Ring Chime Pro Reviews Summary

Setup

Pros:

• "Setup was very easy and it showed it was in a good location."
• "Setup was a breeze."
• "Set up was as easy as 1-2-3!! Just plug into standard outlet, open your RING app, click add device and choose CHIME PRO option."
• "Amazingly easy to set up with smart phone."
• "It was very simple to pair with the router and the Ring doorbell."
• "Configuration was super easy and I had it up and working in less than five minutes."
• "Setup was super easy and I'm not a tech kind of person."

Cons:

• "Setup was difficult.. wouldn't connect to temp ring network."
• "This is by far one of the worse products I’ve brought. Nearly 2 hours to configure it just to hook up to the home WiFi."
• "Directions aren’t easy to follow so I took it down."
• "Tech support had me go through trying to add it back on my network 3 times with the same results."
• "Setup was horrible. Kept on getting frozen on same step."
• "The pairing process was glitchy, and tech support told me I needed to reboot my router because 'you get buildup in your internet'."
• "This chime wouldn’t connect. My husband spent 2.5 hours on the phone with tech support and we still couldn’t get it to work."

Volume and Sound Quality

Pros:

• "The tones are loud and clear."
• "Doubles as a nightlight too."
• "The chime is in my bedroom, and it is loud. I haven’t found a volume control on the app."
• "Pretty convenient. I don’t always have my phone on me for the notifications and was missing doorbells. Gets loud enough to hear throughout the house."
• "I can hear a very loud Ring alert when someone presses the button."
• "There are 2 dozen or so chime sounds to choose from, it is sufficiently loud to be heard on at least 2 floors if not 3."
• "The loud chiming is easy to hear anywhere in the house (900sqft with basement)."

Cons:

• "I'm amazed a device labeled 'pro' that plugs directly into AC has such a weak max volume."
• "It does what it is supposed to - but it really isnt very loud and I am not going around plugging multiple Chimes in outlets."
• "It was easy to install but very poor to hear."
• "The volume on the chime is too low to depend on hearing it."
• "Picked a loud chime sound to hear it when sleeping but it isn't very loud."
• "It’s not very loud at all. My Alexa device does a better job at telling me when the doorbell has been rung then the chime itself."
• "In regards for the notification when someone rings the bell, it's not loud at all."

WiFi Connectivity and Extending

Pros:

• "It's like a box to amplify the wifi."
• "It extended my wifi range, which is what I needed it for."
• "Works great we love it our flood camera gets a way better signal."
• "The Ring Chimes are also WI-FI signal boosters."
• "It does his job I don’t have no issues with my ring camera, the signal runs perfectly downstairs and my camera doesn’t turn off anymore."
• "We have yet to lose connection since it’s been plugged in."
• "Very good product, both of my ring door cameras had weak WiFi signals, when connecting to the chime, the weak signal was now a stronger signal."

Cons:

• "Must have really fast internet for these suckers to work."
• "No other product we own has signal issues in the other 4 locations I tried."
• "I think this is a good product but It constantly disconnects."
• "Bought the pro model to act as an extender. This ended up making the wifi connection worse for the outside cameras it was supposed to boost."
• "Both would constantly drop connection, rarely picking up when someone was at my door."
• "The wifi router is at least 5-60 feet from the front door, and it would connect, but then disconnect randomly."
• "This Chime pro creates its own WiFi hot spot which your ring video doorbell will connect to... this actually caused a weaker connection for my Ring camera."
