I honestly didn't mind Eufy at first. Mainly because of the price (I got a great deal) and the fact that things like the doorbell have local storage (no subscription fees). But it's gradually deteriorated over time. Notifications from the video doorbell are delayed by about 30 seconds. The door lock I have works fairly well. But the battery needs to be charged weekly.
Biggest annoyance however is the lack of functional integration with Home Assistant.
Fairly average overall. For the price I paid I'm still ok with it. If I were to start over, I wouldn't go with Eufy.
