Yup. It works!
Of course you never want to use something like this but I knew that we needed one in our new condo just in case. I was right! I was toasting taco shells in our large toaster and looked away for a moment- the smoke billowed first and then it caught fire fast. Certainly on the greasy-fire side because of the oil on the shells. They were LIT. My husband grabbed the device, aimed and sprayed for about 5 seconds. He stopped and I barked for him to do it again- it caught one more time. There’s no way I would have been able to toss a blanket up there and a real extinguisher would have left the biggest mess. This was easy to clean up! Don’t delay- buy it. (To note, we took someone’s Amazon advice and put a black Sharpie arrow on the top to show the direction of the spray- excellent idea- no thinking necessary!
