Seems like it could be a nice system

I had two issues while starting to set up this system. The first issue which I could have lived with was the small screw that connects the stand with the NVR/screen broke off when I was screwing it in, so the stand was no longer secured. Still functional and the screen would still sit up/rest on the stand but it was not secured by the screw. Since the screw broke off I could no longer remove the broken piece of the screw. The screw was very thin and it seemed to be made of very cheap metal, almost like a hard plastic. Very minor issue but a little annoying. Thankfully I hooked up the cameras before actually wiring through the attic because 2 of the longer wires did not function. I made sure they were plugged in properly but would get no signal. The cameras were not the issue because I switched the cameras that were not producing a picture onto wires with cameras that were producing a picture and was able to get a picture. I then switched the picture producing combos onto the NVR/screen ports that were not producing a picture with the faulty wires and was able to get a picture, so ports were not the issue either. After examining the faulty wires I did notice that the zip ties I had removed had possibly damaged the wires. They have been tied so tight that it removed the coating on the wires and I could see the wiring under the coat. I'm not sure if this was the issue but did notice it on both wires that did not work. With that said I was pleased with the quality of the picture. The NVR/screen seemed very nice as did the cameras. I contacted amazon and told the rep I was willing to keep the system as long as they could replace the 2 faulty wires. I was told since this was sold through amazon, but not by amazon they could not do that and I would have to send back the whole system. I did. I wasted a few hours and had to deal with the hassle of sending the whole thing back, now waiting for my refund before I decide if I want to give this system a 2nd shot. If not for the wires I think I would have been very happy with this system but its hard to say as I did not get to fully set it up and test it. I have to question the quality based on the cheap screw and delicate wires, though the rest (and honestly most important parts: cameras and NVR) did seem to be good quality, looked good and produced a good picture. One other minor thing for those wanting a white camera to blend in with your house these are more of a silver color. I really wanted these to work out and was willing to keep them so pretty disappointed this happened.
