Pros & Cons
Pros
Sensitivity and loudness controls. First sign of movement gives one bark. Baritone bark is very impressive!
It senses through my front and patio door. It is also pointed towards my driveway. It's comforting to know when someone is on or around our porch.
The only drawback i see is that the barking is too repetitive. The only downside is the variation of dog sounds. Only thing that would make it better is it's repitition.
When you plug him in, it takes about 30 seconds and he is ready to go. I have him nestled in a corner where a plastic container blocks a portion of his reach.
Cons
Only sensor 3 feet from interior wall. It cannot distinquish between you walking around your house and a burglar outside. My doors are too think or the metallic doors prevent rex from activating even on the strongest (most sensitive) setting.
The sound is too fake. It was muffled and flat out disappointing. The barking definitely sounds recorded, and if you turn up the volume, the barking sound is muffled, making it even more obvious it is a contraptions d not a dog.

I bought my rex many years ago when the price was considerably lower and there was no silly rain forest option
Packaging/appearance
I initially gave a one star review because the power cord wasnt contained in the box

I was hesitant because i know people with the smaller sleeker type barking devices and theyve always sounded so fake and electronic that i figured theyd never convince anyone

If you need the realistic sound of a dog barking this is your device

If i could pick one improvement id easily pay more money for the same device but with a remote control panic button so that if my mom felt like she heard something she could set the dog off even if what she heard wasnt in range of the motion detector

I know there are devices out there with that option but they sound like crap
