"A good robovac is a life changer. Even a $350 basic S8. It is a great place to start. ... I promise you that you will not be disappointed by a basic S8. It will change your life even if it can't fit under every piece of furniture you own. ... My two S8s just finished vacuuming our entire house in about 46 minutes. ... While my floors were being cleaned, I sat comfortably on our patio in the cool shade with a slight breeze and composed my far too long response to you while sipping a diet soda and relaxing. ... I will have to spend about four minutes maintaining my two S8s. This will be my entire contribution to my home floor cleaning effort for today. Four minutes!"
"Like 500$ these robots are currently the steal of the century ... You can get a mova p10 pro ultra (cannot remove its mops), equivalent to the l40/x40 for 500$ after a discount code"
"I got the Q5 Pro for $139. ... costs $450 less than what I paid for the S6 ... it is the best value option out there imo."

"Can't see it at all! ... it is 100% hidden away. ... if it wasn't for seeing the bottom .25" of the back camera you wouldn't know it's there"
"Super easy. ... Took about 20-30 minutes"
"Was easily able to run the wires on the top, press it behind the header with the spudger they gave and make it look nice. Then on the liftgate theres a plastic cover panel you can take off to bundle the extra wire and make the drop to the camera really nice and clean."

"i have had the BlackVue DR970x Plus which proved bulletproof during the hottest Summer on record last year. my credit cards and ID’s all had to be replaced because they melted and warped, but the BlackVue keeps running without issues."
"my VIOFO A119 V3 has been going strong for the past 4+ years with no issues in the heat."
"it can't be beaten in the Australian heat here"

"STARVIS2 sensor is amazing"
"Coincidentally, a few months later, someone tried that, they jumped out of our lane behind me, to try to get in front me, and cut me off going into a construction zone... And slammed into me. ... He tried to claim I sped up to cut him off. ... I showed the dual camera video to both insurance companies, and they the both decided it was entirely his fault. ... Dual cams are awesome."
"Viofo a129 is by far the best image quality ive seen in a dashcam"

"i want the best resolution camera back there, and the dual ones out there, including fitcamx, all have 1080p res. the viofo is 4k ... the last 5 cars have all had front and rear cameras, and at least 3 times we got punted in the rear, not once in the front. one time some dumbass ran in to us at the wendys drive thru. another was when we were stopped at a red lite."
"But both work great and I would 100% get front and rear."

"We bought a S7 and it broke down just a little over a year. ... Then it broke down again after a couple of months and we gave up on it."
"after about a year the main brush no longer spins well enough on carpet. ... It's like the motor that runs that brush wears out."
"Battery did start crapping itself after 2 years"

"this video quality trash for a $200 dashcam? ... You can't even make out the license plate of the car that turned in front of me"
"very shitty video quality"
"during night time it recorded like a potato."

"It does NOT handle the Florida heat at all. ... Constant shutdowns while driving and parked have rendered it absolutely useless. ... Viofo's solution? Kick it down to 1080 / 2k and hope works. It did not. ... The camera is seriously flawed."
"Garmin Mini 2 purple video. There are tons of reports of this happening and mine started doing this about 2.5 years in. ... If u press on the glass of the camera it goes away and then comes back a bit later while driving."
"I don’t think I can ever trust that it’s recording again without seeing the screen pop on briefly few a few seconds."

"It's also extremely slow with Wi-Fi transfer"
"App is a little wonky sometimes"
expletives 0.5Get a VIOFO and hardwire kit. It can do a type of sentry mode if it has constant power. I use the 119 and 129 front and rears on my vehicles, no problems in a few years so far.
Viofo 2 channel(front and rear) in my cars. Been running for years with no issues. I believe the specific models are the A29 Pro. And a plus. Can be had for around $150-175. Set and forget. I’ve caught lots of crazy drivers to watch later too as a bonus!
69AssociatedDetail25 0.1I've not got a rear camera, but I'm more than happy with my Viofo A129 Plus. They've sponsored a few YouTube channels, so you can probably get a discount through one of their promo codes.
Yeah they're not cheap, but worth it in my opinion. I think they're also the only brand to use capacitors instead of batteries, which gives me some extra confidence that my car won't randomly catch fire on a hot day.
bsibe2006 0.1I just ordered this with a viofo a129 plus from them for my 23 premium. Hopefully I got the right adapter.
bstyledevi 0.1I've got the Viofo A129 Plus (front cam only). I've had it in three different cars now and haven't had an issue yet. Fits perfectly up behind the rearview mirror so it's not always in your face. The app leaves a little to be desired, but you get what you pay for. Video quality is great.

Complete_Gear_7063 0.1Viofo 129 plus with hardwire kit
CrypticClif 0.1Viofo brands are very reliable and one of the most common ones. I have the Viofo 129 because I figured 1440p was enough quality, and I wasn't wrong. The one above is 4k resolution. Easy install and even easier to tuck the wires. If you care enough though, their hardwiring is a seperate buy, but i heard most dash cams being hardwired in tend to always trickle battery power no matter what.
deathbatdrummer 0.1This is just straight up false. [Almost EVERYONE is Wasting Money on Dash Cams.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4AnyhHl3_tE) Personally use a Viofo 119v3, which is 150ish. Superb dashcam, and if you want one with a rear cam too you can get the a129 plus for under 300.
Emotional-Start7994 0.1I have a Viofo A129 Plus 1440p front, and 1080p rear. Very discreetly tucked away behind my rear view mirror. I've had it for over 2 years now and it still works great. It has a GPS base which also provides power. And I have a polarising filter that clips over the lens too which helps reduce dashboard reflections (was a separate purchase). They now do an A329 which you may want to look at which is 4K and even better quality than the A129 (and A229). However it's quite expensive at just under £350.
Hawvy 0.1I’ve had the Viofo A129 Plus for over three years and I love it. My only hang up is that the WiFi is pretty slow when downloading the video files, so I got one of those mini SD card readers that you can plug into your phone and it’s so much easier, faster and you can download multiple video files at one time to your phone.
Honda_Driver_2015 0.1VIOFO has held up great so far. Matter of fact I bought two of them one for my wife's car.
