    Helmet is Great. Goggles are Horrible

    Posted by Frost Pauli on Feb 25th 2025

    I love my Phenix First Due. It is the most comfortable helmet I have ever worn. I HATE the new goggles they are selling them with though. Please switch back to ESS goggles. I recently purchased 12 new Phenix helmets for our department, then turned around and replaced all of the goggles with ESS. The rubber goggles they came with were completely useless.

    Great Helmet

    Posted by Verified Buyer on Jul 1st 2024

    I have used this type of helmet for 3 different departments, one of which I worked for 34 years. This helmet never failed. Not in heat or head blow. I was involved in a roof collapse that ultimately cost me my career. I would recommend this helmet to anyone.

    Phenix 1500

    Posted by Verified Buyer on Jun 11th 2017

    I bought this helmet to use for suppression instructing and I must say I was disappointed. It is super light weight which is why I bought it in the first place but as you progress from none live-fire evolutions to live-fire evolutions you begin to see where the weight was cut... First the shell is so thin the heat is transferred right through to the impact ring which then starts to shrink and melt. The second issue I experienced was the the suspension liner kept becoming detached from the helmet shell which caused one of the suspension attachment clips to be exposed to high heat and melt, now the liner wont go back in the helmet. This is all very disheartening as I have used other more traditional helmets and they have held up fine. IF YOU ARE LOOKING TO USE THIS HELMET FOR INTERIOR FIRE SUPPRESSION INSTRUCTING, I RECOMMEND SOMETHING ELSE. I must disclose I purchased this helmet from another supplier but that supplier does not allow product reviews. I'm reviewing here because TheFireStore seems to receive a fair amount of traffic.

    I would buy another one if need.

    Posted by Verified Buyer on May 28th 2015

    I have no complaints on this product. The reason I bought another one is I needed a different color. My old one has held up excellent.

    Helmet bubbles & melts on interiors

    Posted by Verified Buyer on Sep 23rd 2014

    Been using this helmet for about a year now. Department bought these to save a few nickles and dimes. I would only recommend this helmet for tech use. Do not use this product for interior firefighting. Does not have an impact cap, the thermoplastic is thin. I have personally seen one of these helmets bubble in a fire, that is not what I want protecting my head. But on the other side, for use as a tech helmet, wildland, or usar type helmet this would be great because its so light. Thats the only pro.

    Not suitable for structure fires.

    Posted by Verified Buyer on Aug 28th 2013

    I do not trust this product for interior use. It sits high and back on my head when wearing my mask; causing the tail to sit on my tank. That is with the suspension adjusted. The suspension is just a drawstring and fabric straps. Also, there is no impact cap. Just a thin foam pad between my head and the shell. The tail is not long enough to protect your neck.
