Would be perfect with a couple tweaks

We did a lot of research on monitors before deciding on the Levana Stella. After using it for a couple months, we are very pleased with our choice. There are definitely a lot of great features - great picture, amazing sound (we can hear baby breathing on even the lowest settings), excellent battery life on the screen, etc. This would be a perfect product with just a couple small tweaks. First, at only 6 feet, the camera cord is way too short - the only thing it would work for is sitting the camera on a tall dresser or bookshelf (which in our case, we don't have as an option). Otherwise, well, what outlets are only 6 feet from the upper corner of the room? After MUCH searching, we were able to find a DC extension cable, but would be nice if the cord were just 10 or 12 feet to begin with. The other issue is that the AC adapter faces to the side when plugged in; this isn't something you'd think would be an issue, but it makes it impossible to use a safety outlet cover since it won't fit. Again, might not be an issue if the outlet happened to be hidden behind furniture, but that's not always the case.
That said, I would definitely recommend this product to friends, but it would be great if Levana could fix these two small issues in future models (the plug direction in particular should be easy, as many other models - and even, it appears, some sellers' versions of the Stella - come with downward-facing plugs already).

We've been using this monitor for 3 months and couldn't be happier. The image is clear, day or night. The sound is terrific. And we love having the ability to move the camera and talk to our baby remotely. The only (slight) negative I would give this monitor is that it doesn't pan downwards very much (maybe 25 degrees or so) which means you sometimes have to get creative with its positioning to properly see baby in the crib. All things considered, we love it and it gives us a constant link to our baby regardless of what room we're in.

Easy to use. Would like to be able to cut off the sound indicator light at night. It's bright enough to light up our room at night and disrupt sleep.

So far this monitor has been great! We needed to update due to our previous different brand monitor not reaching all areas in our new house. I also needed two cameras for our upcoming baby due this summer. Lots of great features and I am able to go anywhere in my house and still get a single (3600sq). Hopefully I'll get a single outside and this monitor will be everything I wanted!

We bought our monitor about a month ago and so far we've been very happy with it. We have a toddler that's almost three but still in her crib, so we just had to figure out how to mount it so that we can watch her for day naps and overnight. Love the fact that you can adjust the camera angle (pan/tilt) and love the PEEP mode. We have a three story home and it works great on every level!

Just received this monitor at my baby shower and set it up last night. It was very simple to set up and so far is pretty easy to use. The picture wasn't as clear as I was expecting (but I don't have anything to compare it to because I've never had a baby monitor before). I like the range of the camera but I wish the zoom was a little more clear/closer. The screen size is nice and I like that you can talk through the monitor. Hopefully it holds up well over time!
