Buckeye 13315 ABC Multipurpose Dry Chemical Hand Held Fire Extinguisher with Aluminum Valve and Vehicle Bracket, 2.5 lbs Agent Capacity

I haven't had to use this yet so fair warning to those wanting an after-use review. Hopefully I won't ever need to use it. But I bought this Buckeye extinguisher so I can mount it inside my truck. It's mounted on a br"Bracketeer" seat bracket. I will update this review if it leaks or any other new developments are found.I went with Buckeye cause its supposed to have a good reputation within the community and I believe they use a metal inner tube/valve which is important for vehicle mounted applications. Kiddie is notorious for being garbage because of their plastic inner tubes and valves, which caused recalls. So I steer clear from kiddie. The Buckeye came brand new in a glued manufacturers box with 09/18/18 stamped as date of manufacture (I bought this 10/05/18) so that's awesome that it's brand new stock. It came with a wall mount that fit my seat bracket perfectly. Not really much else to say about this extinguisher. Feels well built as opposed to the cheaper first alert/kiddie stuff. Oh and it has a metal handle/lever. All better than plastic.

Very nice extinguisher made of quality parts. This thing looks bullet proof. This is going in my Jeep Gladiator this weekend.

Very high quality and strong bracket. Installed in a Ford F59 stepvan.

I put one of these in my small pickup. Perfect size to fit in front of the passenger seat and it doesn’t get in the way when someone sits there

This is a nice looking heavy duty extinguisher however mine came nearly empty. AND IS NOT RETURNABLE!!!!!!!!!! Have emailed the vender and will change my review if they resolve the issue.Update: After emailing the vendor I was immediately contacted and a new Fire Extinguisher was shipped. I have received the new FE and it appears to be fine. It fits in my truck nicely and I am now happy with the purchase.Changed my rating to 4 stars but 5 stars for customer service!This is a very nice fire extinguisher as I have said above but I am concerned with its reliability since the first one was empty.

This item was recommended by a fire protection professional/firefighter. For the peace of mind, the value for the money is nothing. Highly recommend for your vehicle, home or boat!

25June20: Driving home, I noticed a car on the shoulder. There were two people beside the car; its hood opened. Driving past, I assumed they were experiencing minor engine trouble. Then my rear view mirror began reflecting an orange glow, their engine bay had caught on fire and it was growing quickly. This fire extinguisher has been transferred from 3 different vehicles, taken aboard many fishing trips, and has been handled roughly since November 2018. Today was the day I needed it most; to help this family from having their car completely engulfed. I stopped, grabbed the extinguisher from the trunk, recalled my training, and placed 100% faith on the extinguishers serviceability. It performed flawlessly and successfully. I’m very happy that I could help a family of strangers and for the reliability of this product. I will be purchasing again.

I was unfortunate to see a very bad accident and hardly anyone in the long line of cars and campers had a fire extinguisher, myself included. I came home that day and researched fire extinguishers. This guy had high reviews. I bought one for everyone on my team and my mom. They are hefty with out being to bulky or heavy to use. Metal pieces not plastic. I feel better knowing my team has one on board.
