Works well
I love this. I had a deadbolt that used a code but wasn’t linked with the internet. I liked the code because it was near impossible to lock yourself out. It’s also easy to let people in when I go on vacation. Someone needs to feed the cats. This deadbolt is nifty. You can lock and unlock with the internet, you can use Alexa,( I don’t like that you ask alexa and then you also need to say a number code. Would of been nice to just unlock but I get it. You could yell for her to unlock from the outside of the house and anyone could get in) you can use your fingerprint, pass code, or the method of our ancient ancestors, a key. I have a eufy doorbell camera so it pair nicely. You can sync them together and a lock will appear on the camera app when you’re looking in the live view. Just press to unlock. I’ve had no problem with connectivity. I will say a lot of cameras and equipment like this uses 2.5 ghz wifi. So I turn off my 5ghz wifi for the installation. I think it helps to connect easier. Once it’s linked and set up just turn it back on if you want. I have a deco mesh system so it really easy. I also turn of my wifi 6 for the install.

Good Product/Horrible Customer Service
I received a defective lock and reached out to Eufy/Anker products. In a chat with them they agreed to send a replacement but I needed to wait for an email to confirm the details and then the replacement would be shipped. No email received, checked spam, nothing. I called the next day and was told they are still working on it. Never received the email or a replacement so I just bought the same new lock and returned the defective one. Very disappointed.The new working lock is awesome, easy to set up, works well and is relatively inexpensive. I can’t comment on tbe battery life as it’s only been operational for about two weeks.I just hope I don’t need to contact Eufy again based on the experience I had.

Works great and no more Smart hub needed !
I’ve owned the C220 lock for a month and have found it to work really well. It took about 10 minutes to install and no modifications to my door were needed. The lock is well constructed and is heavy. The management app is well done and easy to navigate.Things to note:1. Some older people can have hard to read fingerprints. This is not specific to Eufy. Use a code number for them instead if this is a problem.2. The battery life on my lock has been great as my wifi is close by. The further away the lock is from your WIFI access point, the more demand there is on the batteries. This is why some people report great battery life while others complain it’s terrible. I believe it took 8 batteries.. it should last a long time.3. No more smart hub!! Good riddance. Adding and removing codes or fingerprints is FINALLY easy! This might be the biggest difference.4. The touch keypad CAN be seen in direct sunlight5. I did not try the geofencing but it has the capability, provided everyone in the family has the app on their phone. It could auto-lock and auto unlock if configured to do so.6. I did not test doorbell or camera integration – but it has that feature.Gripes: These are small but need to be noted1. For renters: temporary/scheduled access codes work fine but there is no integration with text messaging (or email) to create the code and send it in a single process. Heck, the app is already managed on your mobile – why not do this? Now I have to separately send a text with all the details when this could have been easier.2. When using a number codes, you have to press the keypad once to wake it up, enter the code, and then press the enter key on the bottom right of the panel. Why do I need to press enter? Why not open the lock after a second if no additional keys are pressed and the code is correct? Now you have to tell potential renters of this requirement to press the enter key. My point is: the enter key is not be obvious to people unfamiliar with the lock.3. On the app, the battery life is shown as a tiny battery picture with lines filled in for battery life remaining. Would it have killed them to put a percentage number next to it?Overall, this is the best lock that I have tried and I have tried about 6 others to date. I hope you found this review useful.

It has been a month or so since I purchased this lock. I wanted to test it for some time before writing a review. And now a month later, I can say definitively that this is the best smart lock in the market.It simply just works.Once I installed the lock, it paired with the eufy app seamlessly. The features I looked for where all found in this lock:1. Lock must be smart (ie. connects to the wifi to allow me to control it remotely and get status if it’s locked or not at night). Being smart, it means I can generate one time codes to let people in remotely over the wifi. This convenience you wont have with a non-smart lock or Bluetooth connected locks. As those require you to be next to the lock to make modifications like add a new entry code or allow someone in.2. Fingerprint entry. This is a game changer in terms of convenience. You want the fingerprint feature as it will save you a ton of time. You don’t have to manually enter digits one at a time. It’s a must have time saver.3. Key pad. In case I want to let a guest in, they can enter using the keypad. I can generate a one time code ahead of time and send it to them via messaging.4. Back up USB power port: In the rare case your batteries run out, this convenient power allows you to power the lock with a USB power bank and let you in the house. Then you can replace the batteries.5. Battery powered: it uses 8xAA batteries, which seems a lot at first, but it means it will last long. It has been 1 month now and the lock is working very well. Using removable batteries makes this product more affordable, which is a huge plus.6. It looks good!7. Customer service has been really kind to me.The above 7 reasons make this lock an unbeatable lock. Yes, it doesn’t have a camera and it doesn’t have a door bell feature, but I already have a doorbell camera in my front door. I use this smart lock in my back door.A note on customer service:Customer service is very good. After I purchased the smart door lock and then after opening it, I realized that my door had an old style drive-in plate instead of the modern square plate. The instructions that came with the product said to contact customer service. My initial thought was that customer service would have a really difficult time to solve my problem. But to my surprised, they were very helpful. There was a little confusion in the beginning, but when they figured out what I was missing, they went above and beyond to help me locate the necessary part and then placed an order for me. This showed me that they really care. I have trust in the brand and the products and now recommend to friends and family!If you are having some doubts or haven’t quite decided on which smart lock you want to use in your home, this is that lock. Get it. You will love it. If you have money and need some more features like video camera, eufy’s got you. Trust me, just get it, you won’t regret. Enjoy the convenience of a modern smart lock for your home, family, and friends.

I recently installed the eufy C220 Smart Lock, and overall, I’m very pleased with its performance. The installation process was straightforward, and the lock offers multiple ways to unlock the door, including fingerprint, keypad, app control, and traditional keys. The fingerprint reader is particularly impressive, providing quick and reliable access.The lock’s design is sleek and modern, fitting well with my home’s aesthetic. The Wi-Fi connectivity ensures I can control and monitor the lock remotely, which adds a layer of convenience and security. The ability to set up multiple codes and fingerprints is a great feature, especially for a household with several members.However, the largest drawback is that the key to lock cannot be rekeyed to match other smart locks in the house. Even if it is the same c220 it cannot match.Despite these minor issues, the eufy C220 Smart Lock is a solid choice for anyone looking to upgrade their home security with smart technology. It offers a good balance of features, reliability, and ease of use.

I was so excited for this lock to arrive, but was so disappointed that it didn’t have an adapter to fit the round whole. I took almost a month to get the adapter shipped to me, so in that time I chiseled the door to fit what I had. I works okay. The fingerprint sensor works about 1 in 10 tries, so I use the code most of the time. The batteries have already needed replacing 4 times so far since I’ve had it… (8 months of battery? Nope, not even a month of moderate use). I like that I can adjust the auto-lock and the lock function is super smooth when it works. I turned off most of the app functions with hopes it would extend the battery. Once the battery starts to die (under 2 weeks) connecting to the app doesn’t work well anyway. Overall, I’m really quite disappointed. One star is too high.
