The price is right on this 3-pack of smoke alarms. We have had them for months and they work fine. The unit makes that chirping sound when the battery is low, also.

Kidde cannot make it easier to install. I liked that a 9V battery was included with the unit. The small size is nice, however, if you previously had an older and wider unit, then be prepared to plug a screw hole and do some touch up painting on the wall or ceiling. Beyond that, I just hope my units work when needed.

These work extreamly well. They are exactly as advertised and the hush button really does work. They let me know when the toast is done exactly right.

They are small which I like and so far I have had no nuisance alarms. Here in CA every bedroom has to have a smoke detector so I was looking for the best price for what I wanted. Amazon was it. Free super saver shipping was great and made the price better than in a store.

I bought a twin pack of these at Lowes for $8!!

Quick mounting, nice small design, loud alarm, came with battery, nice "hush" feature great to quite false alarms and great for the money

I bought 4 packages of these smoke detectors, one for each of my girls for Christmas. Now that they are on their own, I know they will be that much safer!

Not sure if this is a reflection of the product/manufacturer or Amazon's storage policy, but I received this 3 pack of smoke detectors today 23 Feb 2010 and I checked the manufactured date...23 Feb 2008. They are 2 years old on the day I received them. The instructions clearly state these products have a life of 10 years from date of manufacture. So, I am already 20% into that. I would expect 6 or 9 months, but 2 years? That blows. On some products, I would not worry too much about a ten year life, but this is something the life of my family could depend on.

Not impressed - I will be contacting Amazon for their thoughts...maybe I am being unreasonable.

Be warned, and check your date of manufacture when you receive this three pack.

I paid the same for ONE of these locally as I did for the 3 pack on amazon. They seem to work fine per the test button and one random kitchen overcooking incident...I guess I will update if my house ever catches on fire.

the alarms are poorly made and did not work i thought it may have been a faulty set bought in another store still did not work. I dont recommend these

I bought these for our new house, they have a low profile which I like and thus far we haven't had any nuisance alarms. The install was a breeze.
