 Kidde Smoke Alarm September 3, 2010
Bill Webber
We got the Kidde Smoke Alarms from Amazon. Very good service, fast delivery,
and the product is working fine.
 First chirping, then full-blown alarm for no reason August 22, 2010
Judith R. Lacourciere (Washington DC)
Last summer, my upstairs Kidde smoke detector started chirping, then going off--even after I replaced the battery. Nothing would make it stop the noise, so I removed it. I replaced it with a Kidde i12060.
Last month in the middle of the night, it chirped once. After a week or so, it started chirping every few minutes. I checked the battery--it was still good. I changed it anyway. A week later the alarm went off in the middle of the night. I stumbled out of bed, convinced of a fire. Nothing. I pushed "Hush," and that was that. Yesterday, it happened again. I took the battery out, put in a new battery, cleaned the unit with a can of compressed air.
This afternoon it went off again--a constant, "there's a fire!" beeping. Pushed "Hush," no hush. Also no fire, and I'm not cooking or grilling; I'm not even running the dryer; I don't smoke. I had to pull the thing off the ceiling to get it to stop. Very discouraging!
I'm not sure I would buy another Kidde brand. I don't want to replace my smoke detectors every year.
Easy answer of a yearly task August 15, 2010

The older Kidde smoke alarm needed the owner to remove the unit from its base to replace the battery. It was not evident how this had to be done and often required a review of the manual (if you could find it). This new system is self evident, does not require removal from the base and takes only seconds to accomplish.
 false alarms June 16, 2010

I have five of these in my home. About a year ago I replaced them all due to random false alarms (they were about 8 years old). Since then I've had to replace two of the new ones due to false alarms. I'm pulling them all out and replacing with another brand. Quality on these is extremely poor.
False alarms for no reason! April 21, 2010

I purchased two of these to replace aging alarms in my townhouse. Within a month, both the upstairs alarm and the one in the basement started sounding false alarms. I was forced to remove both units and am looking for a replacement.
