It supports a front door button (both lighted and non-lighted) as well as a back door button (optional). It can be setup to play any particular song or sound, or for more variety, it can sequence through any one of six different groups: Classic Chimes, Holiday, Halloween, Old Favorites, Fun Sounds, and Special Occasions. But the real versatility of this doorbell comes with its unique programmable feature. Using the built in microphone or the audio input jack, you can easily record or download up to 6 different songs or sounds - whatever you want!

    Sounds good. Hooked up 2 8ohm speakers and the amp worked fine
    Frankie A -- Brooklyn NY   12/17/2012
    Great unit -- only negative, they could have designed more to look like a standard door chime rather than a piece of electrical equipment; aesthetically it is lacking. My girlf is so diappointed in the look that I may just go out and buy a fancy unit with the tubular bells that hand down from the box and see if I can gut it and hide this unit inside it.
    Henry -- Phoenix   12/15/2012
    I was very interested in this product until I learned that it required wired buttons. If they made a wireless model for the right price, I would have bought it.
    CESAR -- willemstad, XX   10/21/2012
    iChime is easy to install and to use.The fist one I received was defective and I sent it back. The response was fast and good and I am using my iChime with a lot of satsfaction.
    MEHUL -- philadelphia, PA   10/5/2012
    This is very nice doorbel.. I send this bell to my friend to india.. he is so appriciate..
    KWOK TE -- singapore, XX   4/22/2012
    The item has been giving me problems since it was installed. Every now and then it just goes off with no reason and sometimes happems when the main door is being closed. Even though I had contacted the manufacturer and followed their advice in rewiring, the problem persists. I just hope it doesn;t go off in the middle of the night while we are sleeping.
    LINE -- laval, QC   4/1/2012
    Exactly what I was looking for. Good sound library and the possibility of making our own. Quick shipment. Thanks!
    DAVID -- redwater, AB   2/10/2012
    This item was beyond expectations. The instructions were easily followed, the installation went well and the sounds are great.
    MICHAEL -- fulton, NY   11/24/2011
    Easy to install. Easy to use. Had it on halloween tune's and the kid's loved it. Had a couple of friend's ask where I bought it. Haven't used the download music part of it yet
    DAVID -- ivanhoe, XX   10/26/2011
    Excellent product. Easy to install and very clear instructions.
    RICHARD -- carmichael, CA   10/5/2011
    Bought this for my gf's new house. She loves it. She is very into Christmas and will actually use these chimes in the summer. The sounds are good quality and (even though I've read negative reviews regarding the volume) the volume is plenty loud enough. We have not tried to record anything to use as a door chime, so I cannot comment on that feature.
    MONICA -- cincinnati, OH   9/15/2011
    It is okay, a bit af a pain to change the chimes
    CHRISTINE -- london, XX   8/26/2011

    DAVID -- karabah, XX   5/25/2011
    Great product & easy to install
    SERGIO -- casalanguida, XX   5/22/2011
    This Item is exactly what I was looking for.I was planning on building something similar myself before finding this.It works great,its very simple to install(although I am a D.I.Y. man).I think the only drawback is the price tag + shipping and customs of course.
    NATHAN -- fresno, CA   2/18/2011
    This door bell has a lot of features and a lot of sounds to choose from. Were it not for this fact, I'd have given it a lower rating due to very poor build quality and relatively poor sound quality. I received mine with a non-functioning volume switch. I found no mention of a warranty in the product documentation. Though I'm sure Smarthome would have replaced it without any problem, I decided to see if I could fix the problem myself. Luckily, I was able to.
    VERONICA -- york, ME   1/17/2011
    absolutely LOVE this doorbell!!! Everyone who we show wants one. soooooo happy I stumbled upon it, Thank you I-chime!!!!
    L' -- keller, TX   10/14/2010
    Very pleased with service and product.
