Had my doubts at the relatively low fire extinguisher, but which have all proved unfounded. The production date of the extinguisher is in June 2014 and I bought it on 1 August. The extinguisher is therefore new and not as with other quenchers already one to two years were stored (which indeed is rather suboptimal in fire extinguishers). The extinguisher is firmly seated in the included stand and the manometer indicates the the extinguisher has exactly the right pressure. So all in one a good buy!
