AVANTEK Wireless Doorbell, 1000 ft Range, 1 Button + 1 Receiver, CW-11 | Plug-In Receiver, 115 dB Volume, LED Flash, 52 Chimes, 5 Volume Levels, Waterproof Door Bell, 3-Year Battery

After two mini-strokes left my balance occasionally shaky and an outside fall, I went looking for a convenient device that would let me signal my distress to an audible alarm. Most of the available device seemed to of questionable quality and limited range and cost $30-$50+. So I thought of a wireless doorbell. This one cost less than $20 and the transmitter was weatherproof while promising excellent range. It has delivered perfectly on all counts. The range has been tested at over 200' through multiple walls. The transmitter is small with a large button. The unobtrusive receiver plugs directly into a wall outlet and is quite loud. It offers 52(!) ringtone choices, perhaps a bit silly, but whatever. I'll get a neck lanyard, making it perfect for my needs. A five-star solution!

Excellent door bell and super easy to install. Simply plugin the receiver, then stick the button next to your front door and you are good to go! The receiver (actual door bell) is very loud and has a ton of different sounds that it can play and can be adjusted to the volume and sound you want. For the price, you just can't get any better for a door bell. I have bought 4-5 now for various houses and have never had any issues. Also the actual door bell button sticks very firmly by your door - I have never had one fall off yet over 4-5 years.

Only have used it about a week and so far, so good. If it doesn't hold up I will update this review. Easy to figure out & use!

VERY NICE SOUND, BUT NEEDS MORE VOLUME. NOT LOUD ENOUGH

My doorbell was accidentally destroyed by my son. This one looked like a good, cheap replacement option. Pro: - very easy to install - wide variety of 'ring' possibilities - volume levels well fitting - easy controls - compact Cons: - music has pretty much the same electronic sound - electronic music does get on the nerves (pierces a bit) - didn't expect so many animal sounds The sender is 1 1/2"x3"x1/2" and the ringer is 3"x3"x1 1/2"...slick and compact. The doorbell is super easy to install. The main bell simply plugs into an outlet and stays there. The button (Sender) is a little more work but nothing difficult. It comes with 2 possibilities: a very sticky, double-sided foam tape-pad (which can be cut to size needed) or two little screws. I used a mixture since only one of the screw holes would line up with the earlier drill holes. The sender comes with a button battery, in which the plastic tab needs to be removed. Removing the back of the sender was the most difficult part of this. There is a metal 'key' included, which (according to the directions) is inserted into the slot along the bottom of the back, near the battery, and then, turned. This is nothing more than a way to pry off the back. The back was a bit stubborn (I was afraid to force it too much and break of a tab), but it did need to be popped off and didn't break anything in the process. Getting the sender and the bell to connect with each other is also simple. The steps are clear in the directions, and it works quickly and right away. The music/noises do cover a large variety of possibilities from animal noises to a couple stranger noises to all sorts of music. I was a little disappointed that the instructions didn't carry a list of the tones. Also, the electronic sound of the music isn't almost always the same, but sounds extremely electronic and carries a slight high-pitch that rakes at the nerves if used often. But since our doorbell only rings (seriously) a couple times a month, this isn't a problem. It's worth the price, super easy to install and does it's job.

Before I found this doorbell, I had purchased a different brand locally. That one was rated for up to 150 feet but in my case, it couldn't even work at 17 feet. It turns out that these types of doorbells have issues working through block walls and metal. My house was built from block walls, covered in metal wire mesh and stucco over that. Research indicated that I needed a doorbell system rated for a much higher working range than 150 feet to compensate for those things. One website gave percentages for example - like if you have block walls, subtract 30% (or whatever it was - can't remember what the exact percentage was now) off of the listed range, if you have metal subtract another percentage etc. I tried moving the receiver to a room where it was closer to the transmitter and plugged in by a window. That worked however, it was still a struggle for it. The volume was so low I wasn't able to hear it unless I was in that room and if the TV was on or if I was in conversation with someone I couldn't hear it at all. That doorbell system did not have any sort of volume control either. Fast forward to finding this one rated at 1000 feet with adjustable volume. Yes! It's working out great for me! I can plug in the receiver exactly where I wanted to plug in the one from the first set. My block walls and metal stucco mesh doesn't seem to be a problem for this system. The receiver is plugged into an outlet on the first floor and the sound is loud enough for me to hear from upstairs. This system has several different sounds to choose from but all I wanted was the standard "ding dong". The one I received "ding donged" right off the bat so I didn't bother to try the other sounds. There is just one little thing I would change on it if I could and that is I had to use a "key" (supplied with this set) to open the back of the transmitter in order to remove the little strip of plastic so the (included) battery could make contact. This was a little fiddly to do before installing it but now that we have it in place (we opted to hang it using the supplied screws rather than the tape) I imagine it may be more so when battery changing time rolls around. On the other hand *maybe* I wouldn't change how it opens after all - I also imagine this may make it not so easily knocked out of place. I haven't had this doorbell system in use for very long but so far, it's working very well for me.

This is a fantastic product!!! Home was supplied with an existing RIng door bell that I could not get to work properly and also a monthly fee. This doorbell was cheap and works perfectly !! I would highly recommend this product if you want to save money.

nice. it needs a second push of the doorbell to activate. it's as if the first push will "charge" it since it doesnt have an external battery and it isn't wired.

Llevo casi un mes usando este timbre electrónico inalámbrico y funciona perfectamente. He montado el botón/transmisor en la cubierta de plástico de la caja eléctrica usando los tornillos incluidos. Se ve genial y funciona bien. La unidad receptora está ubicada dentro de la casa, probablemente a 2,5 metros de distancia y hay un muro de hormigón grueso. El sistema funciona bastante bien sin problemas de comunicación. Lo único que me gustaría es que el fabricante tuviera una web y un catálogo de melodías donde alguien pudiera escuchar muestras de los diferentes sonidos electrónicos que incluye este timbre. Se vuelve agotador tener que desplazarse hacia arriba o hacia abajo manualmente para escuchar cada melodía y luego tener que volver a la melodía que desea. Sería bueno seleccionar una canción del catálogo del sitio web. Si conoce el número de catálogo de la melodía que desea, simplemente ingrese el número en la unidad receptora y estará listo. En definitiva, se trata de un producto de muy buena calidad (calidad de construcción y visualmente) con una buena relación calidad-precio.

Love the look. It is white, small and discreet. Has many choices of chimes and various levels of sound... loud to very loud. Installation was super easy. I used the no drill option. Great price for value. Highly recommended.

Good quality and worth the money.

I had it for a few weeks only. I still rings at -20C. I was worried about our Canadian winter, but so far so good. My husband installed it easily. Some of the bells are enjoyable. You can pick ding dong, Beethoven's Für Elise, dog's barking...

After four years exposed to Canadian weather, it continues to work as advertised. An expensive, effective alternative to the hardwired doorbell it replaced.
