Heath Zenith SL-2735 Sleek Modern Design Wired Doorbell with 2 Chime Sounds, 8.86"W x 1.61"D x 5.39"H, White

"It's just a doorbell; either it works or it doesn't. What else is there to say?" You'd be surprised. As human beings we have accomplished incredible feats including sending people to the moon and curing horrible diseases. Yet when it comes to the doorbell, a simple device whose only task is to informs us when someone is at our front door, we struggle mightily. Search for a doorbell and you will come across all sorts of audio atrocities: some are obnoxiously loud, others are ineffectively quiet, and others produce a sound so irritating that they put you on edge every time a guest arrives. Then there are the visual blunders: door chimes so large that they occupy half of a wall, or ones that just look like a discarded early prototype for a military communication device. How did we go so far astray? All a doorbell really "needs" to do is provide a pleasant (or at least tolerable) sound each time someone presses the button outside your door while ideally not looking like an eyesore on your wall. Fortunately that is just what this one does. Acoustically, it produces the traditional "ding-dong" sound, and it does so with real metal chimes, not a fake-sounding squawky speaker. It sounds neither old-fashioned nor overly trendy. The chime is easy to hear from several rooms away (for me at least) but it doesn't cause you to need a change in undergarments if it sounds while you are nearby. In terms of visual aesthetics, I wouldn't necessarily call it attractive, but neither is it an eyesore. It is neutral enough to fit with most decor and styles and it maintains a presence on the wall without drawing attention to itself. Bottom line: If you want a doorbell that makes a statement or allows you to express your own personal style, this isn't the chime for you. But if you want a reliable, pleasant-sounding doorbell that is moderately attractive, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better option.

Works great, easy to install. Classic bell sound

Looks fine, was easy to install but it still doesn’t work well with our smart doorbell. Sometimes it will struggle to ring and sounds like it is slowly dying. It is most likely an issue with the smart doorbell but since description says compatible with smart doorbells, I was slightly disappointed when we still had the same issue

This worked great but if you have a ring doorbell camera you may need the Ring Power Kit like I did. I also used ChatGPT to help install this device and I felt good when it helped me figure it out. Sick

Five Stars All The Way ! AFFORDABLE: This is a great value for your money. STYLISH: This chime looks great. It has a low profile with rounded edges. It almost disappears on your wall. SOUND: The classic ding-dong sound can't be beat. It is loud enough without being offensive. WORKS GREAT: It just works out of the box. Simple wiring and simple installation. As reported in other reviews, the unit must be installed vertically to get the "ding-dong". If you install it horizontally you will only get the "ding", regardless of how you wire it. Perhaps it is a manufacturer defect/oversight; it certainly wasn't noted in product's description nor in the documentation included with the product. The cover is large enough to cover a 2-gang box opening on your wall, it looks nice and pretty much disappears on my light-colored wall. Now I just need to fill the two small screw holes on the wall. It is a great value, I recommend it.

This thing is huge and could be half its size Easy to install but feels cheap

We replaced our old mechanical chime with this one. I upgraded the transformer to 16V 10VA, and installed this unit vertically (which is better for our location). Went in without a hitch and has a beautiful chime sound. Some complained of cheap springs, but I disagree. The springs have to be just that strength to achieve an equally loud "dong" sound after the powered "ding". Stronger springs would make for a louder 2nd sound. The overall loudness is fine for our medium size house. Some commented about it being too soft, but it is actually much louder without the cover. So perhaps the openings in the cover could be widened to allow a greater sound level to emerge.

Was great for 2.5 months. Now the Chime motor has started running continuously. Not enough to chime but enough to create a loud buzzing sound, which is unacceptable. Seems likely to burn out or start a fire.
