Does anyone have one?  

I'm shopping and curious about whether anyone has a favorite.  It would need to be wireless as I don't have a wired doorbell.

We don't have one, yet. But, I would like to get one. Along with a camera to mount above the garage.

I'd like to hear if anyone has a favorite, too.

Nope. Don't have one.

Got a great big window and a yappy dog.

We are probably going to get one. When we are in the basement we can't hear the doorbell.

We have always had a wireless and two chimes, one of which we plug into the basement. However, I like the idea of seeing who is there while I am away. We have a glass front door and often times I feel as though there is someone or something out there. I put in a solar powered flood light that is motion sensored and the first night it went off when I was in the bathroom. So my suspicions were right..

A friend of mine has one
The last time I went to her house to drop off something while she was gone I did a little dance in front of the camera.

 When I was a teen, dad put up a motion sensor light on the corner of the house, which happened to be right between two of my windows.

Animals set it off.

Tree limbs blowing in the wind set it off.

The neighbor who lived at the top of the hill set it off with his spot light.

 

A week after it was up, I'd had enough.

I took the bulbs out of it.

We have one of those, too, between the garage and our front door. The neighbor's across the street goes off all the time, too. But this one I'm talking about is low to the ground and the sensor is facing the front door. Wind (even that derecheo we had awhile back) did not set it off. We do have a frog that comes out at night so it could have been that, but I doubt it. He wasn't there when I looked. Opening the front door will set it off. It is located just a few feet from the front door, without any bushes, branches, etc., between it. We also have a large front porch covering which protects our porch from anything that could come down. (like a plantation style home)

Now the one we have in the backyard facing the slider goes off more frequently, but we get a lot more wind in the back because of how the house faces.
