"I purchased a two camera lorex system with wireless cameras and have since add two more cameras. We live in the country with no close neighbors and we enjoy the feeling of knowing our property is monitored with this system. We love the fact we can rewind events and they are time stamped. I would highly recommend a Lorex camera system to anyone for the peace of mind and feeling of security it provides."
"My Lorex Edge is a a great system. I have 4 cameras, the only issue is the wireless connectivity. It is hard to have direct line of sight and cover all my home. The cameras that are furtherest from my DVR box occasionally lose connectivity due to weather.
All in all I like the system.
I would appreciate software that allow me to view my cameras remotely from my MS Surface with Windows 8.1"
"I presently have 2 other Lorex wireless systems, and with their ease of use and quality decided to purchase the LW482 system. My other systems are 4 channel and I wanted to upgrade to an 8 channel system. Purchasing this at a sale price, plus receiving an additional Lorex discount sealed the deal. Easy to install, no port forwarding issues, or really any IT knowledge required as the Stratus connection takes care of that. Easily connected to my android phone with the Lorex Stratus app and can now remotely watch all my systems easily. I have had no issues with wireless connectivity. The furthest distance between the farthest camera and receiver is approximately 160 feet, and that signal travels through 2 exterior walls and 2 interior walls. I have not experienced any issues using 6 wireless cameras, although 4 is the recommended maximum. I neglected to mention that the DVR that I received was actually an upgraded model from what was shown in the product overview. So I am very pleased. Additionally, whenever I have had an issue that required me to open a ticket I have always received excellent customer service - something I know you will not receive from one of those auction website sellers. All in all I have been very pleased with Lorex and their products."
"product arrived on time and returns were very easy and simple. All questions answered professionally.

"Great system, easy to install and it helps the family feel secures"
"My full HD Lorex Security Surveillance system works very well. The full HD picture is exactly what I have been looking for. The POE cable is easy to run and set up was easy. The cameras are small and easy to mount. I am very happy with my system."
"Overall: Great system for the money! 5 Stars!
Pros:
Camera quality, and construction are very nice, Power over Ethernet eliminates running separate video and power. 100' of Cat5e is more than enough cable for most applications and can be extended to 300'. (just be careful with the jacks!, lil tape on the ends solves that when running the wire thru walls)
Superb video quality in both day and night. Extremely easy to set up, included setup wizards do all the work for you (to configure router/modem) so you can view cameras via Internet or Mobile device.
Very easy to install.
Easily upgrade HD capacity, and they include SATA cable and mounting accessories for 2nd HD.
Very easy to administer the system directly from NVR or via PC client software or via internet. In fact the PC client and Internet versions are easier than the NVR interface.
Cons:
Dome cameras can not be wall mounted, well you can if you don't mind upside down video, no matter how you configure the camera the picture will be upside down. However this was solved by purchasing a dome camera "L" bracket from a 3rd Party.
No PTZ cameras can be installed on this system.
NVR Fan noise is very loud. I thought I wouldn't mind it in my office... but its slightly annoying.
Did not like that the cameras did not come with a waterproof connection. Solved by purchasing small plastic TELCO enclosures.
Also to note:
Unlike others I found Lorex Customer service to be fine.. Yes at times they took longer than average to answer some of my questions but they did solve my problems and addressed issues. (this system was originally offered with a 32" TV/monitor but was changed the weekend I ordered it to a 27" monitor. I was offered a substantial credit for my inconvenience added to the 18% off made it an EXCELLENT deal!)
I highly recommend this LOREX system!!!!!!"
"Lorex security systems and cameras are very easy to setup and provide a quality picture. You can review and save footage without having to stop recording. The system provides that added piece of mind to know your house is safe even while away via remote viewing."
"Great system at a great price"
"I've previously purchased other camera systems to protect my home but the Lorex system is easiest and most practicle. I can login to my system from my phone when I am away and watch or reset my cameras - perfect !"
"Got this system for my home. Best purchase i ever made. Very easy to install, set up and use. I deal with a lot off different camera systems at work and think this is the best system for my home. The moble/phone app is great for viewing/checking in on the house while away or even to see what is going on outside while at home. I would highly recommend (and have to many people) this or any other Lorex system. Of all the different systems on the market, Lorex is my personal favorite."
"I am happy to be able to watch my place any time and from any place with my Lorex camera systems. I bought the first 8 camera system and when the opportunity arose I bought a second system, a 16 channel Advantage. The iPhone application is marvelous. Aside from the piece of mind afforded by the security this brings it has also been a whole lot of fun to be able to video capture coyotes and the many other occurances of a small ranch. "
"Inexpensive, as advertised, came quick and easy to install"
"The 4 IP cameras that I purchased work really well around the house. They keep me updated of activities, while I am at work."
"My system is easy to use and exactly as it was desribed. I like the fact that I can use a touch monitor with my system. I had one issue where the fan in the DVR went out I contacted Lorex and with out question I had a new one in the mail that afternoon. It was NO hassle at all. One other thing I wouldlike to point out the tech service has been great I needed help getting by system hooked up where I can access it from my phone, I contacted tech services and they helped me get it set up and spend alot of time helping me set up my system. I am happy I went with Lorex. "
