Tools and Hardware Reviews of First Alert SC05CN Battery Operated Combination Carbon Monoxide/Smoke Alarm
Customer Review: Dead after a month
Summary: 1 Stars
Like other reviews mine starting chirping saying to replace the alarm after only a month or two. I didn't bother calling to get a replacement. I tried to get an inexpensive smoke / co detector and got burned by a crappy product - ironic...Customer Review: Defective
Summary: 1 Stars
Like many other reviewers, the four that I bought are having intermittent spells of the dreaded "three chirps". Not sure what brings it on, but it seems to invariably happen in the middle of the night. Extremely annoying.Customer Review: Don't be without it!
Summary: 5 Stars
Twice in this month, in the news, two families lost children to home fires and a child was found dead in my town due to Carbon Monoxide poisoning. How devastating! Although my home has working builder installed fire alarms, I wanted the extra security of the CO alarm. I bought 4 (one for the fireplace area; which is gas) and now I have many fire/CO alarms throughout my home (and of course one in each bedroom). I feel so much more comfortable now and they are VERY loud. Every home should have more than one of these (minimum one on each floor). I am so glad I bought these. Oh, and ConsumerReports.org has this listed as the best combo alarm! Remember to change your batteries with every time change :).Customer Review: Fails Fire Inspection In Watertown, MA
Summary: 1 Stars
At least for my fire department, the alarm does not do a good enough job of distinguishing between fire warnings and carbon monoxide warnings.
I wasted my money not only on this hunk of plastic but also on the failed fire inspection. (Luckily for me, I have time for another inspection before the closing date on our home.)
Get a "talking" detector to be on the safe side.

Customer Review: Good Combo
Summary: 5 Stars
These were bought to replace others. Never had any problems. Combo preferred over buying two units for smoke and carbon monoxide.
