It also lets you talk and listen to visitors and boasts intelligent alerts that let you know when someone is too close to your house.
Promising review: “I did a lot of research before buying this doorbell and I am happy that I did. It definitely provides all quality as described. It was easy to install and the quality of the video is outstanding. I live on a very busy street and the doorbell does not alert me to every passing car or person walking their dog. I get alerts only when someone is on my walkway or porch. I can watch the live feed at any time or go back and review videos at any time because of the 24/7 recording. I highly recommend it!” —Target reviewer
Price: $229

Promising review: “This clock is great! Not too big, not too small. It’s a little rustic, but could go with many decor styles. I purchased it for our cabin, which has a lot of different colored wood everywhere. I think it looks great. It’s also a very good price for the size (I also got it on sale). I’m very happy with it.” —Target reviewer
Price: $35
