Tools and Hardware Reviews of Heath/Zenith SL-6166-C Wireless Plug-In Door Chime Kit with Molded Plastic Cover, White
Customer Review: Get something else
Summary: 2 Stars
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.
Customer Review: Great product; powerful signal; no hassles
Summary: 5 Stars
Initially skeptical, I'm very pleased. I live in a NYC apartment, with a lot of wireless-interfering steel in the building, but the signal reaches a couple of rooms away. Installation was trivially easy. the price is right. There are even options on the kind of chime it makes. What's not to love?Customer Review: Music

Summary: 5 Stars
Office with a locked door. Needed to be able to know when a customer was waiting for service. This was a perfect solution. Very happy with the product. 2nd one we have purchased. 1st one lasted 5 years. The button died, so we got the new one and now we have two chimes for one button, makes it easier to hear.Customer Review: Pleased
Summary: 5 Stars
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.
