What we loved

The set up of this product was simple and easy and took a matter of minutes. The baby monitor design is attractive and modern. Plus, the option of two screens with a handy portable monitor for on the go convenience makes it great for travelling.

What to watch out for

I was disappointed that there was no pan or tilt function. Considering the cost of the product I thought it would have this added feature.

The image quality on the Parents Video Unit was poor, along with the zoom function on both monitors.

There was no talkback function which we find really handy with Amelia when we can't get to her immediately but she needs soothing.

There is no temperature gauge. This added feature gives us peace of mind especially with small baby's where overheating is a big risk.

Disappointed with this baby monitor as I thought it was overpriced for the amount of functions and features. Plus, no added benefit of having a large screen.
