"My experience with the First Alert Store was very good, but it was only by chance that I even learned of its existence!
My comments really apply to the FirstAlert.com website, but I think the First Alert Store should be aware of these comments because I suspect the issues I am drawing your attention to affect your business negatively, big-time!
On the FirstAlert.com website, there is a 'Where to Buy' tab and I used that, but all I saw on repeated visits were the logos (and links) for all the stores like ACE, HomeDepot, Lowes, Sears, Amazon, etc. I did not even notice the teeny, TEENY print above all those logos: "First Alert products can be purchased at the First Alert Store Online or at the retailers below." For goodness sake, let people know there IS a First Alert Store!
Also, I was looking for a very specific - and seemingly impossible-to-find - product: a combination photoelectric and ionization smoke alarm with a 10 year battery. I searched ("combination pe and ion smoke alarm 10 year battery"), repeatedly, on the FirstAlert.com website and nothing came up. I've forgotten how -- it definitely was not through the 'Where to Buy' tab or through the First Alert website at all -- I finally came across the First Alert Store and found the exact thing I was looking for, a combination pe and ion smoke alarm with a 10 year battery. I had not been able to find any mention that this product existed anywhere else on the web, so I did find what I wanted, but only after searching and searching again for a couple of weeks."
"replaced all 4 old 10yr+ detectors with new replacements in less than 20 mins."
"Product ordering and shipping as well as follow-up exceptional. I have not installed product yet, as I am out-of-pocket and traveling. Can speak as to the product once i install such. However the customer service and simple ease of order/delivery/and follow-up at First Alert was superior. Be several months before able to install product and can address then. As to the Customer Service at First Alert, such is highly recommended. "
"Easy to order, fast delivery and very easy to install."
"Order and delivery were processed very quickly and efficiently. Packaging was excellent. Condition of book is as good as new. Altogether a great purchasing experience."
"The smoke detector was in working order and it was delivered quicker than expected. "
"The safe actually took a week to ship. Safes are shipped from the factory, so it's not the directly the fault of the website. The people at the website did have good communication in helping to figure out why it wasn't shipping."
"The items arrived at the scheduled time. I have purchased these before and am very happy with them. The only thing I did not know and had to do research on was the chirp that an old one that I had continued to do. I didn't know the item was worn out and no longer preforming the way it should and that it why it chirped. (Things the package does not tell you). "
"Firstly, the buying experience is fantastic. Easy web navigation and easy accessibility. The equipment itself is good because the installation is automatic . As a buyer you don't need instrument to install the smoke detector, just take it out from the box and plug it."
"Product item delivered quickly, even though it was during the Christmas season. I was replacing a unit which had worn out and am totally satisfied with the replacement unit"
"Thanks, good price and fast shipping"
