One more item of note and an important one. Some of our wonderful new items utilize plastic components to save weight and also ease the manufacturing costs, weight and end consumer price. Wonderful for many products, not wonderful for an extinguisher. YOU want METAL, especially in the handle. There is NO comparison in this. You go and grab that plastic handled unit and apply pressure and it doesn't work or breaks, well . . . your mind can work as well as mine. One more important thing. This is a 5 lb. unit where most are 3 lbs. or less. It's pretty easy to decide. This is for my and my families safety, I am not going to "cheap out" on this item and truthfully, neither should you.
