I woke up late one morning and decided that I wanted to make macaroni and cheese for breakfast (because I’m an adult and have free will and can do that if I want to). So while running around trying to get ready for work, I turned the stove top on. It smelled funky so I figured there was something on the drip pan from a previous meal, but I didn’t think anything of it. So as I’m packing my lunch across the kitchen, my stove caught fire. I removed the pot from the burner, turned off the stove, and then grabbed the fire blanket because the flame wasn’t dying out on its own. I placed it over the burner and just as quickly as it started, it was over. Now can I say for a FACT that the fire blanket prevented my building from burning down? No. But I can say for a fact that I didn’t have to keep waiting to see if the flame would go out on its own, I didn’t have to wait and see if it would melt the back of my stove, and/or potentially catch my cabinets on fire. As I was already frazzled and running behind that morning, the fire blanket was easy enough to use and so effective that I was able to use it within 10 minutes of rolling out of bed, still half asleep. What could have been an incredibly dangerous situation turned into a joke I was making with my boss half an hour later at work (so easy to use I didn’t even bother using the fire as an excuse to call out of work. And trust me, I was looking for a reason).
I had received this fire blanket as a gift from my parents and I can only imagine the relief they experienced as they opened their texts at 7AM to find a text joking about my morning with a picture of the blanket over the stove attached. That could have very well been a very different text I sent that morning.
Maybe you buy this blanket for yourself or a loved one and it never gets used (just like an outfit or a kitchen gadget we swore we would get so much use out of and now sits in the back of a closet or cabinet somewhere, never actually being used). But MAYBE you buy it and it saves a life, a home, a pet, etc. Maybe you never need it and you get to call it a waste of money. Maybe you use it and it becomes one of the best purchases you’ve ever made. It’s better to have and not need than need and not have, right? I received this as a gift and felt so strongly about it that I actually reached out to customer support to see how I could leave a review for it. I highly recommend this item to anybody considering it (and even anybody not considering it, honestly).
