Customer Ratings & Reviews

I think it is ok wish we could talk and listen too looking Quality is Good

Great cameras and I bought them at the best price you can get them anywhere. Best Buy even had a better price than Costco

I only bought to catch license plates driving by. The box says something about 50-150' or something? I forget. But the camera is less than 50' away from the road directly facing a plate and it doesn't get a clear picture on it, therefore making it basically worthless to me. But I didn't know it was falsely advertised until After my returnable date. Naturally.

Didn’t install but did do my research and I’ll definitely be buying this product in the future

I prefer these over a wireless. Internet is not great in my area so wireless cameras don’t work for me.

Pros Nice picture quality, so far so good ,nice night vision, Cons slow notifications in the phone (3 min delayed)

Great product. Outside the hard drive issue, it’s easy to use.

I can see everything. If you got something worth protecting, then these are the way.

Very Pleased with this system. Great value over wireless cams and quality vision

Awesome system for keeping an eye on your place! Love the fact that I have 4 different cameras.

Great camera but far is not so clear, the price is not bad.

Grest system it will let the people know to not come on the property

Opening the box, I was excited to see how well this security system was going to perform. It includes the DVR unit with 8 available channels and a 2 TB hard drive, 4 cameras, HDMI cable, power adapter, 4 60’ camera cables and a mouse for maneuvering the setup screen. It is a complete kit and I didn’t need to buy or find any additional items to install the system. So, the first thing I did was set up the unit in my den with my 55” 4k tv. The manual states to connect everything and ensure it works before setting it up in its permanent spot. Once connected, everything was working great except the DVR fan is really loud. In fact, it’s so loud I thought it was defective. I went online and Googled Lorex loud fan and there were a lot of links and videos available. Apparently, this is a common problem with many of the models. Some recommend taking the housing off and others are trying different 40mm fans. Sorry to go on a bit with it, but it’s the only con I found and the reason for the 4 stars. It required me to pick a different location to install the DVR and that’s in a cabinet in the garage. I ended up running Cat 6e through the wall and into a 5-port switch just for the system. Okay, enough of that, now the good stuff. The software just works. I set it up when I first installed it in the den. Once it was connected in the garage, all I needed to do was log in. I also downloaded the Android app and it too works as I expected it to. You can view each camera independently in portrait or landscape mode and a quick swipe of the finger left or right takes you to the next camera. Once the DVR was connected to the tv I ran the camera cables down the garage to decide on their placement. If you have a partner, it makes this easier as they can watch the big screen while you’re up on the ladder. I used the phone app and a number of trips up and down the ladder to decide on the placement. The picture looks really good on the tv and phone. I have a two-car driveway and I’m able to see my truck on the far side as well as the walkway up to the door with one camera. My mailbox is across the street and 3 houses up. I can’t see it very well, but it is visible it the top left corner. I’ve had a few mailbox thefts and at least this would show the type of vehicle used. I live on a corner lot so one of the other cameras might get a better shot of the car as will my existing Arlo setup. Once all the cameras were positioned, then the hard part of drilling and fishing the cables through the attic began. Luckily when I remodeled some parts of the house, I have wall chases that don’t have obstructions in them, so I can just use a short fish to pull the cables to the DVR. I also have a long HDMI cable that I ran to the den 4K tv if I want to view it there. Otherwise the 1080P in the garage will do just fine. Now that it’s connected and up and running, I’m very pleased with the system. Again, my only complaint is the fan noise. I have a chest freezer and a refrigerator in the garage and this DVR is louder than either of them. I’m sure I’ll be looking for a fix in the near future. I’ll also be in the market for additional cameras. I’d like to get a dome cam to mount by the front door. It’s nice the DVR has 4 additional channels to allow for expansion. So that about sums it up for me. The software was easy to use, the instructions both part 1 for install and part 2 for the Android app were very informative and the system performs as well as I expected such a system to perform. If you can live with the loud noise or you are technically able to try and reduce it, I’d definitely recommend the Lorex line of security cams.

Great product. Easy to use. Would recommend this to anyone!
