Doesn't Work As Advertised

on June 19, 2014

Posted by: ElectronicsNut

from Kenosha, WI

Got the Kevo deadbolt shortly after it was offered on BestBuy.com. Installed pretty much like any other deadbolt, you just have to make sure the antenna is placed correctly and not pinched.

I have 3 people in the house (including myself) with iPhone 5s's and everybody had major problems getting the lock to work as it should.

I've called Kevo support and literally taken the lock apart piece by piece to check for problems and put it back together. When we lock the door, we have to take out our phone and make sure the Kevo app is running in the foreground, put it 2 inches away from the lock and sometimes it will work.

The whole reason for getting this lock for me was to leave my phone and keys in my pocket and unlock it. Well, that doesn't happen.

Sometimes it will even lock itself when we have entered the room after having unlocked it with the key.

This is the most expensive dead bolt you'll ever buy. It will basically quit working and make you use your key anyways.

Do not recommend buying this lock, you'll be disappointed.

What's not so great: Price is very steep, operation of lock

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
