[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased this to replace a Schlage keypad deadbolt. Very easy to install, love the long screws for the strike plate. Connected immediately with Alexa and Ring. Love naming personalized codes so we can see who is going in and out.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn't know how great this lock would be until I connected it to my Airbnb host account. It randomly creates a code for each guest and disables it automatically at checkout. I know when anyone locks or unlocks the door. I can easily mange the lock remotely. Easy to replace existing deadbolt and handle myself.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After owning the previous version of this lock which was terrible and shorted out after 2 years of on and off working, this new wifi lock is so much better. Having only been using this for a month, I will not give a rave review, as the old deadbolt worked great for about 6 months. I love the upgrades of wifi connection instead of home hub. Now I can see the battery life and change the batteries before it stops working and locks us out. I still hide a key. I like that I can open the door with my phone to let someone into the house without giving them a code. The big change over the old one is that the battery pack design is so much better. The old snap style is what burnt out the touch pad. Now the drop in battery pack is very easy to connect. Still would like to see a rechargable battery like Ring instead of AA batteries. So far I really like this new wifi connected deadbolt but need to use it longer to give a full yes on recommending it to a friend, due to the troubles I had with the last deadbolt.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a nice looking lock. Wish the battery housing was also color matched to the rest of the lock. In addition, there is no Z-Wave compatibility with this model. Disappointing.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Recently installed this beautiful smart deadbolt and handle set to my new front door. It works like a dream and offers convenience for guests without having too many keys floating around with the fear of them getting lost. I should have purchased one sooner! Now I need a second for my other door.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have installed three. The product has improved over the 4 years I have had them as ease of installation, app features. It is a great quality lock that I can use away from home. I love that I can set it to auto lock. I never have to worry about losing or forgetting my key again!
