Unreliable and Disappointing Chime

Based on my experience, this biometric security product falls short in almost every aspect. The chime fails to sound when motion is detected, making it unreliable for effective surveillance. Despite being marketed as wire-free, it requires constant recharging which adds to the frustration of using it.

Pros
  • The design is sleek and modern.
Cons
  • Unreliable motion detection and requires frequent charging.

Be prepared to remove doorbells

Wife is not tech savvy. It took forever to get them to install the original app. And if Arlo needed a new app, no chance. Using the instructions, they are very easy to attach to my base station.

I have to stop buying her things in winter. Don't they know it's cold outside? My system required me to delete the bells and…

  • Decent work

Good idea, badly implemented. but at least the support is great.

I have to say that Arlo's support was great and really tried to…

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
