Water Sensor
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I haven't had to use this sensor yet but I have it set by my water heater for when the unexpected happens. I have been impressed with the Simplisafe alarm system so I don't have any reason to doubt this water sensor.
I would recommend this to a friend Connects as expected
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This sensor connects as expected to my base station
I would recommend this to a friendSimpliSafe Water Sensor
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This water sensor for the SimpliSafe seems to work well. It gives me piece of mind to let me know if something in the house springs a leak when not at home.
I would recommend this to a friendSimple sophistication
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you have a water heater or relatively silent sump pump and want 24/7 coverage, then this water sensor is a viable option. Early detection may not prevent damage, but an inexpensive sensor like this can easily save you $$$ should a water-event occur.

I would recommend this to a friendMust have the System
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I did not realize that these only work with the SimpliSafe sysgem. It is not a stand alone alarm
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot working
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It does not seem to work; if you place it on the floor in water, shouldn’t the alarm go off?
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Michelle
Posted .Sorry to hear about your experience! We should really check that the sensor's battery is working properly and it's actually powered on, as well as properly connected to the SimpliSafe Base Station. If you still have the sensor, give us a call at 800-548-9508 and we'll troubleshoot.
Couldn’t use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Couldn’t get to use it. It should be labeled with the necessary pre-requisites.

Posted .Sorry to hear that you had trouble. This Water Sensor is part of the complete SimpliSafe home security system, and you do need to pair it with a Base Station to function.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Poorrrrrr quality first time, i don't recommend this fore nobody
No, I would not recommend this to a friendAbsolute must have for home owners
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have one of these already & it’s been a financial life saver because we have a water heater downstairs & a hvac heater in the attic that can possibly overflow with water which could damage our ceilings. These sensors go off at the slightest contact wiith water. These are an absolute must have.

Saved my Christmas, almost a year later!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Never thought I'd need one of these, but it came in a bundled configuration during Christmas 2019. One year later, my alarm starts chattering something and my phone rings. Simplisafe is confirming that my Water Sensor in my Laundry Room is going off. Had I not known my Samsung Washer was leaking, the moment water got beneath it, damage could have been much worse. I was shocked how little water was on the floor that set it off. And this sensor was one I had totally forgotten about, yet am the most thankful for thus far. Dried it off and put it back into use the same day.
I would recommend this to a friend Give peace for homeowner
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the design and the way it works. It requires additional devices and/ or services for monitoring and support. Product is great!

SimpliSafe water Sensor
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed to replace my water sensor in a hurry. Great to be able to pick it up locally from Best Buy.
I would recommend this to a friend water sensor false alarms
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have had SimpliSafe system for about 5 month and one of the water sensors has gone off 6-8 times and all were false alarms. Not fun in the middle of the night or when you are out of town.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Michelle
Posted .Sorry to hear about that! The Water Sensor works when a conducting substance (usually water) connects the metal contacts on the bottom of the unit. It's possible that if the ground that it's on is uneven, and the surface is wet, that could be causing the false alarms. Or there might be some condensation happening as well. We would suggest wiping down the underside of those sensors with a paper towel, and perhaps moving them to a slightly different spot.
