No, I would not recommend this to a friend Arlo Essential Camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The item works very well and I really like the spotlight feature. The picture clarity is fantastic. The charging time seems to take a long time and sometimes has to be plugged in numerous times before the charging is successful. Overall the item is well priced and a very efficient product.

Security Camera
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super sensitive and I didn't realize that before I left for a trip. You can set it to be less sensitive. The battery went dead in a short amount of time since it was turning on so often, so it didn't work for our whole trip. Sad.

Not a good deal.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased the Arlo before it came with the home base ,which saved your history however this one doesn’t and they try to get you to sign up for a subscription. Which isn’t a good idea.

Installation Issue with Mesh Router Sync.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The camera is well made and of good quality. The installation process is pretty straight forward. Unfortunately, the camera would not sync with my Deco mesh router. I had to return the device for a refund. Information about the device pre-purchase suggests that it sometimes has difficulty with some types of routers including mesh. Can't comment of the quality since I never got to use it.
