Title: Horrible - but yes, you need SOMETHING... no peace of mind here.
Product review: We have had our Kidde monitor for 6 months or so. My husband is gone and this thing just went crazy - I have no idea where the manual is, and the short descriptions on the back of the unit do not describe the constant, rapid, fire-alarm type beeps coming out of thing. Took me 15 minutes of holding my finger on the disable button while trying to get the battery out - but that is not the issue, I guess (you should have seen me, though - I was hitting it at one point - alarms that loud and are horrifying when you have already gotten the message and CANNOT disable it without tools). Like another tester, this alarm still went off when I took it outside - ambient air made no difference. It was a malfunction and it was not the 'malfunction beep' pattern. I was too freaked out to notice any error message being displayed before I yanked the thing out of the wall. Find something else. From the reviews, the malfunction rate is too high.
