The consensus
What reviewers found
Synthesized across the trust-weighted source mix below.
Across the reviewers we read, the Power Pet WiFi sits in an unusual spot: the underlying motorized, ultrasonic-collar hardware draws consistently positive long-term reviews on high-trust r/dogs threads (multiple commenters describe it as one of the few systems built for medium-to-large dogs that holds up to daily abuse), but the Wi-Fi layer is where the consensus breaks down. A medium-trust homedepot.com verified-purchase review states plainly that the door itself is great but the Wi-Fi history and notification features do not work properly, with the company acknowledging an unresolved glitch. Feature-wise, the deadbolt locking system and ultrasonic directional sensing are the most-cited strengths in r/dogs and on hitecpet.com listings — the door only opens when the dog is on a direct approach, which limits the false-open issue that competing systems struggle with.
What reviewers liked
- High-trust r/dogs threads endorse the underlying High Tech Pet hardware as durable under heavy daily use
- Deadbolt locking system widely praised for home security in r/dogs and on petdoors.com listings
- Ultrasonic directional sensing only opens when the dog is on a direct approach, reducing false opens
- Sized for dogs 30–100 lb, addressing a gap in the SureFlap and basic PetSafe lineups
Where it falls short
- homedepot.com verified-purchase review specifically flags broken Wi-Fi history and notification features
- Premium price (~$580) for a product with a 3.9-star Amazon average across only 142 reviews
- Requires an ultrasonic collar transmitter your dog has to wear at all times
- Some r/dogs commenters report dogs being wary of the motor noise and movement during the first weeks

Feature-wise, the deadbolt locking system and ultrasonic directional sensing are the most-cited strengths in r/dogs and on hitecpet.com listings — the door only opens when the dog is on a direct approach, which limits the false-open issue that competing systems struggle with. The 3.9-star Amazon average across 142 reviews is modest for a $580 product, and buyers should weight that against the long-term hardware reputation. If you want a fully motorized dog door for a large dog and treat the app as a nice-to-have rather than a primary feature, the consensus is positive; if the app reliability is what you're paying for, the signal is weaker.

I am! Absolutely loving it. So is my dog. It's his new OCD toy holding up great so far! Been opened 5,000 times (no joke), ...
I've been googling/researching and the only door that seems to have bells and whistles is .. superior pet doors at £680 plus the extras.
