Title: Kidde Recalls Fire Extinguishers with Plastic handles and Push-button handles
Post by: nicka on December 30, 2017, 04:53:48 PM
Got a recall notice in the mail. Seems that the plastic handles and push-button are impacted.  About 37.8 million (in addition, 2.7 million in Canada.  The recall involves 134 models of Kiddie fire extinguishers manufactured between January 1, 1973 and August 15, 2017.

That's a lot of fire extinguishers. 

I'll have to look at my several and see if they are that brand.
