Nearly half a million smoke alarms are being recalled because of an issue that compromises the alarm's ability to detect smoke.
The Kidde dual-sensor alarms were sold for between $20 and $40 from September 2016 to January 2018. They were sold on Amazon and at Walmart, The Home Depot, Menards, and other home and hardware stores.
