Looking for quick and easy door sensors (lemmy.world)

Looking for some well priced door sensors. I heard the Xfinity / Comcast ones on ebay do well and also do temperature.

Anyone have any experience with them or know if anything better priced?

If you use Zigbee the Aqara and SONOFF contact sensors are both fairly good in my experience.

The Aqara ones are very small and neat, the SONOFF are a bit larger but cheaper.
