[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have nothing but good things to say about the ring and their products! I love the app. It’s so easy to use and I have all my lights, cameras and security devices hooked up to it. I get notifications when I’m not home or on vacation which is really nice. I can be out of the country but still know what’s going on at my house. Definitely gives me piece of mind. The alarm kit goes above and beyond what the doorbell camera and lights do. It’s nice to know if my windows or doors are disturbed while I’m not home. I’d definitely recommend all ring products! Got to stay safe!

gives us peace of mind
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My family loves having this ring alarm set. It gives us peace of mind while we are away and sleeping. We know that if someone were to break into our house, the alarm would instantly notify us. This set includes a base station, a keypad, four contact sensors, a motion detector, and a range extender. The contact sensors work on both doors and windows. The range extender does a good job. We have one of our contact sensors on our basement door and our detached garage building's door. Without the range extender, both of these doors were too far away from the base, but with the range extender, it reaches them without a problem. The motion detector is very nice to have. We ended up putting it outside by our front door (where it is protected from the elements). My four-year-old snuck outside one day. I was very grateful that the motion detector alerted me. The alerts can go through your phone and the base station. The app has so many different settings. My husband installed everything, but he didn't have any issues. The instructions were clear and easy. The base was the most "difficult" thing to install, but even that wasn't hard.

Frustrating
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm sure this set is fantastic, but I had so many issues with connectivity and Apple devices I gave up. It is very easy and smooth to install the components and the alarm is LOUD. The keypad likes to fall off the wall, even after cleaning so find a secure place to put it. If I can get this to work with Apple stuff I'll definitely continue to use it to protect my home.

Great Starter Alarm Kit!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have never had an alarm system for my house before. I have only had security cameras before so this kit was perfect for me as a beginner and it would be great for even people who have been using alarm systems for a long time. This kit was not too confusing or difficult for me to set up even with me usually being someone who is not very tech savvy. There is no drilling required for this system which made it easy to set up. The contact sensors can be used for windows and doors and I can always get more to easily add to it. I already had security cameras that also work in sync with this system. I was already using the app with my cameras so I was able to quickly add this system in the app. If you are using the app for the first time it will also be easy for you to set up. If you are just starting out or adding to an existing system, this kit is absolutely a great addition that is easy to use and will give you some peace knowing that your home will be secure and instantly get notification if someone was to invade your property and that is well worth it!

Easy set up
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am liking the ring alarm system so far. It was super easy to set up and easy to access the video and monitor. The camera is super clear and it’s really easy to control from afar. We are feeling much safer with our ring!

So easy to install Alarm System
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What a great system and it is so easy to install on your own and no tools were needed. You have everything you need to protect either 4 doors or windows or a combination of both. I love that I can access the alarm system right from my phone so I can see what is going on at all times. The best part is Alexa so I don't even have to go to the keypad I can just speak the command or if I forget to alarm the system I can go straight to the app and set it. Such a great system to give you a piece of mind.

Gets the job done.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this to feel a little more secure. It helps. When a window is opened, I hear a beep. The same goes for the door. I find this great for the door because now I know when my teen opens the door. There shall be no sneaking out. It is like a hidden babysitter that I don't have to pay weekly. Everything is going smoothly. I've been using this for about a month. I will ultimately get more pieces to grow my system. I love that you can add on to the system to customize it for your own personal needs. I do not have the paid subscription yet but I feel that it is well worth the money and plan to obtain that very soon. Definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a customizable home security system while on a budget.

Improvements to form on great functioning products
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using the gen 1 Ring system for a couple years now and love the service. The system is incredibly easy to set up. You just take it out of the box, install the app, and follow directions. At the end, you're set up with a security system that rivals the big names that require expensive subscriptions and professional installation. You can monitor and control status away from home, set up custom codes, and many other cool features that are too numerous to list. The function from gen 1 to gen 2 seems to not have changed much, but the design and form of the hardware has improved dramatically. You can see in the photo the gen 1 system on the right and the gen 2 system on the right. The motion sensor and contact sensor have improved size considerably. The keypad has improved as well, and is way more attractive visually, and also more intuitive to use. Ring also made some good improvements on battery selection on the devices. The gen 1 motion and contact sensors both use CR123A batteries. Ring has now made it so the motion sensor uses AA, and the contact sensor uses CR2032. While it was nice that both gen 1 use the same batteries, they are not as readily available as the gen 2 selection. You can go to any local store and find both easily. Overall, Ring knocked it out of the park with the design improvements. They have taken an already great platform and improved the hardware in both size and aesthetics. Bravo, Ring!
