Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the Alarm Smoke & CO Listener's ease of use and simple setup process, highlighting its seamless integration with the Ring alarm system. Many appreciate its compatibility with other detectors and its affordable price. However, some customers wish it had a built-in smoke alarm, clarifying that it functions as an extender for existing smoke detectors rather than a standalone unit.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged). Select reviewers may receive discounted products, promotional considerations or entries into drawings for honest, helpful reviews.

    This is NOT a carbon monoxide detector. It is a “listener” that works with your Ring system. This is not a substitution for a CO detector.

      Hello Mills1540,

      Thank you for leaving a review. Our top priority at Ring is to ensure that our customers have the best possible experience with our products. It is important to us that you have all the necessary information to ensure that your setup experience is seamless. We truly value your feedback, simply because it helps us improve the product from a consumer standpoint. Rest assured, we’re here to provide you with some information regarding device ownership and how Ring is protecting our neighbors by adding these safeguards.

      If you got a message saying that your Ring device is registered to someone else, this means at some point, another person started the setup process in the Ring app. If you purchased it from a retailer, you should return the device and request a replacement. Here is a helpful article that elaborates on this in more detail: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-au/articles/4403292609044-Device-still-registered-to-its-owner-error-during-setup.

      Additionally, if you have not already, please check out our Ring Community forum where other Ring users, like yourself, have an open discussion platform to share their experiences, as well as solutions to issues experienced: https://community.ring.com/.

    Not really like it much. I have a Nest smart Smoke alarm at home and I thought this Ring device is like this Nest. Unfortunately it is not. It still requires the regular smoke alarm installation and this Ring Alarm is installed next to it. This Ring device basically just sits, listens to the regular alarm and notifies Ring app if the regular smoke alarm sounds....how stupid this is....

      Hello yogocoola, Thank you for leaving a review. Our top priority at Ring is to ensure that our customers have the best possible experience with our products. I really appreciate your feedback. I can understand your disappointment. We are always striving to improve our products and their performance. The Ring Alarm Smoke & CO listener is a smart sound sensor for your Ring Alarm system. It works in tandem with one standard smoke or CO alarm (or smoke/CO combo alarm). Your Ring Alarm Smoke & CO listener works by listening for the sound of your smoke/CO alarms notifying you of a problem. When your alarm goes off, the listener will have your Ring Alarm system notify you of the problem, regardless of where you happen to be. In addition, if your Ring Alarm system is professionally monitored the monitoring center can also be notified and emergency responders dispatched to your home. If you would like to share any further feedback please visit our community forum at https://community.ring.com/, for some additional tips and support. We look forward to hearing from you. - All the Best, Jamila at Ring Ring
