For the price I paid, I think it's worth it! The picture quality is good. It captures the sound pretty good too. It's so helpful when I do some housework in the kitchen when my baby is sleeping in her bedroom upstairs.

Overall good monitor

I bought this monitor a week ago and am overall happy with it. There are a few features which I feel could be improved though.
1. The camera is great in daylight, very clear. The night vision is definitely not as shown in the pictures on the website. It is much more grainy. However, for what you need to see (position/movement of baby) then it works fine.
2. The camera is very hard to position because of how the camera moves on its base, finding a position in the room is difficult. We have a number of shelves/ledges/furniture which I thought I could easily place it on but no position is very good. Ideally you would want to have the camera higher up than the crib, so that you can look down on the baby from an angle, but the camera doesn't allow much downward tilt so I found that I either had to just position it with the camera looking through the bars of the crib or have the camera in a makeshift position - I used tape to stick the camera to the wall at an angle (not really using the base to steady it).
3. I like that there is a feature which allows me to have the monitor on silent and when the baby makes a noise (there are 3 different noise levels) the monitor screen will turn on. My only fault with this is that the monitor is really bright once it turns on so it lights up the room a bit for the other sleeping parent. However, in saying that, it does ensure you will wake up and see that the baby needs attention. Just to add - I can still have the monitor on silent in this case and then turn on the sound if I want to tell if the baby is crying or just making other noises.
3. There is also an audio only feature. I wanted to use this so that once the baby makes a noise over a certain loudness the monitor would alert me (without the screen turning on) but the only way the audio only feature works is to have the sound on all the time anyway. Since a lot of parents use sound machines, including myself, this means that I still have to listen to the sound machine in the babys room through the sound on the monitor. It also means hearing the general baby sounds that they make when they sleep but are not about to wake up/cry etc. Ideally I would prefer not to have to listen to these because the baby might as well be in our room anyway then.

I would still recommend the product as some of the issues I have may be particular to how I would like to use it. It is Very easy to set up and use.

I absolutely love this monitor! Clear picture, and sound. You're able to talk to the baby without entering the room which I love! Overall a good buy and a good price!

Great camera!

I bought this camera a month ago. We haven't had a chance to use the camera very often yet (waiting on the arrival of baby #2), but it seems to work great so far. We love having the two cameras for two bedrooms and only one monitor screen.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this after doing extensive research on several top baby monitors, and it did not disappoint. The range this monitor has is better then most and I can even visit my neighbor without losing connection.
