How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings, help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyses reviews to verify trustworthiness.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 May 2021
It purchased this to power the latest Wired Ring Video Doorbell (https://smile.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08LR3G17D).
I wired it in, and it powers the doorbell. Can't ask for much more than that.

3.0 out of 5 starsDoes exactly what it claims, but with a couple of issues.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 December 2021
Firstly, if you're looking for a transformer for your video doorbell then this fits the bill perfectly.

You could just stop reading at the end of the first paragraph if you wished. However, the thing about this is that it is a branded product which is priced accordingly. About £8 to £10 more than the market average for such things, which I found out later to my annoyance. The second thing is that even in a ten year old consumer unit, the retaining clip does not fit. Luckily the face plate for my consumer unit also acts a retainer so it wasn't that great of an issue.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to fit. Needs a bit of know how
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 June 2021
Verified Purchase
This was simple enough to fit but you have to be prepared to drill holes into the plastic wall mount and counter sink your screws to make it fit. It can be mounted into a fuse board but I did not have space and would have needed an electrician for that.
Easy ho follow instructions and worked first go.

5.0 out of 5 stars A bit fiddly to attach the wire
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 March 2022
Verified Purchase
The media could not be loaded.
 You can buy cheaper doorbell transformers for under £10 but some make a humming noise and more annoying especially when it's quiet. The transformer requires small thin phillips head screwdriver to attach the wires for power. which most household wouldn't have readily available.. I've wired to a 3 pin UK plug for power in put.

4.0 out of 5 stars “Rail “ mounted transformer.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 December 2021
Verified Purchase
Be aware that this transformer is intended to be “rail mounted” on a wall strip.
( I was able to make one up from a strip of metal, then fixed to the wall).
Easy connections for wiring up - but it has no cover ( to protect from water, dust etc).

5.0 out of 5 stars Genuine Ring Transformer
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 December 2021
Verified Purchase
I bought this for the Wired Video Doorbell. Slightly more expensive than other brands but I wanted to ensure compatibility and that the doorbell was supplied with the maximum voltage. I mounted the transformer in a wylex double din enclosure and used 5 metres of two core 0.75mm stranded copper cable to get minimum voltage drop at the doorbell. The Ring App health reports 23v.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant quiet transformer
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 February 2022
Verified Purchase
This transformer is very easy to install if you know how to wire your consumer unit box, but I recommend using a qualified electrician if you're not familiar with consumer units. The transformer is very quiet compared to some other transformers, but it's also double the price of others too. This not only works with Amazon's Ring doorbell, but it will work with other doorbell's too. I mounted the transformer to an external din rail mount, but you can also mount it inside of the consumer unit.

Great but of kit, only uses one slot up on my board where as the older version uses two

Made fitting it a lot easier than moving all the MCBs across at least

Does the job and looks good

1.0 out of 5 stars Faulty but Amazon refuses to honour law as 30days has passed
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 August 2022
Verified Purchase
Electrician went to fit new doorbell amongst lots of other things and after wiring up this transformer it makes a continuous buzzing and high pitched noise so much so that you can't leave it plugged in or it's all you can hear.

Amazon customer service refused to deal with it as it's past 30 days, even though it's clearly faulty they state that is there rules and nothing they will do about it even if it is faulty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exactly what it's supposed to be.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 May 2022
Verified Purchase
Its hard to write a review for a product like this. If you need it, there isn't really an alternative so the cost becomes somewhat irrelevant. It has one purpose and it does exactly what it's supposed yo do. As regards fitting it...physically it just clicks into place on the fuse board. Having said that...a lot of people would be better off getting an electrician to fit it for peace of mind.
But five stars alm round because it does everything the way its supposed to. Haven't had any issues yet after a months use of the ring doorbell.
