Owlet Baby Monitor
what parents are saying
It does work. However, the base station (the thing that alerts you) has to be within 10 ft of the sock. Which means in babys room. So when sock falls off base plays music and wakes baby. Annoying! (Jan 18, 2016)

This monitor is the BEST. I love watching the app. I’m a first time mom and have such bad anxiety. This helps me sleep and not have such anxiety around my newborn. The alerts wake me up, I LOVE IT. Aug 02, 2024

I used to love the original version, the one that tracked heartrate, sleep cycles, etc. The newer version doesn't have as many features, which is disappointing. Apr 01, 2024

Along with the sleep sock this has been one of the best purchases since having our daughter. Clear picture and sound, no issues with WiFi past initial setup. Jan 29, 2024

I swear by this thing for peace of mind. The only times we EVER got false alarms were user errors. Otherwise, this thing was amazing. I had the 2 for my firstborn and the smartsock 3 for this baby. Dec 05, 2023
This just gives me peace of mind while our boy is sleeping, plus the app lets me see how he slept through the night and how often he woke up. It’s easy to install and use. My baby doesn’t seem to mind Nov 16, 2023

such a great piece of mind to have. I have the WIFI camera duo. It has really puts my fears to rest. one kink I wish they could fix would be the "low battery warning" with 2-3 hrs left. Oct 09, 2023
I like this monitor! It is super convenient to use if you have the sock because they show on the same app. Oct 06, 2023

I was so excited about it, but honestly didn’t use it as much as I thought I would. Good for first time parents that may be nervous or for babies that have complications and need to be monitored. Sep 24, 2023

Wouldn’t have slept without it! My son had heart surgery as a newborn and bringing him home as our first baby was scary! The peace of mind is worth every penny! Will be using again for baby #2! Sep 01, 2023

We used the baby monitor for a while and it had good visual and sound. We eventually got tired of relying on wifi to see our baby. We finally downgraded and got a regular monitor. Jun 29, 2023

Registered for this thinking it would give me peace of mind. Ended up causing me more anxiety because it falsely alarmed more than once that my son had no heart rate. Startled this sleepy mama, yikes! Jun 27, 2023

The Owlet has been a game-changer for me. While opinions may vary, it provides me with 100% peace of mind and allows me to sleep without constant worry about baby's breathing. A must-have. May 30, 2023

I do believe it gave me peace of mind for bedtimes (especially early on). Mine really bit the dust 6 mo into my second child’s use, though, and it’s no longer supported. May 26, 2023

So much peace of mind! Jul 18, 2022

My preemies spent time in the NICU. This alerted us to any HR or O2 dips at home. The 3rd generation smart sock worked out kinks & greatly reduced false alarms. Expensive but worth it! Nov 24, 2021

I bought it for peace of mind but my son moved a lot when he slept. This would set the alarm off and constantly wake my baby up. Mar 04, 2020

We got this from our baby registry and we really were excited using it when baby got home from hospital. After two months, we were done using it. Good for first time parents. Jan 06, 2020

Such a lifesaver for me to know my baby’s oxygen level and heart rate! I also love reviewing his sleep patterns the night before. Oct 31, 2019

I can sleep. With a 5 week old. I tell everyone to get this! I sleep knowing my daughter is breathing, and is okay. Her safety and well being is protected by this product. Worth every penny. Aug 22, 2019

This seemed like a fantastic option for our newborn, but even with tech support, we couldn’t stop the false alarms. I lost more sleep worrying about whether or not the alarm would wake the baby. Jul 24, 2019

My husband had sleep apnea as a baby, and we were nervous with our little one. This gives us so much peace of mind and even made the transition from our room to his own easier on me. May 07, 2019

Baby had breathing issues at birth. I was crazed and sleep deprived for 2 months. Finally got the owlet and it is the BEST thing I have ever bought! I started sleeping in peace! Can watch rates in app Apr 08, 2019

Definitely worth the money for piece of mind. While you may get some false alarms if you don't get the fit right, it definitely works. Very reassuring. Sock fitting chart is not the best though Mar 22, 2019

This has more than paid for itself! LO started choking one night and the Owlet woke us for it! We will definitely continue to use it. Sep 10, 2018

We had some false alarms but once we figured it out this gave us SO much peace of mind. I love checking in on him using the app, especially when he's home with a sitter. Bedtime must have! May 15, 2018

I LOVE the owlet! We had some issues the very first time we used it as the blue sensor when it gets away from the base station goes off pretty easy. Gives me a piece of mind to sleep better Jan 28, 2018

Was a little expensive, but worth every penny! I love having the peace of mind. I don’t get any false alarms, only alerts if the sock needs to be adjusted Jan 16, 2018

Put my anxiety at ease when we brought baby home from the hospital. I only used it for a few months, but it helped me sleep! Nov 27, 2017

This monitor really does give you a piece of mind. However the sock that comes with the first generation monitor is horrible and my baby easily kicks it off. However the second generation sock stays. Nov 13, 2017

Worth every single penny! So much peace of mind every time they're sleeping. Especially when they are sick or slept longer than usual. Easy to put on, wash, use, etc. App is easy to use too. Nov 06, 2017

This is a great product to help with peace of mind. It worked great when baby was in the room with us, but when we moved her to her room which was right next to us it wouldn’t connect right. Nov 03, 2017

Such a love-hate relationship with this. Love the idea of it, but it had way too many false alarms. Jan 10, 2017

This is a must have! This monitor uses pulse oximetry technology to track baby's heart rate and oxygen levels and will set off an alarm if either vary from a normal range. i had 0 false alarms too! Dec 05, 2016

we only just got it. So far the only downside to it is the signal range, we can't have the base in our room because it wont connect to the monitor sock.Had to put it outside bubs room instead :( Apr 23, 2016
