    easy to install & I called their support to ask a question regarding charging & they answered right away & gave me my answer. The app was easy to use & you get notified when people, animals, or motion occur. You can also talk to a person at your door.

    A great, cost effective wireless home security solution. The 2K quality is very detailed and streams well on our wifi regardless of placement. I like to have an overall view of our property which the arlo app allows you to watch multiple streams at once. Highly recommend, especially as they seem to be on sale relatively often.

    Works very well for the price point I bought it at, is it the best? No, but it works pretty well and I recommend it. Battery power is good unless it's in a high traffic area than it needs a charge once a week.

    Love Alro products. Used an older version for 8 years before the cameras stopped charging. The newer version is not as user friendly as the old, but I'm getting use to it. Battery life seems good for as much activity as I have on these new cameras.

    Does the job if you charge often

    Easy to install and app is pretty straightforward. A full charge lasts only about 3 weeks, so that puts me up and down a ladder in 4 locations (I am a 72 yr old female). Sometimes recognizes cars as animals! But, overall, does the job.

    I’m so impressed with this camera system! The setup was super simple, the picture quality is crystal clear day or night, and the wireless design makes it easy to place anywhere. I love being able to check in from my phone and get instant alerts when there’s movement. It gives me real peace of mind knowing my home is protected. Highly recommend!

    I really wanted to give this at least 4 stars but the battery life only last 3-5 days and that's without utilizing live mode or night vision with color. Otherwise, the other features and crystal clear video are both excellent!

    I received an Arlo essentials wireless camera several years ago as a Christmas present from my two sons and ever since I have been in love with it. Therefore this Christmas year I decided to upgrade my security around my home with a third generation wireless Arlo spotlight cameras. It has been the best experience one could ever imagine for the price My son's even installed the solar panels on each for me what a bargain I received during the holiday specials. Thanks Best Buys

    This is a really nice security set. It has enough cameras to use inside and outside to have all angles of the house covered and the yard sign is a nice addition. They are easy to install and use with the app
