> 24 hourA great monitor. I like that it isnt bluetooth or wifi because now I have the secure feeling of knowing no one can hack into it. The picture quality is great. It works right out of the box and charges quickly. It can easily be moved or mounted. Has other functionality as well like the sound machine and I can reassure my little ones that I am not far away with the two way talking. Its well worth the price point for all that it comes with.

> 24 hourThis monitor system is pretty nice. I swapped it out for my other one that didnt move. So, the camera could only view the same area. That is a pain when my little guy is playing in his room, and I cant see him because its focused on his bed. This one was also pretty easy to set up. I like that it was already paired with the monitor. Its going to take me a little bit to get used to the touch screen but thats not a big deal. I supposedly can shut the screen down if there isnt any sound coming from the room. We dont have that issue because we have a sound machine in the room. It also has a much clearer picture than my old camera system.

> 24 hourThis year is the first year I decided to add Christmas pillows to my decorating for the holidays. I had already bought some blue Sinterklaas covers and wanted some red covers to compliment. Not only can I use these for Christmas, but all winter due to the snowflake design! The snowflake is a raised embroidery and not a print. It looks very expensive but the price was quite reasonable! Adds a Scandinavian touch to my family room. Very classy!

> 24 hourThis thing took some time to get up and running so dont expect to plug it in and it will work. After taking some time to get all the settings figured out it is a decent camera however not perfect quality and very expensive for what your getting. I have another camera that is half the price of this one and it has the same quality so I would not recommend buying this one I believe the price is higher because of the brand and not the quality the product is offering.

> 24 hourMy brief experience with this monitor has left me underwhelmed with it, based upon my difficulty in getting it working, as well as other performance and documentation issues that will be addressed separately. 1) Getting Started Instructions are given in an 8-page double-sided folding pamphlet, with each page measuring 80mmx120mm - about the size of a 3x5 index card. The print is small, but mostly legible, and the translation to English is mostly reasonable. Some of the symbols and text are printed with white text on a light gray background, which are quite difficult read, especially one in a 14mm long x 4mm tall box containing two lines of text. The sheet tries to be comprehensive by including what you should know to get the monitor working. Credit for the attempt, but there are some key contradictions and omissions that prevent fully achieving this end. Hilariously or ironically, the designer of the box displayed a total lack of awareness by listing a retail value of $999.99, slightly more than the performance of this monitor would suggest... a) One reviewer has pointed out that only one power adaptor has been provided, despite the instructions stating that there two are supplied, and that the user is cautioned not to use any other charger or power adaptor. b) The instructions suggest that the camera and display are already paired/connected, and should begin to function once they are both powered up. (Mine did not.) If they dont auto connect, theres a section devoted to pairing. I went through this procedure repeatedly without success. The manual says: If pairing fails several times in a row, please contact after-sales service or local dealer. Mission impossible, as there is no support phone, email contact or website identified on the sheet or on the product box. I temporarily gave up after countless tries and no avenue for help. I eventually tried again, but this time I remebered seeing a reset pin device (which is not mentioned in the instruction sheet) tucked into one of the cardboard boxes inside the main box, so I tried resetting the monitor. After doing this, I was finally able to pair the monitor to the camera. 2) Performance Once connected, the signal strength is good anywhere in my house and also extends out into my back yard, although I didnt try to see how far it could go. Video looks fairly good, but at a sluggish framerate, which I couldnt find specified in the manual. So the video is a bit jerky. The colors were also OK. Theres an exposure control, but an automatic-exposure adjustment seems to be permanently enabled) Last night, it seemed to bloom excessively with indoor light sources near the field of view, but tonight it appears to be quite good. It also looked pretty good outside on a bright sunny day today. Audio is virtually unusable. Maybe theres something wrong with my unit, but theres a constant raspy buzz thats louder than the sounds its trying to pick up. This buzz can be faintly heard at all times, even when the on-screen speaker indicates that the audio is muted. I can quiet this simply by touching the antenna, and tucking the antenna in the stowed position also silences the buzz. Unfortunately, fiddling with the antenna this way doesnt make the camera audio any better. It still has large amounts of the buzz. 3) Runtime I left the monitor running for approximately 6 hours before seeing a display indicating that the power level was getting low. That was a pleasant surprise and totally acceptable. It should be noted that the monitor will run continuously if connected to a power source. Summing up, I found this to be a mediocre-performing system that maybe would be considered acceptable if not for the near-total absence of listenable sound. It turns out that Im not planning to use it for the intended baby-monitoring task, but more for keeping an eye on my outdoor shed and entry. Itll be good enough for that.

> 24 hourI received this baby monitor and immediately laughed at the $999.99 price tag on it. The box says please read the user manual carefully. Yet, it comes with no manual no directions. The screen had a plastic film on it talking about formating the tf card. I had no idea what a tf card is. It is apparently just a mini sd card, non included. It took me forever trying to find the slot. Move the camera all the up to the ceiling and then youll see the slot. You put a mini sd card in. Once in the monitor shows a mini card symbol. Yet, I cant get it to record, let alone play it back. Did I mention zero directions? I also dont know how to get it off military time. Apparently VOX is the 2 way radio. So high VOX means it is on the highest volume for the camera to hear the speaker on the monitors end. There is a few second delay. So hold the top telephone symbol, wait a couple seconds, then speak. The screen goes black if there is no movement or sound is detected after about 30 seconds. Youd think there would be a way to continuously monitor my baby. Of course, if my baby stops breathing there wont be movement and screen would be black. Seems dangerous. The only way around this is I have a white noise machine or a fan running and then the screen stays on because of the noise. The buttons on the monitor are flat and arent back-lit. So you need to move the camera in the middle of the night youll have to guess where the buttons are. It can play 8 different song tunes. Including We wish you a Merry Christmas. Lol. What an odd song for a baby lullaby. I do like that I dont need Wi-Fi and the monitor battery will last a whole night when the sound machine is running-keeping the screen on.

> 24 hourThis monitor provides clear picture and sound. The screen is clear in person, it only looks funny when I took a picture with my phone. There are a lot of great features included, some of which I wont personally use (feeding reminders) and some of them I love. The screen comes already paired to the camera so there really is no setup to speak of. Just plug both in and you are ready to go. Just a note-- directions say to only use the cords and adapters provided by they only send one adapter. Im using one we already had, and I really doubt it matters, but if they only want you to use theirs they should send two. It did take me a bit to learn what the different icons on the screen menu were, and I had to keep my directions handy until I figured that out. Now that Ive used it a bit more I love this monitor!

> 24 hourLove how warm they are. They are a bit big but i might have ordered them big on purpose. I cant remember. What i love about them is its so hard to find harm socks for toddlers. They took forever to come in the mail. And they little fuzz balls all over when you wash them but oh well they are warm and cute
