I saw a previous deal on this for $99.99, it is now $79.99 at Costco, this is by far the best price I have found on this.

Always been on the fence about this but there is no local storage for photos. Very tempted with the reviews and ease of use especially since I want to use it to share with long distance overseas family.

If and when cloud storage becomes obsolete on Aura what happens to this product. Right now they are advertising it as free unlimited storage but theoretically the hardware sales are funding the cloud portion. What happens if this dries up? None of their competitors like Skylight or Pexar

And this company is not owned by the FAANG companies. It is independently funded. So no additional funding from other income sources or growth. I learned this the hard way with Skydrop a sprinkler system that was advertised as free but shut down servers. Ring went to a subscription model. Belkin shut down WeMo.

Wouldn't this product fall under electronics? So unless the company's going to obligingly vanish within 90 days... https://customerservice.costco.co...-policy%3F

We bought one of these for each of our parents a few years back and they love it. Anyone in the family can download the app and add photos to the frame. Best way to always have updated pics of all the grandkids. Admit that there has been a slight fear of the company folding or trying to move to a subscription model, but so far so good.

In your case there's just not really an alternative is there? Gotta just bite the bullet and worry about 5 years from now 5 years from now. Hell, who knows if any of ours jobs will be here in that time much less a picture frame

Bought this a few months ago at $99, loved it so much I bought another!

Very high quality product, the lack of local storage sucks though. Works great for not just photos but also videos.

It was one of the only decent digital frames I've found. Definitely more than just a cheap tablet set to a photo mode. Highly recommend!

Have this, bought it for $99 when our daughter was born. Bought one for my parents and my wife's parents too. Easy to use. Good deal.

That is a valid concern, but hopefully if that happened someone would find a way to allow it to use an alternative service if they don't follow through on their promise that they would provide tools to allow for basic functionality without their service.

Looks like I found my Mother's Day gifts.

Everywhere else I've found they're over $100 for this model. MSRP is pretty wild at $149.
