I love the way this looks on my front door. My door is purple so the color compliments it and makes everything more elegant. The locking mechanism is smooth and it was easy to rekey to match my current keys so I didn't have to change out every lock. Installing it was a pain but not much different from any other door knob. The packaging it came in was a beast to separate everything from. The only real downside for me is you can't lock it and pull the door closed so need a spare key if mine are in my car.
