- StevenGreat Carbon Monoxide Detector – Easy to Install and Reliable!I bought two of the First Alert Carbon Monoxide Detectors (model CO400), and I’m very happy with them. They were super easy to install — no outlet needed since they run on batteries. I just mounted them on the wall, and they were ready to go in minutes.I like that the battery operation means I can place them anywhere in my home without worrying about finding a plug. The alarm is loud enough to hear clearly, and the design is compact and simple.It gives me peace of mind knowing my family is protected. Overall, great value, easy setup, and reliable safety product. Highly recommend!
- Martha PhelpsGreat deal for the price.Works great, looks good. Definitely recommend. Great deal for the price.
- Ava CampbellGreat value, easy installation, good qualityI was able to easily mount it to my wall. Seems reliable, glad it comes with batteries. Price is reasonable! Alarm sound is super loud and it’s easy to test. Overall I’m satisfied and I’m glad I made this purchase. I feel secure knowing this is in my house.

- Verified PurchaserGet a good battery!I bought this one to replace an eight year old unit that was essentially the same. It’s great, with only one minor problem. The cheap battery included in the packaging started the low battery warning chirp immediately. Spend a couple more dollars and get a quality 9v. Throw the included battery away.
