DIBBATU Fire Blanket Emergency for Kitchen, Suppression Flame Retardent Safety Blanket for Home, Schooll, Fireplace, Grill, Car, Office, Warehouse (39 in X 39 in)

Very good blanket

Nicely packed and with perfect instructions of how to use.

This is a difficult item to review because you hope to never actually use it. It arrived on time. I like that it is a 2-pack, because I will take one to my summer cottage, and keep the other at my year-round home. It seems to be well made. The price was reasonable. It comes with clear, easy to understand instructions. It is well designed for an emergency. the instructions are printed right on the front of it, so that if you panic, you can see what to do. You hang it up in an easy to access location, and in an emergency, you just pull the straps and it pops out for instant use. A good idea for general household safety that everyone should have.

El producto se ve bien así como viene empaquetado, y afortunadamente así sigue y no puedo opinar sobre cómo funciona, esperemos que así siga.

Kitchen fires are common and usually start small, like in a frying pan. But nearby combustibles like dishtowels, cabinets, or even a greasy exhaust hood can quickly turn a small fire into something with the potential to cause a lot of damage or great bodily harm. Oil and grease fires just flare up if water is used on them and fire extinguishers have to be of the correct type, charged, and directed properly to control a fire. Fiberglasss fire blankets are an inexpensive, easy-to-use and reuse, and very effective way to put out small fires. This blanket measures about 39”x39”, which is a good size to keep in the kitchen or garage. It comes in a bright red nylon pouch with pull tabs to quickly remove and deploy the fire blanket. I like that the front side of the nylon pouch has a 3-step set of instructions on it, which is better than some other brands of these types of blankets where the instructions are printed on the back of the pouch. At any rate, I’ve asked everyone in my house to become familiar with the location of the fire blankets in my home and how to use them. The pouch has a metal grommet to use as a hanger and I hang one inside one of my kitchen cabinet doors about 3 paces away from the stove. The blanket, as mentioned previously, is made of fiberglass. Rubbing my fingers over the blanket, I do see that a very small amount of fiber particles can come off onto your hand, but it’s not much. And that was with me intentionally rubbing the material with my fingers, which you wouldn’t do to use it on a fire. Some of the fire blankets for sale come with gloves to protect your hands from fibers and I’d say skip it: I think the time it takes to put on gloves gives a small fire a chance to flare up into something too big for a fire blanket, so getting the blanket onto the fire quickly should be the priority. I’ve purchased three of these types of blankets from different sellers and they all seem to be similar in construction and quality so, here on Amazon, find one with the best price and you’re likely to be fine. This blanket is a good one to buy and the price was right at the time I ordered it. Whichever brand you choose, a fire blanket should be part of every home’s or office’s safety gear.
