what parents are saying
Does the job, but definitely not a favorite of mine. I hate it doesn't zoom or pan or tilt. Also has really dark edges at night, not much of a visible area. (Feb 23, 2018)

We got this because it was highly recommended. The receiver has never worked if not plugged in. It is nice to see the temperature in the room, but it seems to be a few degrees off. Jan 26, 2021

Decent picture. I like that it doesn't use wifi (no hacking risk) there's zoom and speaking functions. The battery life is horrible though, have to take off the video when it's off the charger. Dec 08, 2020

We used this exact monitor with my daughter who is now almost 4 and just bought the new version of it for our 4 week old son. Worked great for years and we loved it. No issues whatsoever! Mar 04, 2020

Lasted a long time. Had one issue with the cord. Had to buy a replacement after 2 years. But it made it through 3 kids and 6 year. Now we lose sound sometimes. Turning the camera off and on fixes it. Sep 13, 2019

Have used this monitor for over 2 years now with two cameras. It's worked perfectly! Love how I'm able to two way talk through it. Aug 16, 2019

I had this monitor and had to return it because it would always lose signal and would die so fast. Even with the little antenna thing up it would lose signal very disappointed. Apr 23, 2019

It worked fine until it just completely stopped. I should have listened to the reviews that said they break after about 18 months of use Aug 10, 2018

We love our monitor. The video quality is excellent, even at night. I love being able to move the camera around the crib, as my baby loves to move and groove in her sleep! Jul 10, 2018

Got this camera as a gift at my baby shower. I don't love it but it isn't horrible. It is hard to hear when my baby cries even when the volume is all the way up. Jun 23, 2018

PRO: Night vision camera Plays sound Shows room temp Lights for volume level CON: Can't remotely move camera around Night vision can be kind of jerky Oct 31, 2017

I love the modern look, ability to change night light colors, and moving the camera easily with the remote. However I am surprised with how grainy the picture is! Oct 24, 2017

This was the monitor I originally purchased and I was very disappointed! You can't remotely move the camera, meaning if baby moves around in the crib, you'll have to go into the room to adjust. Oct 04, 2017

Lasted 5 years and still going strong. Gives good readings on room temperature and I am able to use the speaker to communicate with my daughter. Mar 23, 2017

My husband and I were not too happy with this. we couldn't see it from our phone. It was always delayed a few seconds which panicked my husband. and the quality is kind of terrible. Mar 11, 2017

This monitor cost $250+ when we purchased it, and the power cord stopped working within a year of opening the box. Monitor is now useless. Attempts to reach customer service also went unanswered. Feb 09, 2017

Having a daughter witha special needs, this has been a life saver. We can easily keep an eye on her while she's in bed and not have to constantly go check on her. A definite must have!! Feb 01, 2017

This camera was great until the power cord suddenly stopped working and now it won't charge the camera. It is hard to find a replacement because this is the older model. Aug 19, 2016

Garbage! 2 died on us in under 7 mos, same issue both times - won't hold a charge. Model/serial #s are printed on camera, not parent unit - poor design - can't call customer service during naptime! Dec 23, 2015

Love it! We debated about which monitor to purchase. I am so glad we settled on this. I love the different features, especially the temperature gauge. I do wish that it had a clock on the screen. Dec 17, 2014

Couldn't live without this monitor. I suggest getting two cameras so u can keep one in the baby's room and one for travel or 2nd baby. Aug 22, 2014

I love this monitor and all its features (zoom, multiple cameras, microphone, music, etc). After 8 months of use it stopped taking a charge. Motorola is replacing but we had to have proof of purchase. Aug 20, 2014

No complaints here. Audio & video quality is sufficient, and while we didn't think we'd appreciate the temperature gauge, it has been handy in our chilly San Francisco house. Jul 31, 2014

This monitor is excellent. The picture quality is great in the day time, and the night vision is good as well. Love the feature that allows me to talk to my baby through the monitor. Jul 29, 2014

After the first couple of weeks, we began having constant connectivity issues. We also had to replace the charging cables for the parent unit and camera twice. Now the camera won’t even charge. Jul 24, 2019

Had no issues until 1.5 years later when the power cord is now loose and wont charge properly. Really like the temp reading and provides a clear picture. Has also randomly shut off at times. Jan 02, 2019

I wish I would have gotten something that maybe streamed to my phone. The monitor dies so quickly and you have to charge it constantly. Not my favorite. Nov 06, 2017
