Great product - J. M. Snyder, Oct 05, 2008

As a VERY panicky new mom I wasn't really into the idea of my baby sleeping away from me, in a different room, but I also needed to be able to eat dinner (or do anything) with my husband while the baby sleeps. This camera adds the security of being able to see my baby in his co-sleeper for the few hours before we go up to bed, or while he naps. I have found it to have great range (we can be in the backyard, though the screen is hard to see outside and in sunlight), and literally no interference from our cell or cordless phones. The night vision is clear but the 'pan and zoom' don't actually pan the camera, but rather the digital range of what the image shows. I still love the feature though, zooming in is key for me. I have come to accept the few seconds it takes to view the image after you hear something and want to look. You can view for 30 seconds and then need to hit 'view' again to see. This feature is not a problem, though I wish I could view for longer.

My only complaint is that while the hand-held monitor has re-chargable batteries and can be disconnected often, the camera unit does not. We go through alot of batteries when it is unplugged, but honestly, this is not a real problem compared to how useful the product is.

Finally, my overall favorite feature is that it is a closed circuit digital camera, and no one can accidentally 'tune' into our channel like other monitors. That was most important, and we are very pleased. We actually bought a second so we can have two cameras in different rooms so we don't have to move them all the time when our baby falls asleep in different places.

Awesome, just awesome! Easy to use. - MAC33351, Oct 02, 2008

Ordered this yesterday at about 8pm and it was delivered today at 4pm. All you do is add in the rechargeable batteries, plug the unit in and the two 'see' each-other instantly. This this is idiot proof.

I have signal issues in my house as the baby's room is in the interior, rear of the house and a concrete wall divides her part of the house and the master bedroom. Have tried other monitors - had the Sony multi-channel thing and it had horrible coverage, beeped all the time. This monitor works flawlessly and the video is just too cool to have.

The picture is great and the monitor is small enough that I can have it on my belt while I do yard work and still have good signal. This is one 'must have' for new parents although this is my second child. The Sony was $140 years ago so this one at $203 is a deal.

Awesome monitor! - jqm, Sep 24, 2008

This monitor rocks! We live in a 4 story townhouse and this is the first monitor to work with no static! There are four noise settings and if you chose Level 1-3, there is absolutely NO static at all. Incredible! We have tried four other monitors and this is by far the best monitor out there!

Two cons: 1) The green light on the baby unit blinks constantly. I called the company and there is nothing I can do. It has to blink for the night vision camera to work. That's fine...I am sure my daughter will get used to it. In fact, it does not bother her at all right now, since the camera is on a table next to her. 2) It does affect the connection to our wireless router about 20% of the time. No problem though...I turn off the monitor, connect to the internet, then turn the monitor back on.

Even with the two cons, this is the BEST monitor. We love not having to listen to static or to rearrange the monitor to just the right position to avoid interference!

Love it - Laura E. Belluomini, Sep 17, 2008

Love this product. By far superior to an audio monitor. Its great not having to get out of bed to check on the little one and the quality of it is great. The picture is good and audio/video options are awesome. Only thing is that the light on the camera unit flashes and makes my little girl suspiscious! Also, it does interfere with our internet, but if you put the unit on the other side of the room it works fine.

Way beyond expectations! - Casey, Sep 16, 2008

I was hesitant to buy this monitor because of the price and seeing the poor quality / performance of friends video baby monitors. We've been pleasantly surprised at how well this system works. The camera looks great during the day in color and at night in the dark the picture is crisp and clear. The sound quality is good and is easy to see what is going on and if you need to go and check on the baby. There is zero static / interference...zero it just works! In fact we are able to go over to the neighbors house 3 doors down and take the monitor and be aware of any sound or movement. Battery life is good and it just takes rechargeable AA so is cheap and easy to add more / replace batteries.
