Very good home system but not elegant . I purchased this system to monitor a home entryway that has recently become a trouble spot. Installation and configuration of the DVR was easy. Configuration of remote access was not so simple but, once accomplished, effective and reliable. What was not clear, owing to simplified product illustration, is that each wireless camera requires a corresponding wireless receiver module connected to the DVR. The manufacturer recommends that each receiver be separated from its neighbors at the back of the DVR. So if you have two cameras, there will be two receivers connected with two cables each: one for a power supply module, the other to the video input at the back of the DVR -- so two cameras means four cables, four cameras means eight cables, etc. Hiding the DVR in a drawer (depicted by the mfg.) is a visual myth unless the cameras are directly-wired to the DVR and not wireless. The DVR end of the installation is not at all elegant. I still don't know what to do with all those power cords, video cables, and receivers! Each wireless camera has a short power pigtail with a fat connector attached. Passing that through a wall required a hole (about half-inch) drilled through. The camera's power connector mates with the end of the cord leading from a power supply module that plugs into an AC outlet. As to performance, the cameras deliver very good image quality --equivalent to very good Web cams-- that provide enough detail to see what is happening and identify individuals. Nighttime infrared (IR) imaging is automatic and good as well though, as might be expected, is monochrome. Remote access allows viewing of near-realtime video from each camera or easy viewing of recorded video from times the user sets, all through an Internet Explorer browser window. The system performs as advertised and seems reasonably priced, just don't expect a neat installation!

Lorex Edge mini video Security DVR Reviews
Up and running in short order . Cameras work well. Mine are outside and connect nicely through the brick walls. Not super high definition and daylight is clearer than night. The unit installs effortlessly. The menus are not very initiative to navigate but I do get live and recorded views on my iPhone which is a very nice feature.
I would recommend it.

Very good security system . Installation of camera was very easy and once set up it started running easy. Now I can watch my office from where I want. However, the price is high and amazon keep changing the price.

Cons Review
Serious camera signal-drop issues . I am very disappointed with the product. While setup was easy, and quality of the image is good, I have found that the camera signal drops for no apparent reason i.e. the display just blanks out for the camera in question. I have tested the product for 8 weeks now and the signal has dropped 7 times between the two cameras (so I can't even say that possibly it was a defective camera); to re establish the connection, I have to disconnect power to either of the cameras concerned or the unit as a whole. Not my idea of a worry-free reliable security system. The camera may fail me when I need it the most. I am returning the unit this week. I opted for this wireless unit to avoid the inconvenience of wired units. But I guess the 2.4 Ghz wireless camera system is not reliable afterall.
