I can’t charge the monitor as the plug is not UK

After tearing our hair out, trying to find a reliable baby monitor for the first 18 months of little one, a friend recommended this. We’ve had it now for almost a year, and I can honestly say I think it’s the best on the market. We tried multiple BT and v-tech devices, all of which ended up being returned faulty for various reasons like the parent unit stopping producing sound, or failing to charge, or the night mode failing. Not to mention the endless App issues with so called ‘smart’ monitors, which never worked reliably or outside of the home wifi (isn’t that the point?) and caused more of a headache than anything else. With this monitor, yes you only get the image via the parent unit and not on your mobile device, but for us this is more than sufficient when you have a reliable monitor which stands the test of time. The monitor itself was incredibly easy to set up, the parent unit produces great sound quality and volume (we found other brands really very quiet) and the night mode is perfectly clear and we can see our little one well. Not had a single issue since setting it up! It’s a very simple device and what we’ve found with the baby monitor market is, simple is best! Not to mention the price point- it’s really incredible for this solid piece of kit. More than highly recommend

Ursprünglich hatten wir das hochpreisige beurer babyphone mit Kamera. Dieses gab kurz nach Ablauf der Garantie den Geist auf. Es musste schnell ein neues her und ich entschied mich aus Kostengründen und anhand von Recherche für dieses hier. (Nur halb so teuer wie das beurer und viel Wertiger)Man steckt die Kamera ans Stromnetz, lädt den Empfänger auf und los geht's. Keine lästige App oder schnickschnack.Der Empfänger ist riesig. Ich persönlich finde das gut, so sehe ich mein Kind deutlich besser als vorher. Ton ist super und auch die Bildqualität ist völlig ausreichend! Der Empfang ist trotz dass eine Etage dazwischen liegt noch voll da, das war beim alten leider nicht immer der Fall.Einige schrieben hier wie blöd es wäre, dass das babyphone wegen dem vox-mode nur angeht wenn das baby schreit oder sich bewegt. Da kann ich nur sagen, einfach mal vernünftig informieren. Denn den kann man ausschalten und so das Kind ohne Unterbrechung begutachten :) was mir persönlich besser gefällt als der vox-mode.Was mich stört:Das Babyphone rauscht leicht je lauter man es einstellt desto lauter wird das rauschen. Das ist aber ja keine Seltenheit und bei vielen anderen Herstellern auch der Fall. Das hatte mein altes leider auch.Zudem stört mich noch, dass die Kamera eine leuchtende LED besitzt (im voxmode ja nicht durchgehend an). Meiner Meinung nach ziemlich nervig für das Kind. Auch wenn es nicht schön aussieht hilft es da diese abzukleben.Das Preisleistungsverhältnis stimmt hier. Es kostet kein Vermögen, ist gut Verarbeitet und kann Qualitativ defintiv mit den Hochpreisigen Babyphones mithalten. Zur Langlebigkeit kann ich noch nichts sagen, da es erst seit heute genutzt wird. Ich hoffe es hält länger als unser altes:)

I bought this monitor as a second for my older child, and I wish I had found this before purchasing my $300 imported German monitor. The screen is great, large but not too bulky. The build quality is great, in fact it’s better than my more expensive import. The VOX works great, the LED indicator works really well too but by far the beat feature is the battery. Check reviews of other devices and you’ll see battery life is one of the big issues. This thing runs a very long time, especially on standby VOX. I’ve only had it for a short time so can’t say how it will go in the long run, but it already lasts 4x longer than my other unit did when I first bought it. There’s a bit of strafe in the nighttime image but not really an issue. It has temperature warning and reading, adjustable brightness and volume. It comes with AU plug also, which was another win, considering my other unit has to use adapters. I’ll be buying another when my current expensive import packs it in.

Been using this baby video monitor for a week now and there has been no problems. This monitor is a good bang for your buck. High quality and it has alot of options. I like the fact that there's a zoom option and are able to panel around while on 2x zoom. I can see my baby up close and be able to see him breathing. There is also a VOX option if you want to conserve the battery. I didn't know about this. The instructions didn't really say what it was about. (i contacted the seller and they replied right away. A+ on customer service!) I had turned it on because it showed a picture of a crying baby and the sensitivity bar...thinking that it would somewhat alarm when the baby is crying. It does do this...but what i didn't know was that it turns off the screen to conserve battery and will only turn on if it sees/hears movement! How smart is that!?!I opted to turn VOX off as i like to see him all the time, so i drain the battery. Since it's a bigger screen, it's so much easier to carry and see. But bigger screen means quicker battery drainage. Don't get me wrong...It's not that quick because again, i get at least a whole day with it on and he naps about 4x a day for 2 hours straight. I would just turn the screen off when he's awake and i'm playing with him. But when he's in his crib, the screen is on.Another option is the temperature display. Which is good because i'm always worried my baby is cold. However, i need to change the placement so that my camera isn't by a window that the sun can shine on and affect the temperature reading. So if you can see in the pictures, the temperatures vary. LOL.I also like that there's a 2 way audio talk. So when my baby wakes up from his nap and is crying looking for someone...i am able to talk to calm him down while i go get him. Great sound for such a small speaker.There's also a lullaby feature, but i haven't used it yet...and i don't think i will use it, as the baby's room has a bluetooth speaker that plays lullabies from my spotify playlist. But if baby's room doesn't have it, that would be a good option to use.Although it runs on 2.4ghz, i don't lose signal with the base camera nor does it interrupt other signals in the house. I always have full bar of signal.I can't say anything negative about this item at all. i gave 4 stars for battery life because i am hoping they figure out a way to get at least 2 days worth without having to charge the monitor. But, again, the picture quality, size, sound... and all options makes up for it. I don't mind having to charge it.I highly recommend this product. We got it on sale so it was such a bonus! I'm happy to be giving this honest review to parents that is having 2nd thoughts in purchasing this. It's also a great gift for a baby shower, or for Christmas, new baby, etc. You won't be disappointed. I promise.
