These have been on and off Woot for $65 (what I paid) the last couple of months. I bought this model in the brushed nickel to match the test of my door hardware and it has been fantastic. It was one of the easiest smart devices I've set up recently and install, setup only took me about 20-30 minutes.
If someone was twisting my arm to note a con, the only one I think I could come up with is the delay time between your fingerprint positively registering and the lock fully disengaging. There is an immediate beep with a light (green or red depending on access permissions for that person), the sound of a mechanism moving inside, a very brief pause followed by a final mechanism move/click as three lock fully retracts and beeps again. It all happens decently fast but it definitely isn't instantaneous and if you happen to attempt to open the door before the process has finished, it stays locked. That momentary pause between the first mechanism sounds and the final unlock sound still throws me every now and again if I get in too big of a hurry. I'm sure there are YouTube videos that can showcase this process far better than my rambling attempts to describe it.
All of that being said, I love this lock. It isn't perfect but few products are. It's awesome to have the pin code and key backups and setup was a breeze. I would absolutely recommend it at $75 if you didn't want to roll the dice and hope to save $10 with another Woot! listing
