The Consumer Products Safety Commission web site (cpsc.gov) lists quite a variety of brand names for which Kidde manufactured the extinguisher. Both Kidde's and the CPSC web sites have a chart listing the affected brands and models. They all feature plastic nozzles or valve mechanisms. Kidde will replace the extinguisher for free, though it takes 6-8 weeks to receive. (or possibly it will take 6-8 weeks to ship. Can you imagine what Kidde's going through, potentially replacing every basic level product they've made in the last 40 years?) In any case, you do not need to send in your old extinguisher--keep it "in case", until you get the new one. And, as always, locate the extinguisher so you have an exit behind you if you have to use it on a fire. i.e. between the back door and the stove, or between the basement door and the furnace, or maybe simply put it by an exit door, then you've always got a way out.
