First Alert DW-700 Digital Wireless Security Recording System with 7-Inch LCD Display

Set up the security system in December, seemed to be working. During the winter the camera quit. Other dislikes are: If elec goes off, it will not reset. Shadows and wind will start the camera, a lot of false recordings. Can't play back all of recorded events. Tried to call 800 number in manual, not available. Tried three other numbers, finally got to leave a message which was never returned. Wrote to the company, still waiting for an answer.

I purchased the first alert DW700 and am very pleased with the clear picture you have while monitoring. It will accept up to 4 cameras. You only get one camera with this model, but you can purchase additional. It's nice to see who/what comes on your property while you're home or away! The night vision works fantastic also since it is motion activated..

I bought this camera two years ago. It worked as advertised and the microphone would pick up conversations 30 yards away on non windy days. The problem is it broke after 1 1/2 years, 6 months out of warrenty. I called customer service and they said they replace the unit within the first year. After that they told me "it is time to buy a new unit." Over $200.00 for a life of 18 months, give me a break. Spend your money elsewhere.

Read Best Reviews of First Alert DW-700 Digital Wireless Security Recording System with 7-Inch LCD Display Here

This is a ONE CAMERA system, not two cameras. The photos clearly show a two camera system. But I recieved a one camera system, and when investigated, that is the only one which Amazon stocks. Don't be fooled.

Unless you wanted a one camera system... don't bother.

I wanted to give some positive feedback on this system, especially since the two reviews here are questionable now. One review complains that the photo shown with the product is wrong but it looks like Amazon has corrected this, so giving a low rating for that doesn't make sense anymore. Yes it was important at the time the reviewer posted, but now that the photo is fixed, the product is getting dinged for no reason.

The other reviewer complained that wind and shadows set the motion detector off. Well, YES, that's kind of the point. When we installed this system at my parents' home, we took into account the fact that the wind swishing through nearby trees would set off the motion detector. It's not the camera's fault you have landscaping that MOVES or makes shadows near the camera. It is up to the buyer to place the camera in a location where this does not affect the operation of the system.

With all that being said, I was surprised at how good the picture is on such an inexpensive system. We knew someone with this system and when I saw how it worked, I assumed it would be much more expensive and was surprised to find out how little it costs. For the money I don't think you can find anything better!
