I don't know where Levana gets off calling this a "vivid HD touch screen." Out of all of the camera/monitor combos we've tried, (and we've tried a lot), this product is one of the worst. Why? Because the image on the screen looks like what you'd see in a FunHouse mirror. Our baby's body was all elongated and stretched out. It was not a realistic or clear or vivid image, let alone a "high definition" image. In addition, if there is any light in your baby's room, the image on the screen is incredibly dark. So dark that you have to stare and squint in order to actually see your child. The only time you can make out anything is when it is pitch black in the room...and again, as I stated above, the image is all warped and distorted. We were really disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Just purchased this monitor to replace a Summer Infant model that had a horrible video feed. The video quality is good as is the sound with hardly any delay. We haven't tested the mulit-cam function and haven't had success with the talk to baby feature but haven't really given it a real go.
For the price, it would be nice to have a pan/tilt option from the monitor screen or wi-fi/internet monitoring. We would have gone with a security/webcam if they didn't have to be hooked up to the net.
As far as baby monitors go, I'd say this is the best option so far.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I purchased this monitor 3 months ago to replace a Summer Infant model that had a horrible video feed. The video quality is good as is the sound with hardly any delay. We haven't tested the multi-cam function and haven't had success with the talk to baby feature but haven't really given it a real go.
It did however recently start start showing "no signal" sometimes I can't get it to work for hours.... I do hope it's just a coincidence as up to this point I really loved it! Also the live chat support was helpful.

Touch screen has terrible response. Very low FPS. Short signal range. Cameras randomly disconnect. Camera is not true pan tilt zoom. Cant control the camera, you can only zoom and explore current view and that is very blury. I would highly recommend you stay away from this system. Returning it tomoroow.

Bought this camera for my daughter as a second camera for a second child. I've had the same Lila monitor and two cameras over a year and has worked fine. Easy to use and set up

Great to add onto our existing system

We bought this camera to add for our second child's room. It was easy to add to the existing system and has worked very well. We do wish that the was a setting on the monitor that would be noise activated for both rooms - it just toggles between the rooms, but the monitor stays on all night, unlike when you only have one camera. Overall a really great system for a good price.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We just bought this monitor (switched from the summer infant one) and love how big the screen is. Also love how we are able to see the temperature in the room so we can always make sure baby is ok.
