Reception can be a but temperamental, the click when the parent unit cones on is louder than baby and it clicks on when reception comes in and out so we ended up having to turn that function off when we go to bed. The light on the parent unit (to show it's on / charging) is quite bright. But other than those niggles it's a great monitor. Highlight function has been well used and talkback function is great for when they are a bit older (tended to freak baby out). It's lasted well too - We are now well into the 3rd year of continuous use.

Great monitor, taken lots of hits including being dropped into the loo! Still going, reliable and battery lasts 3-4 hours even after 15 months of constant use.

I had an analogue monitor as it was all I could afford when my 1st was born. It was rubbish - buzzed all the time it was on & only had a short reception range. It also used a lot of batteries, so had to use the parent unit plugged in most of the time. It cost me

Excellent monitor which can be set to high or normal sensitivity to sound which means that as she has gotten older we can set it at normal and not have it going off every time she turns over. The monitors are lightweight and durable as she has dropped them a few times with no damage. Definitely a product I would recommend.

We had a basic sound monitor and for the money it did the job,especially for a slightly older baby or toddler age. Next time I would possibly think about one with a camera unit in though so you can see what the noise is aswell as hearing it.

Very sensitive pick up. Volume control and night light in the base that sits in babies room, which was comforting for my son.

Monitor with breathing mat- very good, sound occasionally cuts out which is the only reason it's not "excellent". Monitors breathing to give peace of mind. Can be used with or without breathing monitoring mat. Can turn off sound and have light indicator for sound or both. Alarms after 20secs if movement not detected. Can talk to baby, play Music and put nightlight on using parent remote! Great quality for money.
