    Absolutely the worst doorbell. I bought this almost 2 years ago. It constantly goes offline or dfoes not record at all. the audio never works and the numerous times I have called Arlo support they always have an excuse, it's my internet, my router or whatever reason they can come up with to not honor or fix their product.

    Works well if you already have an Arlo system, plugs right in and has good alerts and qualities. One drawback is the angle setting, I wish it were more angled so that I could hardwire it to my home chime and still get the similar view and angle.

    Don't buy if you have a 5G other than that it works just well with a 2.4 but if you move they're worthless because you can't use them any longer in the support with the company will not help you

    Installed the Wire Free version on a new home that we are in the process of moving into but not staying at full time. It has enabled us to see when packages are received at the new home and saving us unnecessary trips to pick up packages that were supposed to be delivered but have not shown up yet.

    I got this product to record a neighbor whose dog leaves pee stains outside my door. The device did record it but it only captured part of the event which was good enough for the property manager but it would have been nice to campfire more of the beginning.

    This was easy to actually install but the set up is not user freindly. Beware that it calls your phone when someone pushes it. Gets really annoying. Ended up returning.

    I really liked the ease of the wire free doorbell. It installed and went on line with my wifi with no problems. The only thing is the battery doesn't last as long as I thought and you have to recharge it frequently if you use it a lot.
