> 3 dayThis product would have been just fine if not for 2 super annoying features. Annoying feature #1: Sound doesn’t mute. On the parent unit it allows you to turn the volume all the way down to mute but then turns back on maybe 5 seconds later. Annoying feature #2: Bright light on child unit. Since the parent unit doesn’t mute, I turn it off when not in use (aka when I get into bed, right next to the crib or when I have to resettle baby back to bed - no point in having the whole house hear me struggle to do this). But when the parent unit is off, the child unit blinks a bright green light. What is the point of this? To let the baby know that I’m no longer watching? Eye roll. Of course I could just turn off the child unit but I’d rather not risk fumbling with it while the baby is sleeping. I’ve tried to cover the light with FIVE layers of electrical tape but the light still finds its way through some part of the unit. Blah. Likely returning. UPDATE: finally decided to return this. I tried to make it work but I just found more and more annoying things over time. I ended up covering the flashing light by wrapping a fabric headband around it. I thought that would ease my annoyance, which it did for a while. But then, one day while doing loud-ish chores I turned the volume on the baby unit all the way up. My baby woke up but I didn’t hear him cry until later because the unit automatically turned the volume down to level 1. So basically this monitor does not mute OR increase in volume. Maybe my unit was faulty, who knows. But this is def not worth $70! I switched to Eufy which was double the price but it’s already a million times better and functional!! TLDR; Don’t waste your time or money. This is so old school - it should not be on the market anymore.

> 3 dayThe only thing I have a problem with is that the buttons are don’t always respond correctly. When I try to put the volume down the volume instead goes up.

Greater than one weekSo far, it does everything it claims in the add. The TALK feature is not as clear as I expected but it works. The sensitivity level is great. Once my daughter fusses, the response is instantaneous and we are alerted. As said, its worth the price. I have not had time to monitor the battery life though. Suggestion to manufacturer... the camera should have a back us battery so it can be used during power outages.

> 3 dayWe upgraded to this from a single stationary camera when we moved our baby crib into the same room with our toddler. Its great! I love that I can see both girls at the same time, and can pan around the room to observe more of whats going on. One comment I would make is that the parent unit is not a very stable thing. Our old one had a nice kickstand so when it was upright it stood very solid. This one does not have a kickstand, it just has a built-in sort of bulge on the bottom of the back, to hold it upright. So I cant lay it down flat on a table anywhere, and it gets knocked over easily. Other than that, we are very pleased with this product.

> 3 dayI they work very well, I live in an old house and sometimes we loose WiFi connection because of the thick walls so I was worried about losing connection, but so far have used it for a month with no connection issues. The only thing I can complain about is that one of the cameras always goes to night mode even when lights are on.

> 3 dayI like the camera and picture quality. I purchased for child’s room to monitor independent play. There is a red line that goes across the center of the screen on the monitor. The line is more annoying than anything, but overall the system works great.

> 3 dayI went from a Samsung baby monitor to this one. The parent unit on my old one would only stay charged for maybe 15 minutes at a time and the back wouldn’t snap on right. This monitors parent unit will stay charged for DAYS! Seriously. I don’t use it a whole lot throughout the day, but it stayed charged and was at about 50% after four days without charging. My other monitor did have a few extra features that this one does not, but for the price.. you really can’t beat it!
