There are few things worth protecting more than your home, but investing in a whole-home security system can really hurt your budget. Today, you can save a bunch on a great one. Best Buy is selling the SimpliSafe Shield home security system for $215, down from a list price of $370 and the best price we’ve ever seen for this bundle.
This 11-piece security system comes with a whole lineup of devices and features to protect your home. The connected mobile app isn’t required, but if you opt for a subscription, it allows you to arm and disarm the system from anywhere, while 24/7 professional monitoring will keep an eye on your home even when you can’t. Intelligent sensors can tell if a pet or a person has entered the room, and only set off an alert at a sign of a human intruder. In addition, Alexa compatibility allows you to control the system using just your voice.
This system includes a base station and a key pad, two motion sensors, six entry sensors, and a fob. In our review, we gave it 4 stars out of 5, praising it for its “simple and sophisticated package,” as well as its easy setup and subscription-free option. We also liked its easy expandability via a variety of sensors and add-ons, including cameras and doorbells. But even without any extra equipment, this package should protect every room and entryway for most homes.
