Doorbell Deals & Offers

Arrived a few days ago - great for the price

Thanks for taking the time to look that up, and good idea

I've just looked at the instruction manual I got with mine and it does not mention anything about buying additional door push buttons or how to pair them up. Why not buy two sets and assign a different ringtone to each pair so you know which doorway the visitor is calling from?

I want to have the front and side door using the same speakers for these: Is it possible to get a button on its own? If not, is it possible to link two sets of these together so they are all on the same channel?

Yes but they seem to last forever if you don't have constant visitors pushing the button, my last doorbell push button that used the same batteries lasted about 6 years, maybe even longer.

Does it have annoying ring tones? He last cheap doorbell I got had unbelievably bad tones

I have had two of these. The second has just recently failed after over 1year. As with Aldi, if more than a year has passed but the item is still within the warranty you need to contact the Lidl service department. I did that today and, after a bit of a wait, I spoke with someone who is going to arrange a replacement to be sent out. The warranty on the replacement will expire on the same day as the original expiry date. Although they work well when they work, I wouldn't recommend them for anyone who needs long term reliability. I don't mind a little bit of hassle if it will save me money. You can set up to four receivers to ring when the door bell button is pressed, handy if you live in a mansion (as long as they are in range) or you are less able to hear them so you can set up one in each of the rooms you use the most.

While this sounds good value for money considering 3 years warranty. I would suggest only treat this as one year. Last year I purchased a doorbell similar to this from Aldi, which also had 3 year. After 1.5 years it stopped working. I tried calling a number which was on the packaging, but no one would pick up the phone.( Tried multiple times) Took back to Aldi but they refused to do anything as it was over one year. So it went straight to the bin.

(highfive) just what i need

We got one on the last sale range isn't the best

Where’s the best place to buy one? Cheers (y)

I wanted the ring pro and amazon gave an offer with 15% off for two. £313 for both including chimes.

Looks a reasonable deal, awaiting the nest hello doorbell myself.

Glare? have you tried to place an item above it to block out the light?

That's a good price for Costco members. These are pretty decent products. I've used one for over a year but the apperture is a bit of an issue with street lights at night

reviews on the app looks bad

i bet those batteries dont last long, would love to try it, sd card it good

Can these be powered by mains instead of battery?

This one actually looks good. I wonder how it's attached as the ring one offers a replacement should it get stolen

Im confused...is this like Inception? If you mention the thing you are waiting for do you realise it's been mentioned or do you have to be unconscious and remote view yourself from a different perspective?

Thanks for the heads up, I have just ordered one today. I already have the Ring Door bell 2, chime pro, Spotlight and floodlight. I am going to use this to monitor my back door and put the spare Chime upstairs

Side by side hard to really tell the difference in quality of this and version 2 check your wifi signal before buying!!

Gonna wait for the 4k camera version :{

Good its got the chime but is the 720p camera.

I'm waiting for amazon to bring out a new version with cloud storage included with prime

I'm not a Costco member, but it's showing at £189 for me. Has the deal expired, or is there a special members price when you log in?

I know that,but the way you worded it made it sound like you thought you had to pay the subscription for the normal video features like live view. In other words i thought was helping you out ; )

Rechargeable battery inc. lasts a good 8 weeks.

Yes, but if you miss a ring or a motion that’s been captured you wouldn’t be able to view it- ie if your car was broken into in the night.

It's 150 in the warehouse if you can get to one. Only comes with a Chime unit tho...not Chime Pro. Useful if you've already used the online code for something else.

Isn't the Pro wired only?

I wonder if they call the new doorbells Alexa Ring? You can see where it’s heading as Amazon will give discount to its home security product users due to them being able to open the door and have evidence of the parcel being delivered plus they will email you the video clip. It will save them money on lost or stolen parcels and tie customers into their products.

Amazon buys 'smart' doorbell firm Ring for more than $1 billion US Dollars. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-43217601

They should do now they own ring. They had the Ring Pro for £150 on amazon warehouse and I would go for that version instead if you can afford the extra.

Even if you buy it from Amazon

Heat added. Best price I've seen on this and I live in Hertfordshire! :D

Would hold out & see what Amazon brings to the table with their recent purchase of Ring before splashing out.

I saved up almost 2 years of paper rounds, washing cars and mowing lawns to get a DX4 100 mate, came with Wing Commander 3. Wiped the floor with your puny DX 66. (lol) (lol) And then came the pentium literally a month later which came on motherboards which were totally incompatible with the RAM, sound card and graphics card that my PC had (was it ISA or something?). The days when you could drop a grand on a PC and it'd be worth £200 in 3 months (lol) But yeah this door bell is vastly overrated. Their support who claims to be your neighbour is ok I guess, they tried to resolve my issues with the quality of the image but eventually started to ignore me. Probably because I told them what I thought of their product and their email blocked me 8)

You have to rent your doorbell nowadays?

You'll never improve on my knockers

I got one as well but it's crap, it's worse than direct connection to router

Had lots of drop outs and delayed rings. I called ring support and they sent me a free chime extender. Can’t complain.

Yes, probably get the £10 one from amazon and wait for the new ones to come out. Many thanks for the tip

wait for the Nest or as other said Amazon product to work with Alexa

Wow, quite a reaction.... Saw the reduction compared to amazon prices and thought it qas quite good.... Great to get this feedback as I was going to get one, but for close to £100 and the above feedback, will hold fire. Does anyone know of any other decent product or should i not bother and just spend £10 on a normal doorbell.

love it..house in a London center...in between general waste bins and Mosque (embarrassed)

Comes with a free house.

Always one. Its people like you that ruin it for everyone else , most likely sell them on Ebay for a profit. ;) Heat added for op

just as a present for poor relatives ,yeah? (lol)

I thought this was a glitch, then I clicked get deal. Wow.

You can buy it, forget about it and one day you’ll get a pleasant surprise at the door. Will feel more like a gift (y)

1 - 2 months ETA on delivery though (annoyed) I was about to purchase it as well.... Time to look for something else that I don't need I guess.

That's from a 3rd party seller. Still valid from Amazon

£44.50 now. Expired

This is totally pointless, I dont need it. Bought.

Yeah you just easily pleased.

Not at all,I’m just able to follow simple instructions. Maybe get a knocker on your door instead of something which requires a level of technical ability (y) 🏻

Or maybe you just have very low standards.

Mine works fantastically well,maybe it’s you (lol)

Moving house so ring can work wow you really want it to work
