The fall detection is what made me go with them, and it's properly sensitive without going off every time my dad sits down hard in his chair. I've used a couple of these over the years for clients and this is the first one that doesn't set off false alarms every other day. The alarm button is easy to find by feel too, which matters with older hands. Set up took about ten minutes.
Read moreI purchased the alarm watch for my wife some weeks ago. The item was not quite as the pictures had suggested, the screen is smaller than I had expected and the strap feels rather flimsy. The support line was courteous but it took several days to get a reply about the strap. I would have expected a more accurate description.
Read moreCompared with the cheaper sets I've seen in the shops, this is dearer up front but the monitoring cost works out fair over the year. I've worked in care for a while so I know how much the alarm needs to be reliable. The button is positioned well and the fall detection has picked up test drops without false alarms. Signing up was straightforward and the monitoring team answered quickly when I rang.
Read moreMy sister recommended these and the monitoring has been dependable so far. The sign up was simple enough once I had my details to hand. I would call it reasonably priced for what's offered.
Needed it for my gran after she had a fall at her flat and I was worried about her being on her own. Booked it through the site on my phone and it was sorted quick. The app is a bit clunky when you're setting up the contacts but it got there in the end.
Compared with the other providers I've looked at, the monthly cost here is lower for what's included. I've been through the product area for my elderly neighbour so I know what to look for. The alarm pendant is sturdy and the activity tracking is a nice extra. Only small gripe is the app notifications can be a bit slow.
Dad had a couple of falls at home and we needed something he would actually wear. First time using them, so I wasn't sure what to expect. The sign up asked a lot of questions but the process was clear enough and the watch arrived ready to pair. Dad says it's comfortable enough to forget about, which is the main thing. Would use them again.
Compared with the bigger brand my mate uses, this came out a fair bit cheaper for the same sort of monitoring. The sign up was quick and I liked that I could do it all on the site without ringing anyone. The app is a bit clunky to navigate, mind, but the alarm itself works properly. Had no real problems.
Bought the alarm watch for my nan on Friday, she's already wearing it. Ordering was easy on my phone and it turned up in a couple of days. The app took a bit of fiddling to link to her account but got there in the end. Happy with it.
The activity tracking caught me off guard, I didn't expect it to log steps and sleep this well for a safety device. I've been wearing it on the way to work and it's been fine. The charge lasts a couple of days which is decent. Small niggle is the wristband rubs a bit after a long day, but otherwise it's a solid buy.
