    Works like a charm. I can see the door from anywhere, use the two way talk from my phone or tv. Works with my Alexa and if I ask it to show me the front door from the tv, it does. Pair with a Chime or two and you can hear the doorbell from anywhere in the house, too.

    Easy to install, I did it by myself. This a great gadget to monitor who is in your front door. It is also helpful to track your kids when they are back home. I would like to see more real time images but I guess that’s related to the house internet speed.

    Easy to install, preformed as advertised, after the 30 day free period we ended up purchasing the cloud, as we were unsure how much we would like it from other reviews. I love getting the notifications sent to my phone and being able to communicate with the people while away from home.

    this "thing" served it's purpose, I haven't paid for the subscription because I have Arlo too, but I can answer the bell with this. I would buy a different brand now, at the time this was the best of what was available.

    Good product but the screws at the bottom wear out and extra should be included in the kit. Good visual but had to adjust the motion and I actually purchased one for my back door as well. Easy install and configuration

    It was easy to assemble. But make sure you charge it first. The only thing I do not like is the delay. When notification is activated, it's not until they are close to it & when you click on answer, you have to go back to see what set it off.

    We purchased this Ring Video Doorbell for our Grandmother and we love it It's a very simple installation, just screw the two existing doorbell wires to the back of the new doorbell and secure it to the house. Then connected to the Wi-Fi and it was up and running within 30 minutes.

    I purchased another brand of video doorbell and spent two days along with my neighbor attempting to make it work. I gave up and went to Best Buy to look for an alternative and they recommended the Ring... wow it took 20minutes to install and has been excellent. I highly recommend the Ring device.

    So this is the older model. Could not pass on the price. It works good. You just have to be careful of how active your settings are for recording. Eventhough it is wired, the battety can drain down and then it will not function until it charges back up.

    Bought this because my interior cameras kept seeing my dog barking at the front door but could never figure out what it was. It makes you pay fo you to be able to see alerts through the day but 30.00 a year isn't bad for what you get.

    This was simple to set up and worked right away. The only complaint is the battery life is not as long as the Ring claims; although, I have my parameter set wide. Also, the range is NOT as long as I hoped. I had to buy a wifi extender to stop this from happening as often as it did.

    Just what we were looking for. Installation was fairly easy. It serves our purpose wonderfully. We have found ourselves using all the time and makes us feel that much more safe. Knowing that we have an alert when someone or any kind of motion is at our front door!! Great purchase!!!

    I've been using the Ring doorbell for over 6 months now and it has worked out great for me. I didn't have the luxury of hooking it up to existing doorbell wiring and the lack of live video feed on the battery option is disappointing. Otherwise, the motion detection is great and generates very few false positives.
