 Ok for the price.. but forget roaming cordless!!! July 20, 2010
S. Weissman
The range on this isn't near what it claims! I can't roam around my very small 2 story home without the handset being plugged in, which defeats the purpose of a cordless set! I'm trading up to the Avent Digital, supposed to be #1 monitor for 2010.Wish I would have done more research before I bought this monitor! I don't recommend this for anyone who lives in something larger than a 2 BR apartment. Also the volume is very low, can't hear it over the tv or music, and those are never very loud.
 great monitor, better than sony baby call July 19, 2010

At first we purchased the sony baby call after reading favorable reviews. The monitor made terrible squeaking and squealing noises that were very disturbing. A friend of mine recommended the graco and we are thrilled with it. No annoying noises, very small and portable. I can wear it around my neck as I walk around. All around great monitor. Definitely worth the money.
 Works well for me June 14, 2010

I am very glad with this purchase. Paid less than $50 so this is a great deal. Cannot vouch for the coverage distance but I have no interference or signal-dropping problems as I have only used this indoor. The rechargeable stand and the small size are great features.
Good, depending on how much you pay May 12, 2010

We purchased this monitor while expecting. The purchase was on impulse from kids.woot, for well under the MSRP, and significantly less than is listed here (specifically, we paid $40). For that price, I think we got a great monitor. We had debated over getting a fancier one, but decided to wait and test this one out on our little girl before spending more money.
Pros:
- parent unit is really small and portable
- comes with accessories to make parent unit even more portable
- sound is really clear. It appears to pick up any noise, even a newborn making the tiniest squeak. This is even with the receiver about 6 feet away from the crib.
- you can expand with additional parent units
- has a vibrate function so you can keep track of the baby even in a loud environment
- battery life of parent unit is really long (haven't tested its limits yet, but definitely more than just a few hours).
- range is good. We live in a 1400 sq ft house and the baby is at the opposite end of where we usually are - reception is really clear
- allows for channel changes in case of random interference (I have no idea why some models, besides the secure digital ones, do not allow for that)
- has a light display to visually alert you of sounds getting picked up (once again, I have no idea why some other models do not have this)
- does not appear to be affected by a ton of other electronics (we have a wireless N router, a wireless G router, a DECT phone system, and numerous other items that probably give off feedback)
- receiver has a cool blue night light built in
Cons:
- parent unit is not very loud, even with volume at the max. I cannot imagine putting the volume below the max.
- cannot purchase an additional parent unit on its own, you have to buy an entire other monitor and then sync up the units. I guess the idea here is that you typically don't need more than one unit due to the portability factor.
- cannot use more than one of these within range of each other, as they try to automatically sync up (this is only an issue for people with more than one kid who want to use this monitor for both of them).
- in order to use the accessories for the parent unit (so you can hang it around your neck, strap to your arm, etc) you have to remove the back of the unit that holds in the battery. You don't disconnect the battery by doing this, but it would be easier if you could just switch back and forth without messing around so much.
- not worth it if you are paying full price due to the lack of other features
Compact, Logical, Well Designed, Easy to use May 3, 2010
C. McGuire (Montana USA)
This unit is smaller than it appears which is exactly what I wanted. It fits comfortably around my arm where I can hear clearly or feel the vibration even when I am mowing the lawn. The controls are obvious right out of the box and I am impressed by the thoughtful design, (ie. rounded edges, subtle colors, night light feature, etc...). The range claim is a bit exaggerated and could be improved and the only other improvement would be to make the base unit battery operated so I could move it from room-to-room without having to unplug and re-plug the adapter. Overall great product and would love to see it stay on the market with minor improvements.
