[Home Depot] First Alert EZ Fire Spray - $14.88 (Warm)

Deal Link:: https://www.homedepot.ca/product/first- ... 1001389522
Price:: $14.88
Savings:: 26%
Retailer:: Home Depot

These are really handy to have around a kitchen and are less of an eye sore than your regular extinguisher. I bought one on sale from Lowe’s at the same price, so calling this warm but still a great price. I’ve never had to use this (fortunately?) but if you check out the U.S. Amazon reviews, the product is really good and the proof is in the stories/pictures.

Long time lurker but in the name of safety (and FWIW), I have this and had to use it in an emergency situation, I can verify that this is no gimmick and it does work for small fires.
A small squirt of this (~5 second spray) was able to put out a pot on fire on my stove. I now own 4 or 5 of these around my house.

How long before they have to be replaced?

Costco had it on sale for $14.99 a few weeks ago. Don’t remember the exact date.

can you safely throw it in the garbage bin after 3 years?

No, these are aerosol cans and have the explosive symbol on them. Must be disposed as Household Hazardous Waste (HHW)

Are these ok for grease fires in the kitchen? I remember reading a consumer reports article where they mentioned sprays like these might make such fires worse.

Yes, this extinguishes grease, paper, fabric, wood and electrical fires and ideal for the kitchen, garage, on boats, or in RVs

I bought these about a year ago and they’re expire in 2025

Never had to use it but feel a lot better having two of them in the condo. One in kitchen and one near the bbq.

Cheaper and less work then a fire extinguisher. they’re usually at Costco west for $20 but I grabbed a couple a few weeks ago for $15.

Good gift

Autocorrect sucks

I bought mine probably right before pre-covid outbreak and they expire in Nov 2024.

Someone is trying to flip one of these (likely from the costco deal) on VarageSale here for $15
