Saved my life

The devices from this brand have literally saved the lives of my family and I. Detecting dangerous VOC levels, carbon monoxide and smoke. Amazing and well needed in every household.

Useless

Doesn’t connect to wifi. Tried multiple times, reset the device, made sure it was a 2.4ghz network, absolute scam of a company.

Works great and is awesome!

I live being able to see my house is ok 24/7 and testing alarms on the app!

Many false alarms and the app is useless

Firstly, I am experiencing many false alarms with my Kidde detectors. Secondly, the app is so much limited, it does not even clear any of the alarms. We have to unplug the detectors, reset them, and plug them in again every time! Truely disappointed!

Faulty

Late night faulty alarms. For three weeks straight. Cleaned multiple times and no support.
