Drawbacks
Although this $200 camera enjoys a rating of 4-Stars on Amazon, it has some drawbacks too. The one grouse that many users have is about its basic functions that only includes live feed and treat dispenser. If you want a person alert, barking alert, and selfie alert, you have to opt for a premium package that has a monthly charge.
Some users complain of poor connectivity, bark sensor getting activated by other sounds, poor visibility afforded by the night camera, etc. However, Furbo still commands a 66 percent 5-Star rating on Amazon.
