  • Great monitor good resolution comes with hardware to hang it on a wall which is great can get a good view of whole room love that I can see both rooms at the same time on the monitor good volume. Sep 10, 2020

  • we love this monitor easy to set up and has lasted! Aug 07, 2020

  • Didn't even last one year and couldn't get the monitor to charge anymore. the port for charging on the monitor broke trying to keep it charging. Jun 17, 2020

  • I was disappointed this monitor didn't last very long. After less than 2 years we are having multiple issues. Parent unit no longer stays charged and freezes regularly. The sound sometimes stops too. Mar 09, 2020

  • Doesnt have great picture quality. Not great range. And worst of all the plug in got loose so the monitor stopped taking a charge. Spend a little more for better quality! Jan 23, 2020

    We had this monitor handed down to us from some friends, but absolutely love it! I will never go back to a traditional monitor! Jul 26, 2019

  • The monitor seemed pretty good at first but after a couple of months of use, the charging port began to have issues and the cord has to be positioned a certain way to the monitor will not charge. Jul 06, 2019

  • We got this and after a while of using it, the charging port stopped working all together. Cameras worked fine but the parent unit wouldn’t charge anymore. Apr 19, 2019

  • The battery stop charging and working after only 3 MONTHS! Apr 03, 2019

  • I really love this video camera. It has many functions, including alarms that can be set for temperature, etc. It was affordable. The only con is the battery sometimes will fail. Mar 04, 2019

  • Loved this monitor but it broke in less than a year. VTech is great though and sent us a completely new system. Feb 28, 2019

  • Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this VTech VM352 Visio monitor. I enjoyed it very much. I especially liked the wide angle lens. It’s so clear day and nite. You see so much Sep 03, 2018

  • I've been through 2 of these already(not including the 1 my MIL had)Stopped charging the. Cord plugs into the parent unit but wont charge it or hold a charge if it all of a sudden wants to work. Jul 02, 2018

  • This monitor is decent. We got a set with 2 cameras. The picture quality is good. The wall mounts aren't ideal and kind of hard to use. It works well enough. Jun 06, 2018

  • I purchased this last month with the two cameras. So far it’s okay. The picture quality isn’t as nice as our previous one. And the second camera has problems pairing. We’ll see how it goes. May 23, 2018

  • These have been great for us! Apr 04, 2018

    This is my favorite monitor ever. I can turn the screen off when I'm trying to sleep, but it has the option to turn back on with sound from the baby's room. Picture is clear and battery life is nice. Mar 21, 2018

  • We use this to monitor both of our children's bedrooms overnight - clear picture, lots of options on how to watch them, holds a charge well and of the three monitors we've had, its our CLEAR favorite! Feb 04, 2018

  • Camera is stationary and doesn't pick up sound well. Jan 07, 2018

    • Katie M.

    • United States of America

    The monitor only lasts a few hours before it has to be plugged back in to charge and after only a week of using it, I've had to pop the battery in and out as the monitor wouldn't turn on at all. Dec 20, 2017

    • North Tonawanda , New York

    Love this and bought another one for my second child. Mar 24, 2020

  • This probably isn’t the best monitor on the market, but for what we needed it worked. We don’t use it very often. I can easily see and hear my baby. The range isn’t the greatest though. May 03, 2019

  • The camera doesn’t pan so if your child moves you have to physically move the camera. When I purchased the system the box didn’t indicate if the camera moved or not. Now I find it misleading Oct 14, 2018

  • We have gone through 2 of these in the last year. The first time, the camera just stopped working. The second time, the charger wouldn't plug into the parent unit. Costumer service was good. May 09, 2018

  • This monitor is awesome & easy to use. It has so many great features: night vision, wide angle lens, zoom feature, talk button, music. I love that you can add additional cameras as your family grows. Feb 04, 2018

  • The temperature gauge is pretty cool. Just don't like the cord hanging down the wall for the camera part. Update: After a year it no longer works. So disappointed! Jan 24, 2018

    • Nicole B.

    • Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

    Simple, easy works well. Wish there was a little more control on the camera viewing. Jan 02, 2018

  • We had a summer infant before switching to vtech, and it was such a good switch. Ive had no problems so far! Just peace of mind. Sep 24, 2017

  • This is easy to use and install. Clear image as well. Great price too! Apr 24, 2017

  • Good range, sound, and picture. Battery life is a problem. Would be nice if it displayed time on the monitor as well. Jan 31, 2017

  • (what's this?)

    The wide screen and clear sound are huge improvements over my existing video monitor. Dec 22, 2016

  • (what's this?)

    Lots of great features, including temperature sensor, low-battery alert, and an AWESOME wide-angle lens to see everything! Image quality didn't blow me away, but it did the job. Dec 16, 2016

  • (what's this?)

    Pro: how easy it was to setup compared to the other 2 we've had and good picture quality. Cons: The wide angle doesn't let me see as much as I was hoping and the music has been cutting out. Dec 10, 2016

  • (what's this?)

    Good monitor but not great. Like the daytime vision on the camera but night vision is lacking. Great wide angle lens and zoom but battery life on the parent unit is pretty bad. Dec 08, 2016

  • (what's this?)

    Setup is super easy, it doesn't have to connect to your wifi, and the camera is wonderful. I also really like the screen dimness features and long range allowed between camera and receiver. Dec 08, 2016

  • (what's this?)

    Closed circuit is a major pro. Wide lens allows you to see multiple children at once. Has a wide range. You can speak to your child through the monitor or soothe with lullabies. Great product! Dec 07, 2016

  • (what's this?)

    Cons: The parent unit is heavier and bulkier than expected. Can't move the camera around from the parent unit. Pros: Decent price. Good signal strength. Video quality is comparable to others. Dec 06, 2016

  • (what's this?)

    Full-feature monitor that matches well to monitors that cost closer to $200. Only gripes are that remote adjustment of the camera is limited and no visual display of sound in the nursery. Dec 05, 2016

  • (what's this?)

    I have to very active kiddos, 1 & 3, so we set this up in the playroom and I love that it comes with the wide angle lense so I could see the whole room! Dec 03, 2016

  • (what's this?)

    Best monitor we've tried so far. Love the wide-angle lens, great image quality, easy to use. Wish you could adjust camera from parent unit but not a deal breaker. Dec 02, 2016

  • (what's this?)

    Great monitor at a great price. PROS: zoom-in feature, wide angle lens, easy to use. CONS: loud annoying beep for menu selections, grainy image, inability to move camera from the monitor base. Dec 02, 2016

  • (what's this?)

    A very good video monitor, but the inability to mute the selection sounds and the lack of silence when there is no crying are features I can't get behind. I prefer my Motorola video monitor. Dec 02, 2016

  • (what's this?)

    Great picture, great features, great quality! Dec 02, 2016

  • (what's this?)

    Loved the temp sensor, large screen & wide camera lens. Easy to customize settings. Wish it had the ability to pan the room. Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for sending me this monitor! Dec 02, 2016

  • (what's this?)

    I got a chance to try this as part of the weeSpring Parent Panel. Pros: inexpensive Cons: video quality isn't great, no pan/tilt option from parent unit, not super user friendly. Overall it's just ok. Dec 02, 2016

  • (what's this?)

    I got to try this as part of the weespring parent panel. The monitor is large and the color is nice! I like all the features on this monitor. I wish it had the ability to pan the room Dec 01, 2016

  • (what's this?)

    This monitor is okay...like that it is easy to set up and picture was clear. Didn't like that you manually have to adjust the camera and that the volume seemed very low. Nov 30, 2016

  • (what's this?)

    Great product. Very wide angle lens. Good battery life and long distant range. Very clear image on screen. Great value for money and easy to use. Thank you weespring parent panel! Nov 30, 2016

  • (what's this?)

    This monitor is awesome!! I am bummed we have spent my daughter's first year without it. This monitor is easy to use, great picture and really gives you a great sense of security. 100% recommend !! Nov 29, 2016
