I had that for about a month. Technology was not that great, and provided more frustration than anything.

So if I'm getting the eufy doorbell, does that not work with this keypad as a wifi bridge?
I'm guessing no. Just annoying that I would have an outlet with 2 dumb little eufy bridges next to each other.

I have 2 of these. 1 works very well and have no complaints and other gets stuck 1/3rd of the time. Ymmv.
Build quality is very nice.
Edit: above said, this is a good deal.

The thing doesnt have the door sense functionality so if you have auto lock on it will just lock after a certain amount of time regardless if the door is closed.
It doesnt have the bluetooth or wifi autounlock if you are close.
The lock itself is well built. Finger print reader works 90% of the time on the first try. 99% on second try and 100% by the third try.
For some reason the deadbolt itself gets stuck sometimes and you have to lock and unlock it again manually to unstuck it. Or just force it to unlock but it feels like you are going to break some gear inside.
The battery is rechargeable so after some period of time I'll have to take it out and charge it via micro usb.
It looks like the models shown above are the old ones that dont have the wifi bridge built in. It will be a separate plugin.
I kept it on anyway since it looks better than my prior lock. (And too lazy to change it back).

What if you are outside and it's stuck? Do you just try again, or do you have to use the physical key?

From outside it is fine. If it unlocks itself it is ok. It is when you try to manually unlock from the inside, the thing gets stuck sometimes. It is difficult to explain because everyone is wondering, how can that thing get stuck in the first place??

It's as though the internal gear is stuck in a motion to extend the deadbolt so you have to fight the motor a bit to unlock it manually. However, if you are on the outside and use the fingerprint reader, the motor will just reverse and it will be fine.
I haven't used the keys at all. Not even to try once. They are unique keys because they are half circle shaped, but I only got it for the fast fingerprint reader and the stylish look.
