Well, I finally went and did it. My remaining EVACU8 smoke head just reached its expiration date so in the trash it went. My circumstances are quite different now than when I first bought these smoke hoods (living in NYC, taking subways, spending lot's of time in high rises, seeing the Twin Towers burn vs suburban life now) so I haven't decided if I will replace them yet, but I was wondering if anyone had bought the Safe Escape smokehood? That seems to be the most effective replacement in the same price range to the EVACU8. I'd be curious to hear any firsthand comments about it. Thanks!
