Super Underrated
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Im really super surprised that this isn't one of the most popular robotic devices on the market. Especially for those who want to check on an animal or are OCD about the state of their house. Other home cameras stay in one place. The best you can get is pan, tilt, and zoom out of even the best cameras. This one enables you to move from room to room and even search for a cat or other animal that might be hiding under a bed. The camera moves up and down vertically so you aren't stuck looking at floor level at items. You can remotely pilot it up to a door and look up to see if the lock is locked or unlocked or if you left the water running in a sink. You can even use it to see if your kids are home after school and are working on their homework or to check in on an elderly person who stays home all day. It has a ton of battery life. I haven't found the end of the useful life even after messing with it for half an hour. I have had it for over a year and the original battery still performs excellently. This thing is the ultimate "check on the status of your house" tool. I sat in a bar in San Juan Puerto Rico and remotely controlled this device all around the downstairs of my house in Ohio and was visually able to verify that everything was exactly as I had left it. This thing is small enough not to trip motion sensors on alarm systems. One of the reviewers said that the tech support for this isn't that good. I can vouch that the tech support I experienced was excellent. I had a "tech" question and called the company and actually talked to one of their real "tech" people, not some person in a far off call center 8 time zones away. Understand that I didn't call because of a problem but a question that I personally had as a IT person. I would give this thing 10 stars because it actually works way better than I thought it would and the battery lasts a very long time.People are amazed that it didn't cost $300 or more when they see what it can do. No, I don't work for the company that makes this. I didn't even buy it from Best Buy, I came across the product and saw the lack of reviews and thought I would vouch for a very well engineered sturdy product. What would improve this product? It would be absolutely perfect if it could climb stairs without a ramp. Get it. You won't be disappointed.

Love it so far
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this I have a camera in my home but it's fixed on the front door with robo I can go all around my home check on my dog and the night vision works good and it's fun to drive I left the room to test it had no problem driving with the camera I didn't look at the charger dock so I was even able to back in of course I later looked lol and u don't have to back in u just drive right up on it like parking a car I normally have been very bad with remote items I can't fly those little helicopters and I run into everything with the cars for some reason I'm a champ with the robo here at home and while out at breakfast my dog is small and well afraid of leafs outside so he's not a big fan right now but he will get use to it like all changes we've made he's a chihuahua anyway so far luv it the only change I'd make is being able to run it on 4G incase there is no wifi I haven tested it but with all the reviews I've never seen it said robo can be run without wifi but thats ok again I have a security system with a camera I can check with 4G so not a problem really

Poor Customer Service
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I received my Robo Buddy and am having a hard time getting it connected to my phone. The remote ID number does not appear on my list of available networks on my cell phone and when entered manually, it says it is out of range. I have tried numerous times to hit the reset button on the robo buddy but it still does not work.
