Amazon.com Product Description
Worried that you won't be able to hear the doorbell when you're in the garden, garage, or basement? With Heath Zenith's wireless doorbell system, you can simply pick up the chime and take it with you (it plugs in to a standard polarized socket). To install, all you need to do is mount the doorbell and plug in the chime-no electrical installation is needed.The volume of the chime is adjustable, and you can select one of three different chimes. You can also change the code settings (which allow the doorbell to communicate with the chime) to make sure your neighbor's wireless systems won't set of your chime. Note that the battery for the doorbell is included, along with all the mounting hardware you'll need.--Josh Dettweiler What's in the Box

 Pleased November 13, 2009

After reading many reviews about this wireless doorbell, I was a tad skeptical. But, I have been online enough to realize most people complain rather than take the time to compliment; so I take the negative commments with a grain of salt.
I just installed mine and it was so easy that alone pleased me. I have a front and back door, so the two buttons worked great. Westminister chime on the front door and one ding on the back door. Sweet. I at least know which door to answer!
So far, everything works fine. I have wireless Internet, a wireless alarm system and the wireless door bell works fine as well.
At the price, even if it doesn't last all that long it is still worth it.

It seemed fine at first, right up until the return time elapsed. Sneaky thing. Well, almost fine. The battery sits a bit loose in the pushbutton unit, so when attaching it, the battery slid a bit and I needed to remove, adjust, and reattach. It worked. As I said, worked fine for a little over a month. Then it started working about half the time. Then it rained heavily and it started working all the time... as in ringing without being actually touched. Maybe something in the unit swelled? I had to unplug the receiver until things dried out.
I've just changed out the battery in hopes of it working. I went through the "adjust battery, snap in place, remove to adjust shift caused by snapping in place" dance again, but then it worked. But after a few pushes over a few days, the battery has apparently slid out of place again. Off to buy one with a better rating.

I just love it, my previous one lasted for 5 year, this is a real good buy. Only the bel knob got damaged the electrical part of the chime is still work. It's just great. A real good deal

Bought it in July, died in September. Probably would be OK for an indoor environment (buttons and receiver) but the buttons don't hold up to any kind of moisture - including dew.

This is inexpensive and had the chime sound my wife and I wanted. I'll leave it to other reviews to discuss long-term problems, I just now installed mine and it has worked three times out of three.
The install process is from the "we don't care" school. There are indentations where the screws go, but you have to push the screws through the plastic - there's no hole or poke-away tab.
If you want to change the tone - I didn't, but I read the manual - you open the doorbell unit and change jumpers! This is fine if you have spent time setting up hard drives, but strikes me as an odd process for a doorbell with a total of three (3) sounds to choose from. Similar doorbells use a button on the underside of the ringer to change tones from one sound to the next.
The doorbell functions so far, the bell is fifteen feet from the ringer, but the workmanship is consistent with the bad reviews and does not fill me with confidence.
I recommend that you buy something else.
