I bought 2 of these and 1 of them is a menace, always going off in the middle of the night and we can't shut it off. So, we keep it outside in the garage but it still goes off sometimes. The other one is not going off for no reason, but if it gets bumped out of the outlet- the shrill is relentless and it is not easy to reset. The directions are on the back of this thing, but you have to sit through the shrilling beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeppp while you read the instructions. It's enough to drive a person CRAZY. Babies are screaming, pets are running. It's unnecessarily loud.

Got this CO as a gift and it works fine.
Read the other reviews about it being loud so I check it and the sound level is just fine for me and the family.
No problems.

We bought this alarm during the holidays. Works good no problems. I would buy it again. You should buy one or two.

After reading the Amazon reviews about this unit being loud I went to the Kidde website to get more information. Here are a few of the highlights:
-Tamper Resist Feature - Unit goes into constant alarm mode if it has been unplugged or has come loose from the outlet.
-Low Battery Hush® - Silences low battery chirp warning for up to twelve hours in order to maintain protection without having to replace the battery at an inconvenient time.
-Loud 85dB - Alerts you of deadly CO gas.
Amazon tells you the same thing. THIS THING IS LOUD. So if you want a CO Alarm that is quiet do not buy this one. It is also made Tamper Resistant for places, like a hotel, where you do not want the unit ripped off. So if you are going to move your CO Alarm around do not buy this one.
I wanted a LOUD CO Alarm that is going to get me out of the house and tell me IF someone or something messed with it. So I bought this one.

After getting this product we installed it close to the garage. Installation is very easy, just install battery and plug in.....
After a few months the alarm woke us from a sound sleep in the middle of the night. Good thing the alarm is very loud because my wife and I sleep very hard and the bedroom is a distance away from the alarm.
We thought the alarm was defective but asked our fire fighter neighbor to check our home with his "high end" CO level detector.
Turns out our hot water heater was leaking CO.
I also found out the Kidde CO Alarms are UL list and other brands are not. Google "UL listing" if you are too young to know about UL product testing.
