Great Camera

What's great about it: Quality of monitor, ease of installation

EASY to install. Clear picture on the monitor. This monitor even has a few screen savers to choose from instead of just watching what the camera is focused on. Wide lens provides a large area of viewing.

Would highly recommend to anyone interested in a security camera.

Very good for the price

Works well. Easy to install. The camera is pretty good even in dark. The 2 way radio works well too.

The Best

Pros: cameras work really well

Cons: wasn't that easy to place on the outside., electrician had to add outlet for cameras., add on camera cost nearly as much as the system.

This system is great. I can see great at night and during the day, The best part is when I'm upstairs and cant get to the front door , I just use the intercom to inform the person that I'm unavailable. There's a catch, the cameras need to be plugged into a power source. I had to call an electrician.

Works out of the box

Great Picture.

Easy Setup

Good night camera actually quite surprising how well the night vision works.

Already looking to add another camera.

2 way communication has helped me stop those door to door people in my driveway rather than having to deal with them at the door.

I have owned my system for 15 months now. Living in Colorado we have had below 0 temps, hail, rain, snow. My system has performed wonderfully. This has got to be the best security system for the money. I love the wireless connections and the stand a lone monitor. The only thing I could want in addition to what I have is additional cameras, (hint hint). I recommend this system to anyone in need of security cameras

Love it

We have a driveway alarm, however our driveway is situated on the side of our house that has no windows so that we have to go outside to see who it is when someone drives up. With the monitor, we can see who is there without going outside. It has been perfect for us. When at first, we had an issue, Lorex was excellent in taking care of it in a timely manner.

SD Card isBad - Waiting now 2 weeks - Bad Service!

Pros: camera looks cool

Cons: bad customer service, screen is low quality res., sound is weak, bad parts replacement

Two weeks ago, we installed the unit and discovered a bad SD card. (memory card) We called twice, and said it would take 7 days to get the SD card, which was unheard of!! We have been waiting TWO weeks for the SD replacement, so now we are returning the product back to COSTCO. Unit may work fine, but when you need service, expect very bad customer service and bad part replacement!

The system works as advertised. I am happy with the system and would buy it again. The camera can be hung from the ceiling which was a mandatory requirement for me. The wireless camera of the competing system (Defender) did not appear to be capable of being hung from the ceiling. The only minor negative issue I’ve found with the Lorex system is the volume cannot be changed when the motion detector has turned on the recording to the SD card. The volume control can be changed at other times but not during a motion detection recording. So if the volume is turned all the way down to silent (very unusual situation) and the motion detector turns on the recording (person is at the front door) then you (LED monitor location) cannot hear the person speaking at the front door (camera location) and you cannot change the volume to hear the person speaking. You are forced (in this rare circumstance) to open the front door to hear the person speak to you. One other issue that is really a tip, the microphone of the camera will not work (at all) if the protective film that covers the camera lens during shipping is not removed. I tested the system before hanging it and thought the microphone in the camera was broken. I finally took the protective film off and the audio system worked great. I’ve had no interactions with Lorex technical support so I cannot comment on their support.

Excellent System for the Price

Syncing it to the system is extremely easy and setup is quick and easy as well. The mic function is handy for our front door because I can talk to people at the door without having to come up from the office in the basement. It also allows you to see the visitor and gives you a chirping alarm to grab your attention when it detects movement. Only problem is it comes with a 2GB memory card that is not sufficient. I recommend immediately upgrading to a 16GB memory SD card so you can record more than 24hrs. of video at a time. You cn have it automatically record over video as well, so it just keeps recording continously.
