Kidde Pro 5 CO2 Fire Extinguisher 466180, 5lb, 5-B:C

Nice well-built fire extinguisher. Very heavy duty. Easy to follow instructions and big enough for most any containable household fire anyone would encounter. It is heavy, and you need one hand for holding and squeezing, and another hand for holding and pointing the nozzle, so take that into consideration for older people. Good product and I'd recommend. Better safe than sorry.

This item is large and heavy. The instructions are printed right on the body for ease of reference. It comes with a bracket for wall mounting that I haven't been able to install yet so I store it next to the door leading to the garage for easy access. I haven't had a need to use it and I hope I never do but it's good to have for peace of mind.

This is a difficult item to comment on because unless I have a fire I cannot use. I choose KIDDE brand over others because of past experiences and the brand name reliability. Having past experiences with another brand that was unsatisfactory. I wanted better piece of mind. I know Kidde brand is used in hotels and restaurants so I hope I don't have to use but feel secure in my decision. I will consult a professional to inspect yearly. Mounted and stored easily yet accessible.

I decided this item is something no home should be without! I live in a rural area, and our fire department is made up of volunteers. If our home catches fire it will take time for help to arrive. When I think about how much my family and home mean to me, it only makes sense to have a fire extinguisher handy in case of emergencies. Kidde is a well-known name that has been around for quite some time. When I choose an item such as this I want a product with a well-known name. The instruction manual is simple, yet thorough. It explains how to use it, inspect and care for it, and install it in your home. We installed ours at the top of the stairs leading to our lower level, right off the kitchen, where many home fires can occur. I can't give a review based on usage (thank goodness); however, if you are shopping for a home fire extinguisher I can recommend this one based on reputation, ease of installation, and use/understanding of the instruction manual.

This Kidde fire extinguisher is excellent. This is everything I wanted for my house. It is just the right size and it puts out any electrical fire or liquid grease fires in your oven.  It comes with a cone nozzle you can lift up and sweep left to right to put out any flames.  An advantages of a CO2 fire extinguisher is they don't make a mess like dry powder or liquid extinguishers do.  This is refillable, not a use once and throwaway item.  It also comes with a hanger so you can hang it any place in your home for convenience.  It weighs about 15 lbs and height is 17 inches and diameter is 5 1/4 inches. 

This fire extinguisher is suitable for use on liquids and electrical fires . The information with this item says the Pro 5 carbon dioxide unit is environmentally safe and ideal for protecting delicate electronic equipment as the clean agent leaves no residue. I have not had to use it, to find out (Thank Goodness) But, feel good to know this information. The cylinder is made from aluminum and the valve assembly is metal. I like that it has a Powder coated cylinder so it will not corrode. I appreciate the Crystal-clear, step-by-step instructions on the label, as I have never had to use one to this date. Easy-to-read, But, I feel secure in knowing what I need to do after reading the information. The pressure gauge is easy to read to check to make sure it will operate correctly. I like the Lock-safe release pin that will keep from accidental discharge. The easy-pull release pin appears to be easy enough to pull in the event of emergency. I like that it says the Dry MP agent is safe for use around food and electronics. I like that it's Rechargeable. Come with a 5 year limited warranty & Came with a wall hanger I used to hang in our kitchen.

This is a little bigger than what we are used to seeing underneath kitchen sinks. We are keeping ours in the garage for now since it is so big. It feels good in the hand and seems to be pretty straightforward to use. The directions are big and easy to read. It is an excellent product to have for peace of mind should there be a need.

We bought this to keep on hand, just in case. It was packaged nicely and was delivered quickly. I am happy to finally have one in out home. Spoke to a friend and they said this is one of the best on the market and can be used for multiple types of fire.

The fires extinguisher is big and heavy! It's CO2 so it's more for electrical fires than any other kind of fire! It will take a man to handle this extinguisher, it's that heavy and bulky to handle! I could barely get it out of the box! Fortunately, I haven't had a cause to use it! It does come with a metal (steel) mounting bracket, but no screws/bolts, to hang it! The nozzle is fixed and not flexible! You can move the nozzle, but it appears difficult to correctly point while holding the trigger to spray!I All steel/metal construction, except for the black plastic nozzle at the end of the metal spray tube! Still it's a good product to have in case of emergency!

The Kidde Prof 5 CO2 Fire Extinguisher that I ordered arrived broken. It was packed in a sturdy box, but the horn and the hose attachment's thread attachment was damaged, and would have made using the extinguisher dangerous. It was cross-threaded in assembly, and during shipment the cross threading caused damage to the horn attachment. I tried reaching out to the Kidde company several days ago to get a replacement hose/horn assembly, but they have not yet returned my email.
