We chose AAV for our smart home setup because of their strong reputation. The installation went smoothly, and everything has been working as promised. The customer service was good, but I wish they had a bit more follow-up after installation.

Our experience with AAV was mostly positive. They helped us set up a new home automation system, and it's been great for managing everything in one place. We had a minor issue with the app at first, but their support team resolved it quickly. Definitely recommend them.
