Okay, so I’ve been using this VLUOO electronic deadbolt for a few months now, and here’s the tea ☕.

The Good: First off, the lock itself is solid—zinc alloy feels sturdy, and the curved design is low-key stylish. The multiple unlock methods (remote, TTLock app, Bluetooth) are clutch when my hands are full with groceries. Installation was a breeze, and the pre-programmed remotes saved me from tech-induced headaches.

The Bad: BUT. The remote battery died faster than my motivation on a Monday. Two months in, and I’m already swapping batteries? Not cool. Also, the app instructions read like hieroglyphics—had to YouTube it like a DIY criminal.

Verdict: Great for keeping snoopy landlords out (lol @ that reviewer), but invest in premium batteries upfront. 7/10, would bolt again.
