Reading the other reviews I think some people have been unlucky and maybe had faulty units. I found this pretty easy to set up and the instruction are clear to me. The unit itself is a bit cheap looking but I only paid £7 so i'm totally happy with that. The buttons work fine and the alarm sound is very loud which is great. I have a long thin garden and my shed is approx 200 feet from the house and I can hear the alarm from the kitchen. One thing to note though, remember to tell other family members you installed it as I scared the shit out of my wife :-) he he he!

Works well. I have modified it (multiple door contacts and remote alarm sounders), good cheap alarm for garage etc. Only real downside is the rubber buttons can stick (get trapped in the plastic surround) when pressing them, so you have to watch out for this when disarming. Haven't had long enough yet to test battery life (my previous system used a PP3 9v which would last 2-3yrs, so I am hoping to get similar life from the AA's this uses. I can also confirm that the door contacts are of the standard 'normally closed' type (i.e. when door is closed/magnet is near the reed switch, contact is closed. It opens when magnet is removed) Making it easy to add additional contacts 'in series' for multiple doors etc. Dropped to three stars as battery life fairly poor - only a few months before having to constantly replace alkalines. Also, buttons become less responsive as batteries get low - very weird but happened each time and replacing batteries the keypad became more responsive . I gave up in the end with these cheaper alarms and eventually joined the external system to the main house. Read full review

Does what it says on the tin! Works fine and you can extend the wire, ive extended mine up to 3m, alittle laggy when in delay mode entering code when delay beep is on.. could be nicer with fob remotes and a way of pressing a button to know if it's armed or not instead of typing in code and arming it when not needed as you type in the code to find out arm status.. allittle annoying but for the price it works as it should and very loud alarm!

I have had one of these for years. I bought this one for my sister who is so happy with it. We use it on chime when at home so you know when someone is entering the house. And alarm when going out. Is puts your mind at rest. So easy to use and batteries last year's in it. Highly recommend.
