Saved our car from a flood!

The device turned on immediately: a beep, an alarm and a call from the company. The water quickly rose to a torrent. Our Dodge Challenger would have been flooded without this device. We had to open the door to get the car out and the result was all the water just flooded us. Thanks to SimpliSafe for protecting our family and our values.

Pros
  • Ideal for a small home
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Safety Must-Have

These things will ensure you don't come home from water damage. I have one in every bathroom and one night I was woken up by an alarm clock and a call from Simplisafe telling me I had a leak. My toilet tank was cracked and due to the quickness of the alarm I only had to wipe up a small puddle. If this had gone on all night, the morning would have been terrible. Worth every penny.

Pros
  • Decent Performance
Cons
  • Big and Bulky

I get a VERY hard to open box with a long disclaimer leaflet and short installation instructions. I'm pretty good with computers but couldn't figure out what to do so I called Revain who told me they didn't get it either. It turns out that connecting to the Internet requires separate expensive devices. It won't do what you probably want: make noise when there's water on the floor.

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • No machine

Excellent product - safety

Received this product, opened and placed on the base station. I then placed it on the kitchen table, unaware that there was a small amount of water on it. He sent an alert and I got a call from SimpliSafe with a notification. I couldn't believe it. I put it in the upstairs bathroom in case the toilet overflows or leaks while we're away. I've since bought two more of these and placed one in the laundry room behind the washing machine and one in the basement between the water heater and the sumpโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Negative impression

That's great. Recommended to all

Very nice thing! I love it. I work for a water and mold remediation company and see this often in people's homes. I personally have one too. It uses the same technology as our equipment, which we pay thousands of dollars for. It not only detects water, but also the degree of saturation of the soil on which it is located. This means if water collects under the floor and you can't see the water on the floor, it will set off an alarm for you and let you know what to look out for even if you can'tโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Super Price
Cons
  • Piggy Bank Price

It's not worth it! I wish I had known before buying.

Since I bought the system for self-monitoring, it's almost useless for this purpose. In my opinion, the SimpliSafe system simply avoids false advertising when it comes to self-monitoring. There are no remote notifications to your cellphone unless you pay for the highest tier of their monitoring service. At that time I could buy many other systems. It's basically like an old-school car alarm. Install it and it will turn off when any of the sensors are activated. If you are not at home, which isโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Rugged design
Cons
  • Quick start guide

Saved my ass 2 weeks later

We bought a new house and I bought the SimpliSafe system. I placed a water sensor under each sink and behind the washing machine. We were away for a few days and I got a warning from the water sensor. I asked my neighbor to come over and the air conditioner drain came loose from the pan and air rushed into the house. Luckily the AC is in the laundry/utility area so the water went straight onto the water sensor and worked. A little towel work, reattach the hose and you're done. Now I've addedโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Nothing here

Compact; quick pairing; Vague instructions

The device was quick and easy to set up. It was quickly recognized by the base station/keyboard. The instructions that came with it were a bit vague. Looking at the bottom of the device will show you which way to turn to find the battery. It comes with a battery and there doesn't seem to be anything between the battery and the contacts so I'm a bit confused. worried about how long the included battery will last. Nothing is said about whether the device is waterproof or resistant when waterโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Difficult to say
