Prior discussion I recall people mentioning Lowe’s as a better choice.

This model (Home 1A10BC) seems to have a problematic history as there have been recalls against it. Although the following is an example of a 2017 recall, it is unclear if the current item being sold has been updated or not.
Here’s a newer notice:
IIRC, plastic handles bad, metal good.
Any answer from woot on whether or not these are the metal or plastic handled extinguishers? I wouldn’t want to buy the 2-pack only to have to send them into a recall.
I was about to buy, too. Good thing I looked here!
Hi there. Just heard back from the vendor. These have a metal handle.
Also note that the info above is for Kidde. We’re selling First Alert.
Bought these this morning and they already shipped. Thanks, WOOT!!!
Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Don’t go spreading stuff like that around!!!
Back in the old days, Wooters would be elated if things shipped out within a week.
(Something about missing the old.woot …)
Does this come with the standard wall mount bracket for each unit?
That’s exactly what I was going to point out. Lowes has them for a few pennies less, no shipping when you pick them up. Doesn’t seem like a good deal
