Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com Product Description
Carbon monoxide (CO) is the leading cause of accidental poisoning deaths in America, yet many people don't know they are suffering from CO poisoning until its too late. Since symptoms of CO poisoning are like the flu, you might not even know you're in danger at first. That's why a carbon monoxide alarm is an excellent way to protect your family. It can detect the CO you can't see, smell or taste in the air.

The First Alert CO400 carbon monoxide alarm uses an electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor-the most accurate technology available. The permanent sensor lasts up to five years. It is powered by two AA replaceable alkaline batteries giving you peace of mind even during power outages. The test/silence button both silences the alarm and allows you to test its functionality. The unit monitors and re-alarms if carbon monoxide levels persist sounding a loud 85-decibel horn. No installation is required and the attractive design allows the unit to be placed anywhere you need it. It includes an optional wall mount with no outlet required. An audible and visual low battery signal alerts you to replace the battery. Pull down action chart has convenient guide on what to do if an alarm sounds. 5 year limited warranty. UL listed. --Bree Norlander

What's in the Box
One carbon monoxide alarm, user's manual, and two AA batteries

I bought this along with the more expensive First Alert CO410 model to replace two Kidde-brand models which had died within two years of purchase. I figured a different brand had to be better, right?

No.

I put in fresh batteries, and this one started making a squealing noise, somewhere between a proper alarm and a sick baby. Something was clearly not right, and no amount of pushing buttons or changing batteries would help.

The other more expensive model was no better -- its fancy LCD panel displayed random meaningless lines rather than letters or numbers (similar to the way the Kidde models had failed, in fact), and similarly refused to be reset to a sane state.

I don't know about you, but that's all the chances I'm willing to give First Alert. If the two I got were so broken out of the box, how can I possibly trust any replacement?

So I don't know what I'm going to get, but it won't be from either First Alert or Kidde.

Haven't had to use it yet. It was delivered on time and packaged well.
I didn't have any problems with the transaction at all. I got it to use in my daughters car because she thought she may have a leak, due to the fact that whenever she drove, she became very tired. I guess if the alarm goes off, she will surely wake up, with as loud as they are!!
