, 2.5 lbs I picked this extinguisher because it is rated Class A B and C Which covers the following type fires Trash fires, wood and paper fires, liquids and gases Fires and last but not least electrical fires. Which covers most if not all fires that most homes would encounter At 2 1/2 pounds it is pretty light for most to handle. Just pull the pin, and squeeze the trigger and point it at the fire.. It all so comes with a plastic wall mount so it can be placed in a secure place for when you need it and out of the way when you don’t All directions are printed right on the tank This is one of those Items you hate to have to use it, but glad it is in your home when you need it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It seems like a decent extinguisher but it is difficult to know how it will function until you really have to use it. It is easy to hold for in the house small fire problems when they may come. Its size makes it easy to place in a room and not hide it too much. Red color, of course, makes it easy to identify and find.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very happy to be able to review and get a Kidde ABC Basic fire Extinguisher for my home. I have an old one which I've thankfully never needed to use. Having another one just raised my piece of mind another 50%. This one is small and easy to keep in a handy spot. I recommend the same spot whether it's attached to the wall or not. (It does come with a wall mount). It's like a flashlight. You do not want to have to hunt for it when you need it! Don't move it around. It's ideal for home because it handles all common home fires except cooking grease. Read the instructions so you know how to use it. As I age and my home ages I try to stay on top of everything. But accidents happen. This might prevent a full-blown fire and it's so economical and easy to have around. I think it's a necessity for all homes along with good smoke alarms.

Didn’t even know I needed these but showed my husband and thought was great to keep in the house. I couldn’t resist the sale either. I bought these in store and have not used them but they passed inspection. Every home should have it especially if you have a giant fireplace like I do.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We lucked out when a small kitchen fire went out on its own while we were out. But it still left our home unlivable for several days. Since then, I'd learned 12 years is the limit for an unused extinguisher. So, when I checked the tag to find our fire extinguisher had reached the 12-year mark, we realized we needed to get a new one. And this extinguisher is great. It is big enough for a significant household fire before it gets entirely out of hand. It uses ammonium phosphate, which works well on fires with fuel from wood, paper, fabrics, liquids, electrical fires, and more. It weighs under four pounds, so it's easy to move and to use, even in a stressful, emergency situation. To use, you just pull it off the rack (included), and grasp the large metal ring to pull the pin out. Take a breath first, if able, and, then, squeeze the handle while pointing it at the base of the fire. Quick bursts are probably best. I've once had to use an extinguisher, like this one, when a neighbor's car engine caught on fire. One press of the lever and the fire went out immediately. When the Fire Department arrived, they thanked me, saying it was exactly what was needed. Be the person the Fire Department thanks, rather than the one they console.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have always had Kidde Brand fire extinguishers. This is a brand you can just. It came in it's box and well packed inside another shipping box. It has a black plastic mounting bracket so you can secure it. This extinguisher is mounted on the wall of the garage for the just in case insistent. I hope to never need it but if needed I am confident in the Kidde brand. This is the type of product you hope you never need but when you do you are glad it's there!
