I bought this lock two years ago when we bought our new house. We had the same product on our old house but in a different finish. First of all, I love not having to carry keys. Second, you never have to worry if the door is locked because it does it on its own. I really enjoy this feature as I have a toddler who I now trying to get outside all the time and he I a little too short to reach the deadbolt. I also love kwiksets rekeying feature. I will never buy another kind of lock. The only bad thing I can think of is that if the door isn't perfectly straight or if he deadbolt hole is slightly off, there might be some locking issues. We currently have a large wooden door with glass and the change in season causes it to shrink and swell. This is not any fault with the lock itself only the door. But the shifting issue causes the lock not to work at times. Overall I would and do recommend this lock and any other kwiksets deadbolt lock to others.
