Our smoke dectors were 13 years old and a weird yellowish color because of their age. I’m assuming they hadn’t been changed since the home was built in 2007. After 3 years of living in our new to us home, and making several safety and cosmetic upgrades to our home. We finally decided to replace all the smoke detectors in our home. Yes- you’re supposed to do this every 10 years for safety reasons, but wow! I wasn’t prepared for how it would upgrade the look of the home. Sometimes it’s the littlest things to make your home sparkle.

Very easy to install in the same site as my last smoke detector using the same screw holes. After the initial test to see if it is operational, I haven't heard it peep (but I have only had it up for two weeks) I am looking forward to no yearly battery changes for ten years!

After having a whole-home generator put in, I needed to update my smoke/carbon monoxide alarm system. These were easy to install and were compatible with my existing system. I just popped them out of the package and clicked them in. Much cheaper than having the electrician do it!

Lasted over 10 years. They are factory dated Jan 8 2014. They both began to give the end of life chirp in the same night Feb 1 2025 - 2 hours apart.

I bought several of these for my house, but had to replace 1 @the 6 year mark, and now have another that I tested and its dead @ the 8 year mark. I wonder if there is a way to get them replaced under warranty?

The alarm went off for no reason and could not be turned off. i had the permanently deactivate the alarm since the hush button wouldn't work. Issue date is April 29, 2021. Only had it installed for 3 months and now it's useless. I hope Kidde will at least replace the unit.

I bought several of these smoke co detectors less than 3 years ago. Today the one in my bedroom went off making an announcement that there was a fire. I checked, nor was there a fire or smoke anywhere in my house. I couldn't get it to turn off so I pit it in a box with some clothes hoping it would stop alarming and saying fire. Three hours layer, when I returned home it was still going off. I read the directions on the back in order to turn it off. Because it's a 10 year lithium battery (not even 3 years old) I had to break the seal in order for it to turn off. Now it's useless. I will stick to the old fashioned smoke detectors with a removable battery. Waste of my money. Plus there's no place to make a complaint or request a partial refund or replacement for this product.

I bought 4 of these along with 10 year smoke detectors. I like doing things 1x and not having to mess with it again. I installed this September before my new tenant moved in. Fast forward 6 months, the tenant texts how they can replace the battery because it keeps chirping. I have bought dozens of smoke detectors that use 9v batteries and I have never had one die in less than 1 year. How a 10 year smoke detector dies in 6 months is beyond. This product is garbage. It was manufactured June 2022, installed September 2022, low battery February 2023.

This thing is a piece of actual junk. I paid a substantial price for it and the second it got knocked off its mount and fell it had to be killed with predjuice. I spent 30 minutes trying to silence it but the only solution was to pull the nuclear plug and discharge the battery, rendering the unit completely useless after a totally minor impact. For the amount of money spent on this item it was completely unforgivable that it would be so pathetically fragile.

All reviews are true This unit sucks A class action lawsuit is in order I shall initiate one -- please contact me.
