This Amcrest Video Security System is pretty awesome. It comes with everything you need to set it up & install it, tho I did have to go out & buy different screws for mounting the cameras. I've got vinyl siding on my house & there's apparently a gap between the vinyl & the house itself, so the included screws weren't "catching". But if you have an actually wood house or screwing into wood paneling on something else, you'll be fine. Overall I'd say the installation of the cameras took about 30-45 minutes. The time consuming part was hiding the cord under paneling & moving the ladder around.
The cameras are heavy duty & are metal. They're weatherproof which is really great, but I still made sure to try to keep mine under an awning or something so they wouldn't be in DIRECT weather 24/7. They've also got night vision so if anyone comes creeping around at night you can see them. My video cut out as I was about to say we've had things getting moved around on the porch. Don't know if it's animals (there's a racoon that occasionally comes by) or someone messing around. Being in a new area where there's not really anyone up around me to see anything going on, I wanted these. The 4th camera is going in my dogs room so I can see what's going on when I'm not home.
Overall I'm really impressed by the quality of the cameras AND the quality of the videos from the cameras. But I would say my ONLY complaint is that I cannot get this to work on my iPhone 6 & it seems that it's not compatible with the iPhone as many others have had issues with it. Guess I'll be using my Android tablet for that because I'm not swapping my iPhone for a droid (plus I'm nowhere my time for trade in).
I received this product for free or for a discount in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion.
