Let me start by saying this mount saved my security deposit! As someone who's moved apartments 3 times in 5 years, drilling holes was never an option. The stainless steel build feels premium when you hold it - like it could survive a zombie apocalypse.

The installation was... interesting. Like other reviewers mentioned, the complete lack of instructions had me playing a guessing game for 20 minutes. Pro tip: The 'anti-theft steel sheet' doubles as a case opener - something I only discovered after watching a random YouTube tutorial.

My Blink doorbell fits snugly, but getting it clicked into place required more force than I expected. Once installed though? Rock solid. I've had delivery guys accidentally bump into it multiple times with zero issues.

Now the elephant in the room - the 'anti-theft' claim is... optimistic at best. While it's true thieves can't remove it from the side when the door's closed, anyone determined enough could still pop it off from the front with basic tools. For casual theft prevention though? It does the job.

The biggest win? No more dead batteries every month! Unlike some reviewers, mine lasts about 3 months between charges because the mount doesn't block any sensors. Just make sure your door thickness is between 0.78-2.36 inches - my friend learned this the hard way when it wouldn't fit her vintage apartment door.

Cosmetically, it's not winning any design awards. The visible screws and metal plate give my front door a slightly industrial look that my interior designer friend visibly cringed at. But hey, function over form!

Final verdict? If you're a renter who wants a drill-free solution that deters casual theft, this is absolutely worth it at its price point. Just don't expect Fort Knox-level security.
