Decision:

As a healthcare worker in Philly with a kid at home, I bought this as a gift for myself to feel safer, and overall, it's been pretty good! 😊 I use it daily to check on deliveries or chat with neighbors without opening the door—super handy. But yeah, it has its quirks; the false alerts can be annoying, and I wish it lasted longer between charges. For the price, it's a solid choice for beginners like me who want something simple and effective, though it's not perfect. I'd recommend it with a heads-up about those minor issues.

• Pros: I love how easy it is to set up—just stick it on the door and it works right away, no wires or complicated steps. Getting alerts on my phone instantly when someone's at the door is a lifesaver; I never miss a delivery or visitor. The video quality is sharp, so I can actually see who's there clearly, and being able to talk to people through it feels like having a little helper for my home.
• Cons: From what I feel, it can be a bit too sensitive sometimes, picking up movements from things like passing cars or animals, which leads to unnecessary notifications. The battery life isn't great and needs recharging more often than I'd like, which is a hassle. Also, it doesn't work well if my internet connection is weak, making it unreliable at times.
