what parents are saying

Susan T.

weeThink

This wi-fi enabled camera isn't technically a baby monitor, but we still think it's a universal must-have for parents. While on-the-go, you can peek in on your little one at home from your mobile device or desktop. Its 107 degree view means you can see the whole room at once (or zoom in!), and it connects to your wi-fi in about two minutes.

The Catch: A few parents thought there might be a slight delay in the video.

  • This is absolutely my #1 recommendation for parents! We use it as a baby monitor, but it’s also fun for capturing those moments when you wish you had a camera recording. Awesome customer service, too. Nov 07, 2020

    Easy to use and to set up a couple around in the house. Especially useful when my three year old can independently play Jan 30, 2020

  • I have had this product for two babies. I highly recommend purchasing! Most baby monitors are big ugly boxes. I love how small and light weight this is. It also works really well night and day! Jul 12, 2019

  • Easy to setup and use. We’ve had ours for about 4 years now and it’s still working like a champ. Dec 13, 2018

    I love my nest cams/drop cams, great image resolution and most importantly you can check from anywhere bc it’s attached to your phone. Best thing is it’s portable and so easy to set up Oct 15, 2018

  • We use these in multiple rooms, including the baby's room as a way to check in on her as she sleeps or when dad is out of town for work. Love the night vision and the alerts. Apr 17, 2017

  • Great picture and sound quality. The Nest app is easy to use. Jun 25, 2016

  • long distance connection is awesome. amazing quality and connection via app. Dec 03, 2015

  • Only downside is that you cannot leave continuous audio running in the background. Solved by using a deactivated phone that is left on the dropcam/nest app all the time when in the house. GREAT zoom. Aug 11, 2015

  • Crystal clear in pitch black darkness. Great reception over mobile devices. Jul 30, 2015

  • Haven't used yet Apr 18, 2015

  • It connects to your ipone Jan 27, 2015

  • We have this instead of a monitor. We love that you can access it from your phone or computer, great night time vision, and much more. It'll be useful even when we no longer need it in the nursery. Dec 21, 2014

    Best product for monitoring - the sound is great and the app is a must. Sep 30, 2014

  • Easy to set up and easy to move around the nursery Sep 25, 2014

  • I got this but never needed it, as we didn't need it as a baby monitor and our baby is always with people we trust. But it works really well, and I liked the access from the web and mobile. Sep 14, 2014

    The video quality on this camera is amazing. We can zoom in and out, it has night vision, sound, motion detection, and we can use the mic on our iPhones, iPad, or laptop to communicate with our baby! Jul 28, 2014

  • Super easy to set up and the resolution is amazing, even the night vision! We also love the recording/playback feature and have even run out of space on the cloud saving all the clips! Jun 16, 2014

  • LOVE this. Apr 18, 2014

  • Super easy set up, clear picture and like that there's not one more thing in the house since it's viewed on our phones or iPad. Mar 09, 2014

  • Absolutely LOVE being able to watch my baby from anywhere. I travel for work and it is so nice to be able to check in on her at night or throughout the day when I am away. Feb 14, 2014

  • It's ok. It doesn't have a clear picture and the night vision is iffy, plus the camera shot isn't as clear as you'd like, but it is good for travel. We don't use it as our stationary camera. Feb 13, 2014

  • Make the investment in this camera and quit researching... Great company, great product, and the most trustworthy option you will find for monitoring your Baby. Feb 09, 2014

  • it's so great to be able to check in on baby even when i'm not home Feb 06, 2014

  • Easy to set up and it it works well on our phones, and even better on our computer. Jan 29, 2014

  • Top baby cam on the market. Also very useful for monitoring other things! I set it up in my house, pointing out at the backyard. I can get a sense of whats going on in nature anytime I'm on my iPhone. Jan 15, 2014

  • Q: If my husband is at work and is looking in on the baby on his phone can I also have it pulled on mine to be watching the baby? Or is it a one can be pulled up at a time?
