We purchased this item because my son was born 2 months early and spent a lot of time in the NICU hooked up to machines. One of the issues he had was that he had really bad reflux and would stop breathing. We were afraid that this issue would continue at home and feared would happen when we were asleep or unaware. The sock has gone off twice and helped us react quickly. Once while nursing and once in the middle of the night when he was in deep sleep. If we had not been alerted we would have never known! It is also nice to help track the baby’s sleep schedule and just have peace of mind overall. My son is about to be 1 and we still use it every night. We loved it so much we gifted it to a family member who is expecting in March.
great quality. product is useful. you can monitor your baby from everywhere and it's really gives you peace of mind.
app is different for Europe and US and it's confusing. Also, it is not available in every country and it's an important downside (that's why 4 starts).
The owlet is a great device that gives me peace of mind while my baby is sleeping. I rest assured knowing that if their oxygen gets too low I will be notified. I can also track his sleeping patterns which is helpful to know how much quality rest my baby is getting. We don’t go a night without the owlet.
We love having the Owlet sock for great peace of mind! However, we wish there was a way to disable the alarm without having to disconnect the base. We know the sock range won't reach the other side of the house when we do the 3am feedings, so we're constantly disconnecting and reconnecting the base every night. Then we worry if we happen to forget to plug the base back in...
I like that it tells oxygen levels and heart rate. It does help with my peace of mind but I get a lot of alarms that sock is not in the correct placement. It will be random, the baby hasn't moved so im not sure how all the sudden it's wrong and then when you turn off the alarm its fine and doesnt do it again. I wonder how many false readings I'm getting. For the price of this I would expect more but I'd rather have false alarms than not having an alarm go off when something is wrong.
