Arlo Baby - Lots of bad reviews, is it worth trying??

danbowden101 — Thu, 04 Mar 2021 04:01:36 GMT

I have a couple of Arlo cameras already, and want a baby monitor. The Arlo Baby sounds amazing, but the reviews leave a lot to be desired:

eg. https://www.productreview.com.au/listings/arlo-abc1000

Should I trust these reviews, and steer clear? Or, are people actually having a good experience with this camera as well??

I really want to give it a try, but I'm put off by so many consistently bad reviews.

Hi @danbowden101

Thank you for providing this feedback. Did you have any questions for me? I would be happy to assist where I can.

I personally use the Arlo baby & have had a great experience.

Nothing specifically - I see another user has also commented saying they have had a great experience, so I think I'll give it a go.

Thanks!

Probably too late, but if you want to sleep AT ALL, I suggest you don't get it. Google, "Arlo iphone no sound", see how they updated the app w/o testing the sound. It was either 3 or 5 nights before they fixed it. How does that happen?!?! Some of the reviews are user error, bit the majority are not. Frequent drops, connecting circle of death, constant factory resetting, issues go on and on.

If it is too late, well... Best of luck.
