"Matt was, in a word, fabulous. Pioneer no longer makes TVs. I absolutely love this TV because of the picture, etc. so didn't want to give up on it quite yet. I called Matt and he came over to diagnose the problem. He was up front with me saying that the board that needed to be replaced was extremely expensive and may not be worth replacing. He did say, however, that there is a board re-manufacturing company that may be able to fix the board I had at a much cheaper cost. He sent the board, they repaired it and I have my TV like new again. I can't say enough about Matt and his willingness to find a solution without having to go out and purchase a TV that may not have been as good. I highly recommend him!"

"I was on the market for a security system and this one seemed easy enough to install.......went through the process and some of the window sensors were not working. I called Customer Support who was very friendly and we went through the entire process again...this time other window sensors did not work. This went on for a week or so...then the door senors stopped working....than the motion sensor stopped working...at no time in over a month did I have a fully operational security system. As I was about to return the system I was told they have "new" sensors and they just realized they received a bad batch and are working with another company.....Gave it a try....and same issue returned....some sensors worked....some didn't. I finally returned the system and stopped getting emails.....only to find that they were still billing my credit card even after I returned the equipment. Very nice people and very understanding.....unfortunately their product is not up to par. While we do have a large home, it's an open concept and the sensors that weren't working were no more than 15ft away from the base. The previous owners of my house had a wireless system with no issues at all.....I'm going to be using that company going forward."

Home Automation questions, answered by experts

One significant drawback of home automation is the increased risk of cybersecurity threats. With more connected devices in our homes, there's a greater chance that hackers might try to exploit vulnerabilities to access personal data or even control your devices. If you don't secure your smart gadgets properly, they can become entry points for cyberattacks, risking your privacy and safety. Moreover, technology isn't perfect. Sometimes, systems can malfunction or experience connectivity issues, disrupting your daily routines. The upfront cost of buying and installing smart devices can also be a hurdle for some people. 

While smart doorbells offer security and convenience, they come with disadvantages. Most non-wired options rely on a stable internet connection, making them vulnerable to outages. The same applies to wired devices that depend on power, but most models have a backup battery. There is also the privacy issue, as these devices constantly capture video and audio around the front door, which could be a pro or con. Considering these factors is essential before moving forward with installation.

Costs depend on unit size, repair complexity, labor, and whether replacement parts are needed.

Yes, many installations offer mobile and cloud-based access for real-time monitoring.

DIY is possible for wireless systems. Professional installation ensures proper wiring and system configuration.
