Amerex B500 ABC Dry Chemical Class A, B, and C Fire Extinguisher with 12 to 18 Feet Range and 14 Second Discharge Time (5 Lb, 2-Pack)

These are quality Fire extinguishers!! Very easy to mount on the wall with the included hardware.I wanted a larger size Fire Extinguishers for my home and this is perfect

I hope I never have to find out how good these are! What I actually purchased was "peace of mind." And THAT is worth every penny...right now! My biggest concern was that my tiny wife would be able to lift and use the fire extinguisher if necessary. She can handles these just fine, yet each one is large enough to put a dent in a well-developed flame.

Purchased this in March of 2022 after seeing a local home burn down on the news. I searched for Amerex specifically because these are the ones we used while I was in the Army and I have seen many Soldiers trust their lives to them. I realized I had smoke alarms, but nothing to stop it if it did happen. Mounted these on the wall and hoped I would never have to use them. March of 2023 I fired up my propane grill to preheat it for cleaning. The grill was up against the brick of my house. I let it heat up while making dinner for the family inside the home. My dog was out back and came barking to the door. I tried to let her in but she began barking furiously and took off out around the house. Not sure what was happening but knowing there was a problem, I followed. As I came around the side of the house I saw my grill engulfed in flames, and flames reaching up and licking the soffit. I ran inside and grabbed this fire extinguisher off the mount and headed back to the fire. I yanked the pin, aimed, and squeezed off a couple of burst, then cut off the propane. The fire was out, the side of the house was charred and the attic was filled with smoke, but crisis averted. This fire extinguisher saved our home. I intended to get the one I used refilled, but I got a new job a few months later and moved. Today I took the used one to a refill center to have filled. The man behind the counter said we do this thing where we take yours and swap it with a filled one, but yours is a really nice one so I bet you would rather wait to get it back. His manager came out and said I can swap it, I keep a brand new full one under my counter for just this occasion. He reached under the counter and handed me this exact same model. I am Amerex for life.

I'm happy to say that I can't review these Fire Extinguishers as I have not needed to use them. They were easy to hang on the wall and I get a lot of satisfaction in seeing them there and knowing that if I do ever need them, they will be within easy reach!

Had one in the kitchen, near the doorway for the outdoor grill. Sho' 'nuff, mother in law says "um.. the grill is on fire," to which I respond "hmmph. Probably just need to flip them chickenz..." Well, she was right. Them chicken's were engulfed in flame and she had already turned off the propane. Not sure what was burning at that point, but it was about to take our deck and maybe part of the house with it... so BOOM. Unleashed this fire extinguisher, and within seconds all fixed.Looks like a delicious mustard color now. I do not plan to, nor do I recommend eating this stuff. But very glad it saved us from any further damage or injury. I'll be buying again!

Nice extinguishers; missing mounting brackets.

A great product very happy hopefully never have to use

Nice size
