This monitor including the breathing band gives me so much piece of mind as a first time mom. I am so happy to have invested in this option when there are several cheaper options but would not have provided me the same reassurance
Nana Pro was purchased to monitor my 90 year-old mother with dementia. It gives me peace of mind being notified when she gets up during the night. The camera is very clear, both in daylight and night vision. Occasionally, the alerts are slightly delayed but that is due to Wi-Fi connection
I love the ability to connect to the camera from my phone. It seems accurate tracking her movement and cries. When she’s awake vs asleep.
However, I got the 8 inch display and I’m highly disappointed. To be honest, the video quality isn’t the best. My hello baby monitor and camera is better quality.
Now let’s talk about the 8in display battery life…. It lasts maybe a couple of hours before it needs a charge. This needs to be looked into and fixed. My hello baby monitor can last me a solid 24 hours or more with one charge. For the price of this equipment, I’d expect better quality.
I do want to mention that I’ve had this set up for less than 24 hours and already regretting my purchase.
Nanit seems great so far but the volume is not very loud to alert if there is an issue. The camera also will notify if there was a tree movement outside and other movements not inside the room.
We have two monitors, one for our young toddler and one for our newborn. It's great to monitor the newborn of course, but being able to keep an eye on our toddler when he plays in his room alone, call him down through the mic and play with him via mic and sounds are things I didn't even think about when I was an anxious first time dad just wanting to make sure he was breathing through the night. They are great monitors and continue to be useful and even fun as the kids grow.
We've had our Nanit for over 2 years and it gives us peace of mind in and out of the house when we have others watching our LO. The recaps and metric tracking are a nice bonus, but it's the fact you know you can set your monitor overnight on your phone and reliably / see hear what you need to that helps most.
