First Alert EZ Fire Spray, Extinguishing Aerosol Spray, Pack of 2, AF400-2, RED

I purchased this 2 pack of small fire extinguishers to have on hand in case a fire ever breaks out at my home. While I have smoke detectors, a regular fire extinguisher and a fire blanket, I wanted something that would be super simple to grab up and use without even having to think twice about how it works. Having a fire extinguisher in a can seems to meet that need. With a larger extinguisher, I would have to get it from a different place, get it out of the bracket, and remember how to use it properly. While that should not be a problem, combine it with adrenaline and stress if there is a fire, plus vision problems, it is not the most reassuring feeling. These First Alert EZ Fire Spray cans do away with much of those concerns, as the cans' aerosol spray is good for all types of fires - flammable liquids, wood and paper, and electrical fires, so you do not have to think about whether what is burning matches what the extinguisher will work on. They can be easily stored in the kitchen (or around the house) as they are small, and will also remained pressurized for 3 years. The expiration date on the cans I received were just under 3 years, so were newly made at the time Amazon delivered them. First Alert states on their own website that the cans do remain pressurized beyond 3 years, but there is no way to know when the pressure has fallen too low for the aerosol to spray properly, as a pressure valve cannot be installed on a can. It is a good purchase to have, and I hope I never have to use it .

You never know when you need this! And I had to use it! Saved our home and our lives! I highly recommended this! So worth it!

Very handy to have for fire safety. Quality is good, had a small in house fire started from a candle that broke some glass. Was easy to use this spray and put out fire quickly. Saved from any major damage and ease of use was a definite plus.

The only thing I don't like about this is the color because it blends in with several of my cleaning product. So, in an emergency type situation (which of course a fire is), It might take a few extra precious seconds to find this. It really does (not exaggerating) look exactly like several of the cleaning products I keep in my hall closet & under my kitchen sink which is where I put these (got two). I got one for upstairs & one for the kitchen. But, I love how SMALL, LIGHT & EASY TO USE! That's why I got them! I had gotten two from a home shopping network but they were quite heavy & more importantly...they were able to be used on all types of fires! THESE CAN BE USED FOR ANY KIND OF FIRE...WOOD, PAPER, ELECTRIC, ETC.!!1

Great sale price and easy to use like a can of hair spray. Love the compact size and that it's easier to keep around as it's not bulky like the other old-school kind. I also really liked that it's made in the USA!

Perfect fire extinguisher for any location. Small enough for car, boat, camping,etc.

Well, I got to use it tonight and I’m glad I had it. I came home tonight after work and my wife had gone upstairs to sit with one of our cats. She’d left a candle burning on the mantle in the living room as she often does. It’s one of those bowl candles with 3 wicks. I was sitting on the sofa with another of our cats (yep, we have a lot of cats) and I looked over and the whole bowl was on fire with flames literally 8-10 inches high! I ran to the kitchen and grabbed one of these fire extinguisher cans and pulled the top off. Went over to the fire and shot the extinguisher for about 3 seconds which put it out. I noticed that the wax was super hot and you could feel the heat a good foot and a half away. I moved the candle to the deck outside to cool down. I went back and noticed a small white puddle on the mantle and some stuff an inch or two up the wall which I thought was wax but turned out to be the fire extinguisher fluid. I got a kitchen towel and wiped everything off and there was no damage or any mark left behind, as if nothing had happened!! You always wonder what if…if I hadn’t been in the room…if I hadn’t had the extinguisher to hand…well, who knows. Anyway, the extinguisher was easy to use, super effective, and yes, easy to clean off. A perfect product test and it passed with flying colors!!

I haven't had to use them yet but it's comforting to know I have them around the house in case of a fire. Much easier to get to and use then an actual fire extinguisher in an emergency. The price was fantastic.

A convenient and easy-to-use (if ever needed) format.

Lightweight, simple to handle, and sprays effectively. Great for quick response to small fires every home should have one

Haven't tried it yet but we aware that the bottles can be stored only between 0C and 40C. If you live in Canada, you won't be able to store it in your car in winter.

I can't say how it works as we have not had to use it but it does give us peace of mind to have it close. Gave one to my son for his house. Makes a great present.

Great price
