Owners love the convenience and ease of installation, but reliability issues with connectivity and collar syncing create frustration that undermines the product's appeal despite its promising concept.

All sides but one land high — Trust it — with one check: owners score reliability & connectivity weakest.

In their words

“This unit is a game changer. We love it and so does our dog. Door was relatively easy to install (pretty much the same as a regular pet door). App was easy to set up and connects in about 1 second. It allows me to operate the door from anywhere, set timers and get messages when my dog uses it. I can select the messages I want to receive. -- very useful. We give it 6 stars!”

“Bought this collar a couple of months ago. An absolute mistake. The unit half the time disconnect from the Internet. The app is an absolute joke. Three different occasions the dog got out when they weren’t supposed to thank God we had our phone number on him And Neighbor called. Do not waste your money on this door. It literally turns on and off by itself. It is completely unreliable.. on two sepa”
