    I purchased my Arlo Spotlight Camera with the idea of of ease installation, quality and use. The cameras works excellent and the viewing and recording software are easy to navigate which allows me enjoy my camera needs without difficulty or spending too much time. A wonderful product indeed and I highly recommend it. There are many competive camera systems on the market and after doing by research, I found Arlo products met all my surveillance and recording needs. I expect to buy more Arlo products.

    Because they’re wireless and the light flashes every time someone walks in front of it you have to charge the camera like every three days.

    Got 2 of these in late March 2021. 1 no longer works and the other is a headache (have to keep deleting it and reinstall installing it). Overall video quality is good and they are say to install. I like that I can set the alert zones to any size I want, any number of areas I want. Just wish they’d held up better. Not worth the money considering 1 died after about 10 months. Makes me wonder how long the other will last.
