Aggregate ratings lean positive, with most ratings in the five-star category, but the sample is limited and includes some low ratings. Ratings alone do not identify what buyers liked or disliked. For a bundle whose stated use depends on camera video, motion alerts and two-way talk, the listing's bandwidth and temperature caveat is relevant, but the ratings do not establish how those features perform.
