I bought a Lorex system back in 2016 and have been happy with it, set it and forget it. I started playing with some Reolink cams to test/eval and then would order some new models to see how they performed. For general home user needs, i think Reolink is best option with various models to meet your use case, ease of setup/manageability, and the mobile app and remote access is all pretty easy. Not to mention they have active support and updates, and seem to be always pushing to further their development for capabilities. You could get a system with the “add-on” cams and pair that with some specialty cams to meet your needs/use case.

Finally got all 15 cams up and running. I have 1 left, but I'm not going to reinstall it as it has a cracked lens. Since 1 of my cams is a dual lens with 2 feeds, that allows me to run the 16 cam view on my monitor.
But that's not what I came to post about. My cams "paid off" this AM. We had a pretty good wind storm here yesterday. Tragically, my wife had a $3 garden flag blow away. I was able to track it blowing around the yard/neighborhood and tracked it down and found it in the much neglected side yard/garden. Thank goodness all the work I've put in with our system allowed me to save the day...![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/IconLOL.gif)
