BOTTOM LINE

The affordable Toucan Wireless Video Doorbell comes with a remote chime, works with Alexa and Google Assistant commands, offers free cloud storage, and is very easy to install.

If you're in the market for a smart doorbell but don't want to deal with wiring and voltage transformers, the Toucan Wireless Video Doorbell is an excellent deal. It runs on a rechargeable battery, installs in minutes, and comes with a wireless remote chime that you can place anywhere in your home or yard. The camera delivers sharp 1080p video, works with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant voice commands, and offers free cloud storage for video recordings. It doesn't support the Apple HomeKit or IFTTT platforms, but the Toucan is still a strong value that earns our Editors' Choice award for affordable wireless video doorbells.

FREE OF WIRES, A WIDE FIELD OF VIEW

At 5.5 by 2.2 by 1.1 inches (HWD), the Toucan doorbell is bigger than the Wemo Smart Video Doorbell (4.9 by 1.7 by 1.4 inches, $249.99), but not quite as tall as the Nest Doorbell Battery (6.3 by 1.8 by 1.0 inches, $179.99). Its enclosure is white with a glossy-black face and has an IP56 weather-resistance rating.
