    It was easy to open it up and add it to our existing system. Place it by the water heater so we will be saved from flooding if it fails.

    Small and easy to setup with your Simplisafe system. Just add to the base unit and place where needed. Placed where I wanted to be notified of any leaks and let them work. Not much to them.

    This sensor offers some pretty cheap peace of mind. Just set it on the floor next to your sump pump or water heater and you're ready to go - it's that easy! Better yet, it takes about a minute to add to your system. I tested mine by adding a small amount of water to the bottom of a bowl (just enough for the sensors to engage). I immediately (and simultaneously) received a notification call from SimpliSafe and thru the app.

    Provides peace of mind for home plumbing projects. I tested it out and got an immediate notification to my phone and the base station started alerting and did not stop until I acknowledged and cleared the alert.

    I bought several of these. One for a basement and one for use near my washer. Adding them to my system was a snap and I can manage them, like other sensors, on my app. I did a test on one and it triggered the alarm right away. Thumbs up.

    I never saw a use for this item, until I had the water line to my refrigerator break overnight, and woke up to my house being flooded. If I had this sensor under my fridge, I would have been notified, and immediately shut off the valve, before I suffered extensive damage due to pooling water. I now have these sensors under all sinks and appliances that use water to operate. I highly recommend for anyone.

    Didn’t do what it was supposed to.

    Way smaller than anticipated which I guess is a good thing. We had a leaking water heater last night however and I wasn’t alerted to it whatsoever. I was lucky to have noticed the leak on my own early enough, but pretty unacceptable that this thing didn’t do the one thing it was supposed to do. This thing really seems to only be for major flood risks if it’s not gonna detect the puddle of water that was slowly forming underneath it. I enjoy simplisafe but this product was an F for me.

    SimpliSafe Water Sensor for piece of mind!

    I purchased the SimpliSafe Home Security System and found out that I could link a SimpliSafe Water Sensor to my system. These were easy to set up. I have placed them near my hot water heater, laundry room and under my bathroom and kitchen sinks. These sensors will set off the main alarm base once they detect any water. They offer me additional piece of mind while I am away.

    I haven't tested it and luckily it has not alerted me to any water issues yet, but it's a great little device that I place in key parts of my basement to warn me of water leaks. A few years ago we had a torrential downpour which allowed rainwater into my basement. Wish I had them then, but now I've got (4) of them.
