Great Baby Monitor
on September 19, 2010
Posted by: MonicaT
I received this monitor as a baby shower gift and I absolutely love it. I love that I can set the reciever to vibrate when my daughter gets so loud. I also love how small it is, makes it great for our vacations (doesn't take up much space in the suit case). Great buy, especially for the price.

Terrible
on November 19, 2010

I purchased this monitor because it claimed to have the best range, 2000', of all the other available monitors. There is less then 60 feet between our master bedroom and the baby's room and the monitor can't get a signal. I'm very disappointed. The monitor has lots of great features, but if it can't get signal they have no value.

Better than expected

I have read the complaints about the range of this unit, and I was a bit worried but I figured I would give it a shot. Anyone who really expected a walkie-talkie to get 2000 feet of reception inside a house has high hopes anyway. The range on this works just fine for me. The babies room is upstairs, and I get great reception when I am downstairs, in the yard, or in the bedroom. No you probably won't get the 2000 feet, but you should get plenty of range unless you have a lot of interference, and if so, change channels.
The features of this unit works well too. The temperature monitor is quite handy, as well as the ability to speak to the other unit.
The price of the unit seems a bit steep, and since this is the only monitor that I have bought, I have nothing to compare it to quality wise, only personnel experience.
The one bad thing that I have found with my unit so far is that the parent unit will cut out at random. I will have it sitting on the couch beside me and it will just go completely silent. Usually it will come back on after a few seconds but it has taken it up to a minute a couple times to come back on. I have not dropped the unit or anything, so I know that is not the problem, and I am not moving it when it cuts out so it is some problem with the parent unit itself.

Not the best...

I loved this monitor for the first few months. For the past week, it's started to stop working in the middle of the night. The parent unit just goes silent. Our bedroom is next to the baby's room, so it shouldn't have too much interference! Once you hit the channel button, it seems to work again, but the channel button is on the base that goes in the baby's room, not the parent's which seems pointless. If the channel button was on the parent unit I would have 0 complaints. I love being able to know temperature of the baby's room and I like how you can turn the volume loud or pretty soft.

Great, except when it goes silent

I bought this monitor around Christmas 2010 after the cheap one I was given as a gift shorted out. I love this monitor for the most part. I love knowing the temp in the baby's room and the sound is excellent, but periodically it cuts out during the middle of the night. The temp is still visible, and the display shows that it is working, but there is absolutely no sound coming through the monitor. If it were not for this one problem, I couldn't ask for a better monitor.

Does not work well
on July 30, 2011
Posted by: kimkuzmo
This monitor does not work well at all. The a/v plug that goes into the monitor does not line up or fit in properly. The monitor often loses reception and starts beeping, or just simply doesn't get reception at all. My room is not far from my daughters, and I often hear her crying down the hallway at night, and the monitor is not making a sound at all, and I don't know how long she was crying. Very upsetting. I would not recommend, not worth the money

Don't waste your time!

This monitor works, sometimes. I have had 2 already (thinking the first was just a "lemon" because it really couldn't be that bad). I have woke up to a screaming baby because my monitor stopped working, it is constantly fuzzy, sometimes it just won't work at all and it maybe, just maybe will work in about half the range it is supposed to.

Great for the price

Have had this monitor for over a year and it works as well as expected. I like that I can bring it outside with me while the kids are sleeping and I don't have to plug it in. I had a similar problem as other reviewer (won't work -red light stays on even though plugged in). Called customer service and they helped me reset it. Works great again! Good monitor for the price.
