[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was so easy to install I did it all by myself! Now I am going to install one for my sister! Great video quality and such clear pictures on my cell phone. Love that I can be anywhere and still feel safe that my home is secured. Amazing product with such ease of use.. I would say yes if you asked me if you should get one.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The camera wires in quickly and easily to existing door bell. Very simple even for the less handy home updaters. Really nice to be able to see who's at the door any given time. Really nice turn key solution for front door safety and security
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Smart doorbells are taking the residential world by storm and I actually utilize one currently at my house. My girlfriend lives in an apartment complex and I thought this would be great for her as they coincidentally have been having some package theft in their building. The set up did take a little while but was all in all simple enough for me to do one evening. Camera functions well and picks up motion sensing but more importantly to me it acts as a great deterrent. It's very obviously to tell that you are on camera when approaching the door and hopefully this will keep people out who shouldn't be around.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Energizer Connect Smart Video Doorbell with Wireless Chime is a great product and works great! I have been looking for a product like this and I am very happy with how this one works! It is very easy to install, set up and use. It's great for seeing who is at the door before I answer it and also see who is there when I'm away. Again, very easy to use and gives me that piece of mind when I'm not home.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This a good product if you are looking for a little more security around the house. It was easy to set up if you are somewhat handy around the house. I don't love that it is hardwired would prefer battery operated just to make the setup easier. I had to replace the transformer for mine to work. But it may have been a bad transformer and nothing to do with the doorbell. The notifications are great and the app is easy to navigate. If you are looking for a good video doorbell without the big cost this is your doorbell. I was surprised by how much I like having the added security. Good work.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First the bad part, I had quite a bit of trouble getting this doorbell connected to my wireless internet. The issue was it needed to be connected to 2.4 ghz and it even though I had 2.4ghz available it kept trying to coonect to 5 ghz. I had to connect to my router and disable the 5 ghz and then it was able to connect. I wouldn't have minded this so much if I would have known that I needed to do this from the beginning because it wasn't that difficult for me to do, but having to research and figure out the solution was a little frustrating. That said, if any not very tech savvy person ran into this problem it might be more than they could handle.
The good part, once that little bit of unpleasantness was taken care of, the rest of the set up and installation was a breeze and the camera works great. I chose to use the wireless chime so I didn't have to worry about the mechanical chime. My brother did install the mechanical sign and said it was a piece of cake.
If you think you can handle the potential issue with the 2.4 vs 5 ghz installation then I think this is a great camera. If you aren't very tech savvy you might want to look for a different camera.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the sense of security I get from this video doorbell. It flags any movement and alerts me when somebody comes through the camera and I know having the camera is already a big deterrant. There is also such a nice wide camera angle, it gets everything in clear picture and to my phone!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We really love that we bought this doorbell. It provides us the security we need and allows us to feel safe we're not home or when we're not expecting anyone at our door. My fiance likes it especially.
