[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This lock was easy to install and a little confusing to program. Eventually got it to work. Now it works great.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased / installed twice past 2 years that make our family much easier to operate and maintain to access doors.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using this smart deadbolt for a few weeks now, and I’m genuinely impressed.
What I love most is the convenience. I can lock and unlock my door remotely from my phone, which has been a lifesaver when guests arrive early or I forget to lock up at night. The auto-lock feature gives extra peace of mind, and the app sends alerts whenever the door is accessed.
The keypad is responsive and easy to use, and the build quality feels solid—no cheap plastic here. It integrates smoothly with my smart home system (Alexa/Google Home), so I can even lock the door with a voice command.
Battery life seems strong so far, and the app gives you a heads-up when it's getting low, so you’re never caught off guard.
Overall, this smart deadbolt has added a whole new level of security and convenience to my home. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to upgrade their home’s front-line protection without the hassle.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the perfect lock. We had an August lock and had major issues in the winter and with the mechanical locking. This one no issues so far and it is so quiet.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These locks work great for the most part, we have and use about 20 of them. The app is sometimes glitchy and we have one that perpetually pops off the Wi-Fi then won’t reconnect until we do it manually BUT we love them overall. So easy. Highly recommend.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Been using this lock for the last three years. Great battery life, easy to connect to Apple HomeKit, works great with Apple express entry keys
