Title: Didn't Stand the Test of Time
Product review: I bought one of these for my small condo. When it first arrived, it worked as intended. After about 1.5 years, the display stopped working correctly and had missing segments on the LCD. Pressing the Test button produced no test alert. Replacing the batteries had no effect. What bothers me is that there was no "warning" that the device was failing. I never once heard the slightest chirp from it. What good is a 5 year warranty if there's a good chance you won't even notice the device has failed until it fails to save your life. And you die. Does that seem melodramatic? Maybe. But when discussing a device designed to save lives, I think it's a realistic assessment of the situation.
