Baby Products Reviews of Fisher-Price Private Connection Monitor with Dual Receivers - White
Customer Review: Do not buy!
Summary: 1 Stars
We were thoroughly unimpressed with this monitor. Its static wasn't just the white noise kind but like interference from a walkie talkie, so we'd lie awake waiting for the next loud crackle. Not only that, at full volume we could barely hear our baby! The manual changing of the channels on both the receiver and monitor was equally annoying. We just bought a Safety 1st DECT monitor and so far it seems to be far superior. Customer Review: Would not recommend
Summary: 2 Stars
The receivers are good; sound quality is good, and I like how the receivers and rechargable and last for about eight hours or so without a charge. However, I have owned this product for about 7 months and the monitor base isn't working so well. It doesn't want to turn on. I don't think it will make through the year. It's hard to find something that actually lasts.Customer Review: If you want to sleep, DON'T BUY THIS MONITOR

We bought this to replace a sony Baby Call that was wearing out after 3 1/2 years of everyday use. The store we went to didn't have the sony, which we wanted, so we settled for this fisher price piece of garbage. This thing never is silent even if nothing is on in the room. What's the point of a baby monitor if all you hear is static and it keeps you up. If you want to stay up all night and hear every little wimper or sound your new baby makes, then this is a good monitor, if you want to sleep and only hear the REAL cries of a baby, then the BEST monitor is the Sony Baby Call monitor model 910. it's cheaper than this private connection and has VOICE ACTIVATION! Why can't all the manufacturers think of this, so the darn thing is off until the baby actually makes a loud enough sound to turn it on. This fisher price monitor is going back to the store where we bought it and I drove to another store farther away today to make sure we got the sony baby call. forget all other monitors and buy a sony. it's the best one out there and i have nothing to gain by pushing their product other than to say it's the ONLY monitor that should be sold in any store. the rest are all garbage without voice activation. We were up on/off all night last night listening to every little sound the baby made and the static that goes along with it. The volume adjustment shouldn't even be there because you can hardly tell a difference between the lowest setting and the highest setting.
how people can say this is a good monitor is beyond me, it's garbage, don't listen to anyone who tells you to buy it. RUn and buy a sony,
Customer Review: Keep this for a long time
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this as a gift based upon the recommendation of my daughter who has been using one. Hers was so good that her neighbor borrowed it and packed up the more expensive one she had. That being said, having the cordless option allows mom or dad to walk about or go outside BUT if you don't need a cordless option, I recommend a good ol' intercom that plugs in. I have had one (from Radio Shack) for almost thirty years that we used to communicate with kids upstairs or down in basements, as well as listen for baby cries or elderly calls in the night. This is something that has uses far beyond infant care.Customer Review: ***** JUNK!! do not waste your money on this one *******
Summary: 1 Stars
Pros:
1)rechargeable batteries;
2)LED sound lights on receiver can see from both sides
3)new design
Cons:
1)sound from receivers is low even high volume and constant static
2)have 10 channels but you have to manually set the channel on both the receiver and transmitter; they need ought to have an automatic channel changer to get best signal so you won't have to manually change it.
3) LCD screen on receivers has a backlight when you turn it on but needs a backlight button to press to see otherwise you need to turn it off then on to come on.
4) range alot less than product states
This is the 2nd monitor I returned and in its place I bought the Fisher Price Sounds 'n Lights 49Mhz model M5578 and it works great loud and clear the only drawback is it uses batteries they are not rechargeable but have an AC power like other monitors.
