The best monitor for you baby!!
on February 21, 2021
Posted by: Jaimee
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Huge thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for sending me this baby monitor to review. First off this monitor is amazing super high-tech and comes with so many amazing features: upgraded camera quality, night vision, 2 way audio so you can talk/soothe your baby/play music right through the camera! It took me maybe 10 minutes to get it completely setup and connected, the app is very user-friendly and easy to navigate which I appreciate and the image quality is amazing so clear you can see everything. Also I really like that this monitor came with a floor stand it’s very sturdy and easy to move around so you’re able to get the best angle to see baby and you don’t have to put any holes in your wall 10/10 for that! This is my first time using a monitor that comes with sleep tracking insights so it’s able to track when you lay your baby down, how many times they woke up and how long it takes them to go to sleep right through the app so helpful for answering your doctors questions or when you’re trying to figure out your routine with baby you can also use the sleep insights to talk to sleep experts that can help you which is amazing especially for first time parents or even 5th time parents every baby is so different and they are able to help 24/7! But hands down the BEST FEATURE and my favorite is the fact that this monitor can track your babies breathing in real time it eases my anxiety so much, So how it works is it comes with a soft breathing band you wrap around your babies torso and the camera uses the design around the band(that means no sensors near baby) to monitor their bpm (breaths per minute) and it will alert you if your baby stops breathing which is AMAZING every parent has that worry and the fact that you can check it right on the app any time!!! My second most used feature is the 2 way audio I use it to talk to my baby when I’m at work or just to smooth her while I’m in the other room and she loves it! I’ve only been using this for about a month now but I can’t recommend it enough 10/10 it has become our permanent monitor and the only one we’re using from now on! I have zero complaints!

BEST. MONITOR. EVER.
on February 22, 2021

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This monitor has it all. Clear picture? Check. Breathing detection? Check. Top notch app? Definitely check. This monitor comes with a floor stand, which I love! We’re in the process of moving and not having to anchor it to the wall at our temporary home is an awesome bonus. I also like the safety of fewer cords exposed. The app is absolutely incredible. Not only can I turn it on from my phone, it sends clear notifications and has a strong alert for any instance that baby may not be breathing. While I really like the idea of the breathing band, our daughter sleeps in a sleep sack currently and we’ve followed the instructions to not use the band with the extra layer. I’m excited to transition our baby out of the sleep sack and make more use of this awesome feature! The insights that the app provides not only gives a great summary of baby’s sleep, but also fun memories to look back on! The photo quality is unmatched in the market today. Overall I’m really impressed with this monitor and will be highly recommending it to all of our family and friends. Thank you Stellar Product Testing Panel for giving us the opportunity to test this monitor.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a mama to 6 kids aged 12 years to 12 months. I've been through what seems like every monitor imaginable.
I was given the opportunity to test this Nanit Video Monitor out thanks to the Stellar Reviews testing panel.
First of all, Wow. Just Wow. I'm honestly blown away. The App for starters is amazing. It doesn't skip a beat. The set up was very easy for both the app and camera itself.
What really blew me away was the insights and memories! It hyper lapses baby's entire day. I got to see just how poorly our babe was sleeping. And also see how poorly I was also sleeping, not that I needed reminding. But it was an absolute eye opener that maybe it was time to sleep train. He was 11 months old and only sleeping 1.5 hours at a time.
The breathing band is seriously neat. We ended up purchasing the sleepsack through nanit to use with the monitor. Knowing he is safe is our #1 priority. It will alert us if anything is awry, and let's us know when he is moving and so on.
The camera can also be customized to only sense the crib area for movement.
And a massive plus, the audio will stay on in the background on your phone even when you close out your screen. There is just so much that I can't even describe them all.
My only wish for this monitor is that it came with a separate hand held parent unit so I didn't have to have my phone with me everywhere.

Taking safe sleep to a new level
on February 22, 2021
Posted by: Moelle
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Nanit Pro Smart Baby Monitor is my new favorite baby item! To begin with, the setup for this monitor was relatively easier. From a technically challenged person who usually has to get her husband to help set up things like this, I was able to do this myself. The app is easy to navigate after playing around for a little bit and the image from the camera is so clear. The Insights Data was interesting to see each morning. I assumed my baby was sleeping through the night but this showed me she was waking and self soothing back to sleep all on her own! The breathing band has also given us peace of mind as our girl is right on the verge of rolling to her belly. I feel more comfortable knowing this breathing technology will be an extra safeguard to keeping her safe while sleeping! This product was gifted to me to try as a part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

Nanit Pro w/ Floor stand review
on February 22, 2021
Posted by: Moose85
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros:
-I love being able to see my LO night summary report. The video is pretty cool to watch and the statistics along with LO's report is helpful too.
-The image quality is excellent! Both day and night -time vision
-The ability to be able to zoom in and out to any size is a really nice feature other camera monitors do not have.

-The image quality is excellent! Both day and night -time vision
-The ability to be able to zoom in and out to any size is a really nice feature other camera monitors do not have.
Cons:
-My most unfavorable part of the Nanit, is it doesn't come with a separate monitor screen. If you do NOT have a device to be able to download the Nanit app, this product is not useable. You MUST have a device to be able to download the app in order to check on your LO.
-I don't like how it drains my battery life on my device
-The floor stand is very flimsy. Sturdy metal piping for the top half but the bottom is made from cheap PVC pipe. As I was installing the camera/stand, the PVC part of the stand kept disconnecting.
-The breathing monitor band run extremely small. Order a size up! If you have a larger LO, you won't be able to utilize the breathing monitoring system features for long which is a bummer.
-The Breathing band sleep sacks are fashionable. However, they don't come in a thicker material for those LO's that are colder. They are perfect for the warmer LOs!
-Having a baby monitor based on WIFI, is an uneasy feature for me as it leaves hacking into my info/home wide open. People LOVE it or HATE it. I happen to not care for the WIFI feature.
-Have I mentioned how it doesn't come with a separate device to view the app????? They totally missed the ball on this one!!! The app is fun to have on your phone or other device to check in on your LO, BUT, it would be nice to have a main monitor to carry around or have for the everyday use.
-It's pretty pricey considering you have to use an app AND pay monthly/annually for subscription to utilize the features of the breathing band.

Overall, I really wish the Nanit Pro had a main device for the monitor system as supposed to relying solely on an app. This is my main issue for this product!
Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this baby monitor to review!

A must have for any parent!
on February 23, 2021
Posted by: Lgillette
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a mom that wants the best of everything for my children, I do a lot of research before making important purchases. I wanted a monitor that had a crystal clear picture during the day and at night, with great audio and range. This monitor delivered that and so much more! It is honestly AMAZING! Right out of the box it is super easy to put together and instructions are straightforward. It was also easy to pair with the app on my phone and only took a few minutes to set up. The HD picture is so clear and the camera provides a view of the entire crib without ever having to adjust the angle. The stand we got with the camera is sturdy but it also comes with an attachment for the wall. The temperature and humidity readings are an added comfort (also seem very accurate compared to the readings on our thermostat). I also really like the breathing band for piece of mind and the insights data to track our little one’s sleep. Plus as an added bonus, it tracks everything in a sort of digital baby book! Another thing we really like about the monitor is that it can save up to 10 wireless networks so we don’t have to redo it every time we might travel to family or friends overnight. Last but certainly not least, is that even if you lose WIFI you can keep streaming the feed from the monitor which was so important to us when the WiFi can be unreliable. We received this product from the Stellar Testing Panel in exchange for an honest review. I would recommend it to any new parents!

Versatile Baby Monitor
on February 23, 2021
Posted by: a_v2012
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so happy to be a part of testing this baby monitor through the stellar parent panel. I really liked the fact that you could either wall mount the camera or use it on the stand! That’s my most absolute favorite part so far. It was very easy to put together and only took me about 5 minutes. The stand is also adjustable too so it works great in small spaces! The cool thing about not mounting it to the wall is that it can be moved from place to place and mobility in a baby monitor of this kind is such a good feature.
The app allows you to view in both portrait or landscape which is awesome. It’s super easy to understand, and everything you want is right at your fingertips. You can snap pictures of your baby at the tap of a button and share with family members. There is an option to add more than one family member to view the camera footage. You can even add more than one camera and personalize them with your children’s names. You can even personalize access to who will be viewing such as (mom, dad, grandma, etc) There is a nightlight feature, along with new breathing and growth features. There is also a sound machine built in but honestly I did not care for this feature and there’s only one sound I would use and it’s not as easy to find. You have to tap on the video viewing area to make it full screen and then the music note pops up to select the sounds. I think it’s only two out of the 4 nature sounds that I like which is the white nose and waves I think. I honestly think this can be removed or updated to add your own music through Bluetooth or something else. One of the best in app features is that you can actually turn off the camera altogether. And there is also night-mode which allows the camera to stay on screen all night (no auto lock) and auto dims after 30 seconds.
The breathing band works great for older babies who have outgrown sleeping sacks and swaddles. It wraps around your baby underneath their arms and uses a unique pattern read by the Nanit camera to measure the breaths per minute. This is brilliant but I will add that you have to make sure that the band is the right size for your baby or you run the risk of setting off the non breathing alarm. This is something I experienced and I had to size up to a large from the small and then I didn’t have that issue anymore. So if your baby is at a higher weight percentile I would just go for the large band automatically. The alarm did scare me even though they make you do a test run but it’s something about the way that it was not wrapped properly due to the small fit. I think they could use a different sound or feature to let you know about the fit vs using one alarm that literally scared the bejesus out of me. It wasn’t even late at night it was around 8pm and I had just put my baby to sleep. She was not disturbed by the sound but I literally freaked out thinking my baby wasn’t breathing. So future notes for this camera maybe an update can fix or just make sure to get the largest band which can fit any baby at any size.
Now for the insights I love love loveeee this feature and wish it came as part of the purchase package... I think anyone would be willing to pay more to have this feature included vs paying monthly for this when we’ve already paid top dollar for this lovely camera. Maybe storage can be something extra to pay for but like overnight insights would be the best. Maybe not everyone wants to save the footage etc. so daily or overnight insights could also be something to look into or add through an update or include it all together and bump up the price. What I really enjoyed about the insights data were the suggestions so for example my baby is 4 months and it mentioned that around this time would be good to allow my baby to self soothe and put them down in the crib after feeding and rocking them for a shot period of time. Great suggestions and I can’t wait to see more as my baby grows.
Overall I really loved the use of the stand/wall mount option and the adjustability in terms of moving the camera up down or side to side. The stand is adjustable in terms of the connecting tubes that house the cord so you can either screw all of them together to run along a long wall or leave only one and fold up the rest. I like using the stand for now because I will eventually move the camera to the other room when the time is right. This allows portability from place to place also! Another one of my favorite features is the nightlight it is not too bright nor too dim. The turn off camera feature which is also a plus! Very happy about that. Wishing that the insights were part of the package purchase or at least some kind of daily recap for those who don’t want to purchase insights. Thank you to stellar product testing panel for allowing me to test this lovely system!
