Tools and Hardware Reviews of Kidde KN-COPP-B Front Load Battery-Operated Carbon Monoxide Alarm with Digital Display
Customer Review: Bang for the buck
Summary: 4 Stars
No issues so far with this unit. I like the digital readout, and that
it can be wall-mounted or stand alone like a picture frame on a desk
or shelf. We have ours on a desk behind a picture, but still within
our site. Could not beat the price found on Amazon.
Customer Review: Battery life concerns (non-owner)
Summary: 1 Stars
That digital display (though it appears the size of a commemorative postage stamp)has to chew through the AA batteries.
After several weeks of seeing zero.zero on the display, it then becomes a novelty.
Kidde is remiss in not providing battery life with this unit.
Customer Review: Best Carbon Monoxide Detector!
Summary: 5 Stars
I owned the previous model of this carbon monoxide detector and it lasted over 10 years! The digital readout allows you to review any CO levels by just pressing a button. Once, after painting a room, I checked the readout and a low-level reading appeared. After checking the manual I found out that the reading was due to the paint fumes. I feel safer knowing I can check for low-level readings that do not activate CO alarms in order to be aware of a potential problem. Some models do not have this feature and you would not have any way to know of a low-level reading. Also, the CO detector is easy to set up and operate, runs on batteries (included), and may sit on a shelf or be mounted on a wall. I believe this is a high-quality product at a very reasonable price!Customer Review: Better than a screaming idiot light
Summary: 4 Stars
We already had 3 standard smoke/CO alarms in the house and were told by our furnace repairman during a recent cleaning visit that we should upgrade to alarms with digital displays.
We ordered the first one from Amazon and liked it, so we decided to buy two more from HD, as they were the same price when considering shipping. Delivery from Amazon was, as always, sooner than advertised.
This is one of those products that you just have to have faith will do what it's supposed to. I gave it four stars because we won't really know until it actually happens. I did place our first one in the garage with the car backed in and running (and the garage doors open...) to see if it would register and it did very quickly! Yikes, that was loud...
Hopefully, we'll never have to find out if it will work with something a little less than an auto tailpipe nearby.
Customer Review: Bought 3
Summary: 5 Stars
Bought three - one for each floor of our home. Seem to be working. We tested them. We have 2 old ones in the house and wanted to have extra 'insurance'. Arrived promptly. I like that I can prop them up in inconspicuous places or screw them into the wall. The front battery panel is a huge plus. No need to remove in order to replace batteries.
