Review: Works as described, perfect fit! - I was a little apprehensive in buying this unlighted doorbell because of the negative reviews. I took a chance since it was so inexpensive. Many had said the doorbell comes apart when you loosen the screws for the connection. I had no such issues. This doorbell was manufactured well. I can’t understand the negative reviews, either they are inept or just can’t do DIY stuff. This was so easy. Just loosen the screws enough for the wire leads to wrap around then screw tight. I don’t know about it falling apart, but even IF you removed the screws (which I didn’t) I can’t see how it would come apart. Once both leads are connected, I folded the flanges so they could fit in the hole, and tested it beforehand. It works perfectly. The finish on the brass is shiny and bright. My old doorbell was metal, but this one is plastic with shiny brass finish. Looks really good. See pictures of the old and new. Looks great and priced right! Super easy to install.
Review: 👍🏻 - Easy to install. Works like it should. It's kinda janky. I was limited on option as doorbells w/out cameras are hard to find and this was the exact duplicate of the one I was replacing. What do you want for $10?
