The bad: Terrible range, lots of static in picture and audio, green LEDs way too bright (receiver lights up our bedroom even when video screen is off). I'll give it a solid "C". Night vision works well for us but we have the cameras really close to the cribs (twins).
Oh, and the monitor stand is very unstable - I usually lay it on its side. wait for it. And the biggie - it works on the same frequency as pretty much all consumer Wifi routers which means we have to unplug both cameras in order to use our wireless internet, *every* morning.
Sound alarm is nice since the actual audio has static (we turn the ambient audio off and just listen for the alarm).Overall. Smooth stuff. They're about 2 iterations away from a great product.The good: The three available operating modes are nice.
lame. Better than nothing, but I'd recommend trying something else.Now where's my receipt.
I bought this item because it seemed to be more professional than the true baby monitors, which seem to command a premium because they are blue and cute. Nevertheless, the product has disappointed because it is so sensitive to interference, including when we turn on the microwave in another room about 20-25 feet away from both the monitor and camera. The colors are also very poor and I have seen much better quality (and with less interference) on other baby monitors.Otherwise, it's an ok product and we've particularly enjoyed the setting whereby it comes on when the camera detects a loud noise (such as crying).
I don't recommend this camera because it's not functional at night, the beam is way to focused so you can only see a very small portion of the crib. I would not buy it. The only positives is the sound and the alarm if your baby starts to cry.
Pretty happy with this product. The wireless router also creates noticeable distortion - surfing the web and sending emails create additional static whenever data is sent or received. Even in low light I can get a good enough picture to see what I need.
Want this to double both as a baby monitor as well as security cameras for the house. Nevertheless, the accurate color reproduction is not what I bought the camera for. Chose this based on reviews and the ability to expand it to multiple cameras.
The colors are not accurate, as the brown wooden crib appears light blue. Initial use was as a baby monitor. The picture is clearer than expected, and the night vision was also better than expected.
There is noticeable static and line distortion the farther away you get, and this is probably not great to use as something you leave on all night by your bedside unless you in a very nearby room. Overall though I am happy with it.
so constantly putting batteries in it and they are not lasting at all. The picture quality is not great at all. I still can't get the product to work through the electrical outlet. Overall I wish I would have went with another model. I am not happy with this product at all.
