Emergency Fire Blanket Kit

I hope I'll never have to write a review as to how this product actually works but so far so good. I've attached it just below a cork board hanging inside the pantry door in the kitchen. Every member of the family has had a turn at lifting up the velcro top flap and having the blanket fall out and down. As mentioned in other reviews it is folded over lengthwise several times to get it to fit vertically in the bag and then also once unfolded it needs to be unfolded four times in the other direction. It almost takes two people to get it back in the bag once its mounted. Much easier to get it back in when the bag is flat on a table.The bag and blanket seem to be of good quality. I'm not sure if the blanket is treated with anything or if it is just meant to smother. It's fairly thick so I guess it will do a good job of smothering and covering.I found this online and while it wasn't written for this exact product it has some good information about fire blankets and their use:------A Fire Blanket is a highly flame-resistant blanket that can be used to either extinguish a small fire or to wrap around a person. They are made from 2 layers of woven glass fibre fabric and an inner layer of fire retardant film. They work by cutting off the oxygen supply (oxygen is one of the three elements that a fire needs to burn) and smothering the fire.HOW TO USE A FIRE BLANKETFirstly, and most importantly turn off the gas or electricity supply.Remove the fire blanket from its containerTo prevent burns on the hands and arms, make sure you wrap the top edges of the blanket around your hands to protect them.Roll up your sleeves so they do not catch in the flames.Carefully cover the flames with the fire blanket, making sure that you cover the whole area so that you can effectively cut off the airflow and extinguish the flames.However, If the fire is larger than the blanket, do not attempt to put it out. GET OUT and call the fire brigade immediately.DO NOT touch the fire blanket or anything underneath it until at least an hour has passed since the fire was extinguished.Fire Blankets can also be used when exiting a burning building, wrap it around yourself for added protection if there are flames between you and the exit.SAFETY TIPSEnsure that everyone knows where the fire blanket is stored and knows how to remove the blanket from its canister should you ever need it. It is also recommended that an identification sign is displayed alongside the blanket.-----

Excellent and well-designed breakaway covering with a professional quality blanket inside. The best Quality and design I have found, and also much cheaper than others

Exactly what I needed to meet OSHA standards for my science classroom. Great quality and best price on the market.

Have not had to use, but looks well made and arrived on time and for a good price.

Too big. I wanted a galley blanket suitable for a range top fire. This blanket was returned since it was as big as a full bed blanket. I ate the return postage of $15.
