Beautiful and overall great with just a few cons
on May 22, 2023
Posted by: KHail
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this baby monitor as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Overall, it’s a great product! It was super easy to put together as the inside packaging made it obvious how to do so. Easy to install the app, which is very straightforward to use. Both my husband and I love that the app says when baby fell asleep and woke up, and find that feature is very accurate. The design of the monitor and floor stand is beautiful! It blends well with the nursery and is not an eye sore. I love that the power cord has some tubing so it is not exposed to baby. The floor stand is my favorite thing about this monitor… no need to mount anything on the wall or awkwardly try to figure out how to get a good shot of the crib!
A couple of cons. I feel that for this price point it really should come with a parent unit. At first I didn’t think this was a big deal, as we have our phones on us all the time anyway, but I’m finding my phone battery draining quickly with using this. It’s also a problem when grandma comes over to babysit because she doesn’t like downloading extra apps on her phone. The other con is that if we have another child in the future we will need to buy a subscription to access a lot of the features. Again, for the initial price this should be an all inclusive product.
I wish I could speak to the breath tracking feature, but our 9 month old is too big for the band that came with the unit. I don’t feel like it’s a necessary feature, unless we had a baby who had been in the nicu or had a health concern.

It is a lot of information
on May 22, 2023

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was lucky enough to get the Nanit Pro as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Simply put, if you want data and information as a part of figuring out your LO, this is the setup to get. Nanit has paired the camera and app in a user friendly and seamless way that is unmatched. I've tried other cameras, this one is great. The physical setup of the camera and floor stand took less than 5 minutes. Everything clicks together and Nanit even provides covers for the USB cord that runs along the floor to keep everything tidy and put away. For those concerned about having a connected camera for their LO, Nanit allows for two of the best things for keeping your camera account secure, 16+ character passwords and two factor authentication turned on be default. The camera itself is very clear in the dark, and allows for minimal loss of quality when zooming in. There are a ton of accessories for the Nanit Pro including sleep sacks with the breathing band built in. Since our LO is 9 months old, that's the route we went. Here's where start to get into my 4 stars instead of 5. There is a ton of stuff the Nanit can do. From breathing, sleep tracking (and giving really good tips to help), full video history, to even measuring growth. It is a lot. I loved the data, my wife was meh about it, but several of our friends thought it was a bit overwhelming. If you need help in giving your LO nighttime structure then the Insights will definitely do that. In the end, I loved user interface of the app and used the movement map the most.

The perfect baby monitor I never knew I needed
on May 22, 2023
Posted by: THEOSMOM
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Nanit Pro Baby Monitor + floor stand is practically perfection! We loved how easy was it to assemble and adjust to fit our nursery. No wall mounting required! The completely hidden cord is truly genius. We had used a non WiFi monitor in the past, but the quality on this Nanit camera is unmatched. It’s crystal clear and the ‘birds eye view’ is so much easier to closely keep an eye on our baby than the dresser across the room set up we had before. The breathing band feature is really neat, though we don’t use it often, frankly, because we still nurse to sleep and transfer to crib, so it’s too cumbersome to try to put on his breathing band once he’s asleep. I’ve been so impressed with the insights data and the activity history. It’s really helpful to have a recap of his days and nights. I absolutely recommend this smart baby monitor to all my expecting friends, though I do think 1 major improvement would be a noise reduction feature to block out static sound machine noises. Thankful for the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this baby monitor. It’s the perfect baby product I never knew I needed!

Smart Monitor
on May 22, 2023
Posted by: Nell
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given this baby monitor to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. This is my second Nanit floor stand camera. It was very quick to assemble and adjust into place. The updated floor stand design makes a big difference. I was able to get my camera flush against the wall, with no shaking. The breathing band is a nice additional feature. The breathing monitoring feature allowed me lots of peace of mind. The insights data is one of my most used features on my Nanit. It’s very helpful to see the wake windows and notice patterns. I refer to it on a daily basis. The notifications with alerts of sound or motion are great if you’re doing chores and can’t monitor continuously. My favorite feature is definitely the spilt screen! I thought I wanted a camera with a handheld monitor but after having a wifi monitor, I don’t think I’d be able to make the switch. When my husband and I had a night out with a babysitter, it was fun to check in to see the kids. Great, great camera! Highly recommended from a mom of two.

Great monitor for peace of mind
on May 23, 2023
Posted by: envogue
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wish I had this monitor for all three of my kids! The Nanit Monitor combines the best of a wifi/app monitor with a traditional monitor. Setting up the physical monitor and the app was super easy. The app can connect to multiple accounts so any caretakers can have access. I love the floor stand because I could get the monitor in the exact right position without having to deal with mounting. The stand slides easily under the crib so it is unobtrusive in the room. I think my favorite feature is that the monitor audio can be played while your phone is in another app or on the lock screen. Only caveat is that it does use quite a bit of battery but I love being able to keep the audio on without having the app open. The insights are also incredibly helpful. We were always guessing how long a nap was or when we'd last checked on the baby, the app keeps track of all of it. The video quality is also impressive. This is a great monitor, thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for sending me one to try out!

Holy Grain of Baby Monitors
on May 23, 2023
Posted by: Anonymous
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had the first generation Nanit monitor for my first baby and didn’t think we would be able to have more kids so we sadly sold it. But now baby #2 is arriving any day and we are so excited to have the Nanit Pro for this baby! I loved all the features with my first and 5 years later they are even better!
The installation was incredibly easy, pop the poles together in stand (which is now a sturdy stand that you can place anywhere, not just against a wall). The cord is also hidden so baby can’t pull on any of the cord when in the crib or crawling around it.
The camera connected easily through the app and the picture quality is wonderful! You can leave the app running on your phone in the background and the app can send you notifications if baby is moving, making noise, and with the breathing band (which I’m so excited to have) it can alert you to if your baby appears to not be breathing - our biggest fear for the first few months!
I love the app! You can turn on the subtle nightlight, play the sound machine, talk to baby, see so many stats (with an Insights subscription) and set up multiple users if you have a babysitter or grandparent watching the baby.
Still using the first generation camera with my older child and after so much use and showing others moms I can honestly say this is my top holy grail baby product we have used!

Added photos but used babydoll since I’m still a couple days away from baby’s arrival!

High Quality
on May 23, 2023
Posted by: AprilW
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this baby monitor. Setup for this monitor was very easy as it took maybe five minutes to put together the floor stand and camera. I cannot emphasize enough how high quality the camera is. While testing out this product, my baby had some minor congestion and I could hear him breathing the audio quality is so good. The image quality is very clear and you even have the ability to zoom in on your baby. I was a little hesitant about an app, but it works so well and I’m impressed with all the additional info it provides. It makes things easy for me with all that it keeps track of, like how long my baby has been napping for. It’s also very convenient to be able to keep the app open at night with the “night mode” (screen is dimmed), but during the day if I want to close the app, I will receive a notification as soon as movement or noise is detected. One of my favorite features of the app is the dashboard where I can see a night summary. This basically tells me how well my baby slept and even gives a short recap video of his night. All of the sleep info recorded is extremely helpful when trying to improve your baby’s sleep or get them on a schedule. My husband loves that he can have the app on his phone too so he can check in on the baby while he’s at work. Being able to check on your baby while someone else is caring for them is also a great safety feature. We did test out the breathing band but the size we were sent was actually too small for my baby (he’s a chunky guy). However, the breathing band would be so great to use when your baby is sick or if you wanted additional monitoring on them for any reason. I could say so much more, but I would absolutely recommend this product if you are looking for a product that’s high quality, gives sleep insight, and allows you to monitor them from anywhere.

Best Monitor Out There
on May 23, 2023
Posted by: Tram
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Nanit camera is the clearest picture quality baby monitor we've used. The sleeping and breathing insights are very detailed and a big added bonus. We have the old and now new stand. The new stand does seem more stable and secure than the old one. It took me about 10 minutes to build this new stand. I like that the base of the new stand doesn't take up as much of a footprint as the old one does. Our kids share a room, so we have the baby's crib in a black out tent in the room. It easily slipped under the crib and tent.
Our baby no longer sleeps in our room so having the breathing band on him is reassuring that he is safe. All you do is put it on over his pj's, turn it on on the app and it automatically finds him and connects it. We've only had a false alarm once, but it was when he was in the swaddle breathing wear. Our babe is a big boy for 3 months, he weighs about 15lbs and the 0-3 month breathing band is already getting very small on him. It's already barely going around him, so we'll have to move up a size. I wish that it ran bigger. Most babies are swaddled until they are 3 months, so you wouldn't really be able to use the breathing band until then. I like that I can use the Insights data and go back and see how his night was. It tracks when he woke up and put himself to sleep again.
We have another Nanit for my daughter, and I love the new feature where you can do split screen and view both of them at the same time. You no longer have to juggle back and forth between two camera screens. The app is very user friendly. I think the Nanit camera is the best baby monitor breathing and sleep tracking system out there.
Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this baby monitor.
