Security
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this item as an add on to our current system. These cameras are very good for indoor and outside use. The only time they fail is when the temperature drops into the well below zero for an extended time and even then they begin working again as the sun comes out and warms them up a bit.

Ripe off
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This arlo camera does not allow to record unless you pay for subscription. Had to override the sensor to use the other camera to have recording of motion detection. You can only view present time and cannot record unless monthly subscribtion.

BAD QUALITY and DOES NOT RECORD, DISCONNECTS A LOT
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bad bad bad overall. The cameras stopped recording the day after. They are next to the router...well, one of them is. Also, it is supposed to record continuous activity for a few minutes but it only records a few seconds and then stops and does not show activity for hours. It works weird and is NOT RELIABLE. I would suggest a different brand. I am returning mine.

Worth it
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We do not live in the best area. We have the old 2nd generation of arlo camera before these. I was over joyed to find out that we found use both. Love the light makes everything nice and bright. Because of the foot traffic it is used a lot. Got the solar panels and it is amazing!

Fast battery depletion
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These cameras don't have a ling battery shelf. If you have a high traffic area you are better off using wired cameras. The magnet used to keep them up are not food enough on a lower area because anyone can knock them down and take them.
