I'm looking for those with experience (positive or negative) with the CO Guardian brand units. Specifically, I'm curious as to reliability, false positives, true positives and longevity.

Thanks.

Doug: I recieved one as a gift and since we don't have a lot of cold wx. here it took a while to use it. It didn't work at all. Sent it back under warranty and they sent a new one.It didn't work at all either. They were all concerned and said to send it back also. I did, and a month later I have heard nothing.I wouldn't waste your money or really trust one.

I bought one of the portable units at OSH '05. It was a show special, listed as $20.00 less than normal price. I have not noticed any problems with the unit and it appears to function.

My only problem is that when I got home from the show and the charge showed up on my credit card, the guy had added a $20 "service charge" to the price, wiping out the show special "buy". Now, this service charge was not mentioned anywhere on his display at OSH, nor on the receipt. I disputed it with the cc company and ended up only paying the show special. I have a hard time trusting this guy, obviously.
