VTech Upgraded Audio Baby Monitor with Rechargeable Battery, Long Range, and Crystal-Clear Sound

Simple. And works very well. Size is perfect to carry around

I got this to use when I was caring for my elderly mother. Her bedroom was on a different level than the one I was sleeping in and I needed to hear if she got up in the night on her own. This monitor worked just great. It's got great sensitivity too, and picked up any sound in her room- even when her dog was on the floor scratching his ears. It was super easy to set up and to operate. The remote I had on my end I could take anywhere in the house with me and hear my mom from wherever I was. Exactly what we wanted and needed. If you just want a "sound" monitor and not visual as well, this one works great.

There is no microphone to talk to the baby, or camera. It isn’t WiFi capable. It has one function to be able to listen to your baby while he sleeps. It’s easy to use…plug them in and turn them on. It’s compact l, light and the receiver has a decent battery. It has taken a beating and is still going. It is a solid functioning piece of equipment.

Rating 4 stars because the range and audio quality are great, and the connection seems more secure than other types. I also love that there's no constant static when it's on. 4 potential improvements, if V Tech is listening:1. DON'T HAVE THE MONITOR TALK WHEN YOU TURN IT ON. Any time you move the base unit, the handheld unit will LOUDLY announce that V Tech cares about your baby and give verbal safety instructions the next time you turn it on. This cannot be muted or skipped. It can, however, wake the baby you just spent 45 minutes getting to sleep. I have taken to turning on the handheld unit under a pillow on the other side of the house to be safe.2. Make the handheld unit heavier or flatter on the bottom. It frequently tips/falls off surfaces while charging. Again, noise while the baby is sleeping...3. Make the handheld unit easier to carry. I don't always have two hands to clip it on, and its rounded shape makes it hard to get a good grip on it. The "handle" at the top is too small to fit a finger through. Again, if I drop it, it makes noise while the baby is sleeping...4. Increase the max volume on the parent unit. We can't always hear the baby over noise at normal volumes in our room (conversation, fan on low, etc.).

Good clear sound and durable product. Can take anywhere you go, easy to use and functions great.

Super simple and easy to use. The lighting feature when it detects sound/crying is a great benefit all while not detecting the fan. Great product and affordable.

We’ve bought this monitor four times—and when it works well, it’s excellent. The sound is clear, the range is reliable, and the design is simple and user-friendly.However, two of the four units we purchased had battery issues very quickly. The battery life dropped fast and didn’t hold a charge like the others.When it works, it’s a great basic monitor. But the inconsistency in battery quality is disappointing.📝 Honest review from a real mom with real toy emergencies.Mom & psychologist sharing with purpose.María Castillo | @psi.mariacastillo
