Unless you like spending hours on hold and then even more hours on multiple troubleshooting calls with their customer service department, pass on this one. I wish I had paid more attention to the negative reviews before I bought this because they were all spot on. After finally getting it connected it worked and didn't work and work and work and eventually I got to the point where every time I left my house it would not work remotely on my phone and I would have to reset everything from scratch.  On my final troubleshooting call before I returned the device, I got the girl to me at that they released these switches to early, rush them out and they are not ready for prime time

I am appalled. I have never had a problem with iHome products before, but this experience has totally changed my mind about the company.

I bought this to replace an older iHome clock radio that I happily owned for at least 5 years. The older device has the larger Apple pin connector, and I've used the lightning pin adapter with my iPhone 5 for more than a year. All of a sudden, the clock radio stopped sending the iPhone sound through the speakers. OK, I thought, five years is a good run for an electronic device. I decided to upgrade to a newer iHome device with the lightning pin connector.

My mistake. I received the device on Jan. 15, 2014. On Jan. 27, 2014, just 12 days after I first plugged it in, the dimmer switch stopped working. On Jan. 28, 2014, just 14 days after I first plugged it in, it stopped charging my iPhone. Luckily, I haven't donated by old clock radio yet, so I guess I'm going to go back to the old clock radio and avoid buying new iHome products every again.

My advice: DO NOT BUY THIS! It's a waste of money. I am highly disappointed with iHome. They used to make quality products. What happened?

Device worked great for just under a year! One day bluetooth does not want to come on, and never did from that point on. Now I have resorted to the AUX cable that was included, and even that wore out in about a month from daily use. Do not waste your money!!

I purchased this device at Christmas - it is now March and it has worked properly for approx two weeks. When I first got it I realized it did not have a device to connect it to wall power. That is sold seperately. Afetr the first set of batteries died I was installing new ones and the cover plate fell aprt in my hands. I recently purchased the wall power connector and another battery cover. When I connected the wall power I discovered that the LCD (Display) is not working. It is getting power because the fan works and a couple of indicator lights are working. I went to Gold's Gym Equipment web page to try and contact someone. The only way to seek service is thru a pre-formatted form. I completed the form and received an error that the form was not functioning and to contact the web page administrator. This equipment is JUNK and the support is a JOKE.

I needed an alternative for my old Fitbit Charge HR, so I decided to try the Vivofit 2. What a mistake!!!!!  It will not pair or synch with my Android phone (I have a newer Android operating system and bluetooth, so it is  definitely not a problem with my phone).

Spent hours trying to get it to pair to my device, but I kept getting an error message. The Vivofit 2 would display "0", and an error message would pop up on my phone saying device not installed.

This is not the first time in my life I add a bluetooth device to my phone. 99.9% of the time I have no issues with any  other device, this Vivofit 2 simply does not work.

Unfortunately my return window is over, so I am now stuck with this piece of junk. I will NEVER buy another Garmin fitness device EVER!!  If you like devices that are frustrating to install and don't work as advertised, by all means buy this piece of junk.

My guess is that all the positive reviews here are either paid by the company or are made up. I checked online and there were hundreds of people having the same exact issue as me, yet there is no mention of any this problem anywhere on the reviews here on Amazon. I find that very suspicious.

Is the worst device that I have. It is unreliable, It keeps dropping the connexion, even though it has a strong wifi signal.
Never works from the outside... and when it does it takes around 40 seconds to open / close the door lock.
It is extremely expensive for the use and performance that it has.
DO NOT BUY!

I bought this device knowing that it would not work with laptops, as it states in the description, but it says it is compatable with Apple products, and most other devices with a video out. Well, I'm a gadget freak, and have cameras, phones, tablets, pdas, and more, and this device has yet to work with even one product I have. What a waste of money. I hate this thing! Would never recommend to anyone for anything. Nice idea, but no actual function. Don't but it. I'm just glad that when I did buy it, it was only $69.95. Whew! Now it's back to $200.00. Stay away from this thing.

Did not buy through Amazon but I'm so disgusted by this piece of equipment that I have to advise others to avoid it.
The wireless keeps dropping off. Nothing stays connected and reconnecting is difficult.
On Lynksys web site people mention the same and hope for an firmware upgrade for the last 6 months.
I should have read it first...
What are the support team of Lynksys doing? NOTHING.

I had been looking for a device like this for a long time and was excited to get it and start using it.  Unfortunately after I had been using it for about 2 months it completely crashed taking all my passwords with it.  I would never buy it again.  If you do buy it you need a paper backup anyway so why not just use a logbook??  Again THIS IS TRASH!!

This device was a total disaster! This is my 2nd from AT&T. The 1st one lasted a couple of years, but over time, the audio became muffled, making it useless. I was surprised that this happened, since this is a digital device vs. one with a tape that could become worn when recorded over and over. In any case, I had purchased new cordless phones with an answering device on board, but I wasn't happy with the audio on them. So, I thought I'd try another AT&T device, thinking that they must have made improvements for the audio problem over the past 2 or so years. So, I installed it quickly, no problem, but after my VERY FIRST MESSAGE, I pulled the plug right away. The 1st one degraded over time, but this one FAILED ON IT'S MAIDEN VOYAGE. So, it was BACK TO AMAZON the very next day. I'll never trust AT&T products again.

I purchased this a few weeks ago.  I think it is rubbish!! One big problem I have is the music I put on this device....it works sometimes and it does not some other time!!!  It is very frustrating when I go yo Gym first thing in the morning and I don't know if this device is going to work or not. I also listen to other educational recording on this device... same problem.

I am going to buy another phone....it was completely waste of my money!!!

I would give it  negative star rating if existed. This is the worst product I have ever purchased!
The interface is not user friendly. We have tried to connect to 2 different iPhones and connection or doesn't pair or is lost once it connect. You never know if the device is on or not. I think they sold me a device with a dead battery!!
Beware buyers, their return policy is 30 days.
It turns out that I have never been able to use it since I bought it. After it never worked from the get go when I bought it April 20th, I forgot I had it. I decided to give it a try, but the battery to charge again and tried to connect....same problem as the beginning. It might be my fault not have requested a replacement sooner, but usually this type of stuff is just a waste money. Do not recommend this device to anyone. Put your money on a camera and record yourself, will have better results!!!

Do not buy this product! I am returning mine.

1. It came with wrong instructions.
2. Had to download the software and instructions from manufacture's website.  Instructions are written in "broken English" which makes it very difficult to follow.
3. The Android App is horrible and very buggy.
4. The Windows App is just as bad.
5. The web portal is worse.  There is so much lag time.
6. It rarely records when alarm is tripped.
7. The device didn't appeared to be new when I received it. It looked a little dirty, had a small chip, and the ethernet cable was obviously used.

I purchased one of these devices and it could not longer be charged after about two weeks.  Amazon was kind enough to replace the device, only to have the new device stop charging in five days!  The probability of these two cases being isolated are astronomically low, which would lead to only one logical conclusion: all of these devices are defective and will stop charging within a week to two weeks of purchase.  Please do yourself a favor and stay far away from these!

the device does not work well.  Even with a full signal the video skips/pauses every second or two making it impossible to watch anything for any duration.
