It's been so good that I've installed 3 additional ones at other properties including my own house. I have it on CPVC as well as PEX. There's no subscription cost and every device stays connected to wifi very reliably. It also integrates into the Ring app in addition to its own Moen app.
This is caught toilet water leaks, hose leaks, actual pipe leaks, and my in-laws just over watering the garden. I'm in Atlanta where we had a city-wide freeze resulting in pipes bursting all over the city last winter, my devices were able to consistently track overall water pressure drop across the various days as the city was gradually repairing leaks. That way I was able to give tenants a heads up about why they were experiencing low water pressure and let them know that there was potential water contamination and to boil their water.
Overall, I'm a very big fan. If I had another property I could add this device to, I would do so in a heartbeat.
The downsides are some nuisance alarms or calls but I think it's a minor inconvenience. If you do have this on rentals tho, you do need to make sure you have internet connection while traveling or on the plane just in case it detects some anomaly event and shuts off water. You don't want your tenants without water for an extended amount of time.
How quickly does the Moen unit it detect leaks? Seems like it has different/broader capability to detect leaks without sensors but identification would be slower and less specific. Is that right?

I've had one of these for years. First one failed from water ingress into the electronics. Not sure if it came from outside or from the internal seals, my guess was internal seals. I don't have an expansion tank and get some decent pressure hikes from the hot water heater. I was out of warranty and they replaced it for free anyways.
I would think that if I'm mitigating a significant risk, I should get a discount.
