The iGuardFire works perfectly! My gas plumber was easily able to install the solenoid valve, as well as mount the control unit to the underside of a kitchen cabinet. The unit doesn't even need to be connected to the internet; it's ready to go once you connect the ethernet cable that links the control unit and the solenoid valve. You can clearly and distinctly hear the valve open and close, so you know with absolute certainty what the valve position is. All you have to do is press the left-most button on the control unit that engages the "Start" command displayed on the LCD display, and the valve opens up. Press that same button to engage the "Stop" command, which displays after the valve is open. Best of all, the proximity sensor works great and has indeed shut off the solenoid valve whenever I was away from the stove for more than 5 minutes. This device has really taken a load off my mind because I cook all my meals first thing in the morning prior to going to my place of employment, so I sometimes wondered in the recent past whether or not I shut off the burners. Now that I have the iGuardFire, I don't even think about it anymore. I know it's quite an expensive device, but I'm truly glad I made the investment. One point of advice: make absolutely certain you know the size of your gas line. Almost all houses in the USA use 1/2" line, so if in doubt when you're on the iGuard shopping page, choose the 1/2" size valve. Worst case, if it turns out you needed 3/4" you can just have your gas plumber install reducer fittings on both ends of the valve to rectify the problem. Hope this review helps!

I got tired of cleaning my Mom's nine burnt up pots and decided to look for a solution. Mom is in her nineties and has Dementia. I called around to some local appliance stores and asked if they knew of anything that would turn the stove off when my Mother walked away from it and that had no idea what I was wanting. I did an internet search and leave it to the clever Canadians to come up with this fantastic device. I'm handy so I installed it myself on my mothers gas stove and now I can sleep at nights. I like the fact that it sends me a text when she fires up the stove and that lets me know she is up and moving around. I also get a text when she walks away and has to do a restart on the stove and that can be multiple times. It can be programed many different ways and wasn't to hard to set up. I did have to call once and got great service on the phone and got my issue squared away. Very satisfied and it's been up and running for a year now. Thanks iGuard for coming up with this great devise. I did pass it on on my FB feed for those that have elder parents that are very forgetful.

This was the best product we found on the market. It gives our family peace of mind knowing that our parents are safe to cook in their home. This also allows for them to stay in their own home as they age. This product has so many amazing features that help to monitor movement in the home! I highly recommend this product to anyone who has aging parents that want to stay at home as long as they possibly can. Brenda

My Mom has (had!) a habit of turning the stove on High "for just a minute", but then falling asleep. Final straw was when we came home from the grocery store and found her asleep in her chair, dogs freaking out in the back yard, smoke alarm beeping its brains out and the house full of smoke. We got the iGuard a few years ago, and this device is awesome!! I cannot tell you how many times it has saved my sweet Mom from burning the house down! My sis and I can leave the house and not worry, and it even alerts us when she turns the stove on, or is wandering at night!! Get one! NOW!

Great product! While unfortunate, it is a common fact that many of us become forgetful and even confused as we age. My mother-in-law was no different, and would often leave things cooking. Sometimes, she would even turn on the wrong burner. She also had a habit of leaving wooden pot-warmers on top of the burners, because in her mind she was not using that burner. Many times, we would detect a "burnt" smell in her condo when we visited. This product was literally a life-saver. Easy to setup and manage remotely. My mother-in-law is in a nursing home now, and no longer gets near a stove. If you have loved ones that are starting to be forgetful or showing signs of confusion, I would highly, highly recommend you get this product.

This device gave us piece of mind, as my mother-in-law lived alone for a period of time, and her memory was starting to fail her. I was able to get the iGuardFire installed and configured without much of an issue, and the founder, Bill, is extremely friendly and helpful for any questions you might have. You can also configure alerts for yourself and family members as desired.

This device is perfect for aging parents who still live independently but can sometimes be forgetful. We’ve had some close calls in the past (lots of burnt pot bottoms), but thanks to this device the stove shuts off after 5 minutes of inactivity. One has to press a button to keep the stove on and because its conveniently located just next to the stove its not hassle at all if you’re already cooking. This device is worth every penny for the piece of mind it gives all of us. Originally purchased for the aforementioned feature but they have since updated the device’s firmware to utilize an infrared motion sensor that notifying me when someone enters the kitchen (usually first thing in the morning) with a Good Morning!, or when there’s been a period of motionless inactivity prompting me to check on them. Love this device. Can’t say enough about it. Customer service from Bill Ferguson is fantastic as well! If you’re thinking about it just get it!!!

I had the iGuardStove Intelligent model installed on my mother’s gas stove last year because of her Alzheimer’s. The protection that this device provides has allowed my mother to continue her greatest love … which is cooking for her children and grandchildren! The iGuardStove turns the stove off automatically if my mother leaves the kitchen for more than 5 minutes (which she often does because she is so used to multitasking … having raised 7 children). She has gotten used to having to remain in the kitchen to cook. This device has brought so much joy to my mother! We can honestly say that her quality of life has improved because of it! We also appreciate the feature of Night Lock, which prevents her from using the stove after hours (during bedtime). And we love the new feature called β€œActivity Monitor,” which allows us to monitor my mother’s activity in the kitchen through the built-in motion detector β€” this way, we can check if she is getting up during the night and wandering into the kitchen. By the way, I called Bill Ferguson on his cell phone because of a minor connection issue, and he cleared it up right away. Customer support is amazing!
