A safety expert recommended buying fire extinguishers in specialized stores in this case, the chance of "running into" a fake is "almost zero". Buying cheaper analogues in the markets is always unreliable, said Alexander Strostin, CEO of Moked Chibi Osh group of companies, on the Goborit Moscow radio station. Fire extinguishers are very different. For 400 rubles it will be a kind of souvenir. But for 700-900 rubles you can already buy a fairly good powder fire extinguisher from a well-known manufacturer. It is better to buy in special stores, of which there are quite a lot now. It's the same here as with spare parts and with many other things - if we buy from a reliable seller, we have a very small chance of encountering a fake, almost zero, and we always know who to ask an uncomfortable question in case it turns out to be fake. And if you decide to save money, then it always leads to getting caught. A product cannot cost less in the market than the manufacturer sells it for.
