 Placement may take practiceOct 09, 2003
By Laura Baker
"Laura Baker 'Shadow Rider"
I just purchased this unit and once I finally got it working I could not be more pleased. Just be warned that it was not as easy in my two story home to just plug one in upstairs and come downstairs with the other and have it work right away. Maybe I just have some "funky" wiring in this house, BUT I had to make about 6 trips up and down those stairs with a friend standing by the unit I wanted in the master bedroom while I tried various plugs upstairs until we finally got the things to work. All the electrical receptacles work fine, so I don't know why it did not work on the first try. Once working they are great...just keep in mind flexibility of placement in the event you have an experience similar to mine. I'm going to order another set to use between the den and my husband's workshop and feel they are a great deal for the cost and so much easier than a "hard wired" system.

 Not for Large Houses With More Than One Electrical CircuitsJan 17, 2006
By John Galle
I bought a set of four Westinghouse intercoms. Usually people buy intercoms because they have a large house and don't want to have to trapes all over it to communicate with other people. These Westinghouse intercoms (and I believe the same goes for the NOVI intercoms) require that all itercoms be on the same electrical circuit (that is, controlled by the same electrical breaker). So, if your kitchen, family room, master bedroom, and garage outlets are on different breakers in your main electrical control panel and you want to set up an intercom system, the Westinghouse system will not work for you.
Intercoms are usually for large houses...large houses usually have more than one electrical circuit for outlets...hence, this product likely will not work for most people. I replaced the Westinghouse intercom system with one by another manufacturer called the WireFree Intercom Reporter...this is a four channel system and it works great...works either with batteries or transformer...it is independent of the electrical circuits.

 Why it does not work on all receptaclesMay 03, 2004
Laura, it did not work on all receptacles because the intercom system demanded that all intercom be on the same circuit. A typical house has more than one circuit. Could be tricky if for example, the master bedroom is not on the same cicruit as the basement.

Sad compared to older ModelsOct 22, 2006
By James C. Titus
Just purchased 3 units , thought they would work as well as the Novi units they were replacing however they have absolutely no range . My original Novi 2 channel units worked well from a distance of approx 110 ft from house to barn , these only work in the same room... I am attempting to return these currently.

 Mine works just fineJan 31, 2006
By K. S. Rodgers
I have a 4300 square foot home. I have purchased Novi wireless intercoms in the past and need to add to them. One has been in the room above the garage, one in the kitchen, and one in the basement near the computers. Those locations are not on the same circuit. I have never had any trouble getting them to work -- I've just had a couple wear out. In fact, at our old house, we could pick up communications from our neighbors across the street who had a set and we finally each decided which channel we'd use so we didn't hear each other's conversations! You might want to remember that when you use them! Clearly our neighbors intercoms weren't on the same circuit -- they weren't even in the same house! Maybe the newer ones (mine are at least six years old, but they are Novi wireless intercoms that you plug into the wall) have changed, but I've never had a problem like the one described. Maybe it's peculiar to the Westinghouse brand.
