Wish I could give negative stars!!! I bought this product because we have an in ground pool that isn’t fenced off separately from the rest of the yard. I have kids, they can swim great, but I also have dogs. I emailed the manufacturer, sent measurements of my pool, got a reply saying I needed 2 alarms for the size of my pool and they told me exactly where to put them. I did exactly that!! I tested them, as the instructions say, they went off. Instructions say they CAN be used with a solar cover. So the solar cover was on, alarms were installed and “working” my 26 lb French bulldog fell into our pool. Crickets!!! No alarms sounded!!! seconds later, not 100 sure exactly how long, it happened so fast, I couldn’t see him, went to the pool and saw him AT THE BOTTOM OF MY DEEP END!!! I jumped in, pulled him out, tried CPR He didn’t make it he was 7 months old! My family is CRUSHED!!! The alarm went off when I jumped in to save my dog but I DIDN’T go off when he fell in!!!! What if this was your toddler?? My daughter weighs 30lbs!!! These will give you a VERY FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY!!! Beware!!!! So now we've lost our cherished family pet, $4,000 we spent on the pup and hundreds spent on these worthless alarms!!!!
