Door Deals & Offers

The other issue where it takes itself offline possibly could be that the ring doorbell goes to sleep when there is no motion, but as soon as it detects motion and records there is a delay which could explain it if it only connects when there is detection, abit like wake on lan.

Fast roaming was disabled by default. I had read about that feature bricking some doorbells! Seemed to be the 2 version. I've also disabled mesh technology for the doorbell so it shouldn't switch between them. I think I need to have a play around with where they are positioned too. I've noticed that moving it from the shelf where the hub is to the floor next to it improves the signal.

For your deco issue, I would advise removing it from roaming if you have this feature enabled.

I fitted mine and also bought a Deco M5 mesh system at the same time as I knew the hub I have wouldn't be enough. Has anyone had issues? I'm getting a signal of between 50-60, even with an M5 disc 8ft away. It seems to start recording when someone gets to the door rather than when they first start walking up the driveway. I'm still experimenting with the settings though. Something else I've noticed is the Deco seems to take the doorbell offline when it's finished recording. The doorbell itself doesn't show as offline in the Ring app, only on the Deco. If it detects motion or I go to live view it wakes up but I think this might be causing the issue with not capturing people until they're at the door. Any one else have this problem?

It happened after about 18 months. It could have been earlier but I don't ever use the doorbell so I was only made aware by the post man. It's not unusable. I contacted Ring but they only offered a discount on a new product. I've read that someone has uploaded the design for replacement buttons to be 3D printed. I've not explored that but with my personal experience of Ring I'm keen to give Eufy or Nest a try for comparison.

I have a 4x6. You cant fit much in it. But after 2 years, it still looks new. If you have space, buy biggest you can

What are you on about. I've had mine just under 2 years, no such problems. I highly recommend it, you do need a solid base and definitely need two people for assembly.

Out of interest the 6x8 version of these they have at £450 plus £6.95 delivery at Argos. Stock for delivery seems to fluctuate however Amazon have price matched. These are the 6x8 as opposed to the 8x6 on this post. Mine is coming very early tomorrow morning! I've had the 8x11 of these for a couple years and very pleased with it https://www.amazon.co.uk/Keter-Outdoor-Plastic-Garden-Storage/dp/B015J60IPQ Been using the recycled plastic squares to create the base... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Gravel-Grass-Grid-Paver-Base-Greenhouse-Deck-Path-Turf-Lawn-Gravel-Shed-Garden/153648232093 Only bad thing I've had happen is bought a 6x6 on the Tesco Direct site when it was closing at half price. Finally cleared some space in the garden last week to erect it and discovered only had half the shed, one box instead of two!

Cool. Mine came with its own floor too (different model though)

Thanks... I have a flat slab base so should be fine

Did you managed to get it set up in the end? How does it work with Google kit?

Thanks. That's interesting. The Ring Pro is £179 at the moment on Amazon, and I've found it to be faultless.

Almost Everything is better. Response time /wifi connection ( via hub ) / local storage + cloud option / video quality / design / notifications ( it takes a mini photo of the person spotted on the camera) .. can’t find too many flaws

Is it though? Apart from the £20pa sub?

Fair point. I’ve checked the full functionality after your comment ( before that I only asked to play video once and no issues ) . Still way better than ring.

I got 10 for £2.49 at B&M a few years ago, worth a check if visiting.

Is this a 'May the 4th be with you' deal? ;)

Not great for thick carpets as it just pushes the carpet down!

Rather get the rubber ones. These can chip the doors over time.

Or £1 in poundland

Ring Door View this thread refers to is still showing £119 for me too. If you mean the Ring Pro then yes I noticed it looks like it has jumped up to £199 on JL and seems to have disappeared at Argos for now. Glad I got it at £157. It'll likely be reduced again somewhere before long though.

Still £119 for me.

£199 now?

You're right,it had been at £129 briefly with ring when I first started looking at them but then jumped back to £179. So £119 from John Lewis is excellent. I liked the fact that door view is mostly inside so harder to steal too, as you say. I did read though that if your Ring doorbell is stolen Ring will replace it free as long as you get a crime reference number from police.

Thank you for your comment. Pro is certainly a better option if hardwiring is not a problem. I was waiting for the Door View Cam to go down in price as hardwiring is mission impossible for me and the Door View Cam is unlikely to be stolen. Most retailers were selling it for £159 last month as far as I remember, therefore I think £119 is a good price and John Lewis is a decent retailer.

So pretty much everyone price matching it. Nice.

Just one more option, same parice at John Lewis with 2 year guarantee.

Benefit of Amazon in my opinion is paying interest free in 5 payments. But if paying upfront makes no difference. Also same price direct from Ring (which is owned by Amazon anyway)

Same price at Argos for c&c.

Thanks @gubro I've had one of these set up as an alert, really tempted at this price.

Guys try the readily app it's free for 2 months all the magazine's you could want

That's a good price as they put the price up to £3.00 a mag. It does have some good recipes in which I cut out and keep in a binder.

Does it still have vouchers in the back for money off your shopping? Obviously very specific but normally decent discount.

It’s a pretty substantial magazine, the free ones are might be about 10-20% the size of this

I have never had the magazine but must confess I am shocked it is paid for - normally aren't these in-store (essentially marketing) publications free ? You can get a 'proper' (dont know how else to call it) magazine trial for the same cost that would be 'independent' of SAinsburys. But if you value this particular publication then this is cheaper than normal etc.

Mine hasn't yet but I am trying to bee positive!

Mine has just arrived :D

Thanks, have ordered.

Looks great have ordered one...thanks

Thats lovely Thank you

sold out, there were only 2 left after I bought mine, sorry!

Can’t see it on the site!

Link please

Just the job to go beneath my dartboard to stop dropped darts marking my floor (y) thanks OP

Nice spot, if you search for mat they also have a couple of Rick & Morty mats for the same price (y)

I would imagine there will be a grub screw under the cover.

So nothing to do with the grub screw etc. Just need to take the cover off to tighten the floppy handle?

Plastic tool prize the cover off.

More specifically I don't have a grub screw, but I can see that's what it could be at the bottom of the handle... If I have an Allan key but no grub screw, what can I do...

Please can anyone tell me how I can take this handle off. Basically it has got a bit flimsy so need to look under the hood to see how best to tighten up

💥

This is them. Just like the ones in my gym (y)

I actually bought this not long ago to warm up joints before training and the quality of the band itself is very good, as good as other brands even. Shame they have inflated the price so much as I bought this exact one from the same seller for 99p.

Given the quality of some newbuilds this is likely to rip the door off.

Perfect to keep the shoulders muscles up while the Archery clubs are closed. Ordered.

Thank you. Didn't see your response... Costco no longer sell these, out of stock, deal finished I guess. I have been looking at buying from the supplier directly. However, not sure if I'll get the same level of care as going through Costco. I need door and side panel, based on their online quote tool coming up £2.5k+ Not sure what to do

It's not been fitted yet! They have only come to measure but it's all on hold because of covid. I'm paying an extra 580 for two medium sized side windows.. I'll let you know when it's fitted ! I'm just trusting in Costco as they are usually pretty good (y)

Hi, have you had your door fitted? How is the quality? How was the service? Is there any guarantee? Would you recommend? Many thanks in advance. :-)

Dang I paid the full price for this about a month ago. The salesman came round and measured up for the two side windows. It is expensive and takes a while. The extra side windows were £580 ontop of the main price so almost 1,800 in total... It's not been fitted yet, better bloody be worth it!

if you don't hate your postman, they have other doors reduced

Was tempted but review not so good for similar range item diy.com/departments/goodhome-ladoga-white-vanity-basin-unit-w-600mm-h-810mm/3663602527268_BQ.prd?rrec=true

Thanks so much Andy :)

Thanks for posting; we have added this to the Highlights sections (y)

Ordered the oinker. Cheers OP (y)

There is also an Elephant in the same range in grey corduroy. Doesn't appear online for some reason, but I saw it in store in the Sheffield chesterfield road branch. It's even cuter than the others!
