Baby Products Reviews of Fisher-Price Private Connection Monitor with Dual Receivers - White
Customer Review: Waste of Time and Money
Summary: 1 Stars
We bought this monitor 2 weeks ago, and I'm already shopping for a new one. The static is NON STOP. We can't hear our son over the static. It's ridiculous. We leave it plugged in during the night and use the batteries during naptimes. The batteries last about 2 days. It beeps constantly, even when the base is plugged in and turned on. (it says it has a far reach, but my sons room is 2 rooms away and it can never seem to find the signal) DON'T BUY THIS MONITOR. Waste of money!!!Customer Review: Great Product
Summary: 5 Stars
This is our second monitor because we lost track of the parts for our first monitor after lack of use. However, we decided to start using one again after sitting our front of our house when our son went to sleep. This monitor had all the qualities we were looking for. We love this monitor, it's reach is excellent. I see all of our neighbors monitor give them nothing but static and constantly needing to move their monitors when the signal dies. This monitor consistently provides clear and reliable signal. It's so good sometimes, I have to go in the room to ensure its still working. Usually I stop when I open the door to the room and hear myself. We will be retiring it because we need a two room monitor because of our second child. There is one flaw that occured about 1 month or so after initial use. One of the two receivers did start picking up static, however the other one is clear. Therefore I attribute this to owner wear and tear, not the monitor itself. I have not researched it but if this model could adapt to a second monitor it would be perfect.Customer Review: Love this Monitor--two will work together!
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased my first set of Private Connection monitors after I dropped my cheap one and broke the receiver. I loved that I didn't have to carry this one around so much because it came with 2 receivers and they had rechargable batteries. I leave one next to my bed and one downstairs--they have been on constantly for 2 years and I've NEVER had one problem with them. We have a large home (3000sq ft w/ basement) and can take it outside anywhere and still have crystal clear reception.
We're expecting our second child any day now...but my daughter is just two and I don't feel comfortable with her not having a monitor as well. I did a lot of research and came up with nothing when it came to the compatability of using 2 monitors, but I took the leap and bought a second set and it works perfectly just setting it on a second channel. Granted, I will have to deal with two receivers, but I barely ever carry them around anyway. I just put girlie stickers on my daughter's and more manly ones on the one for my son to tell them apart quickly.
I took back many monitors that were static-y and hard to work or constantly drained batteries. I highly recommend these!!!
Customer Review: Excellent, durable monitor
Summary: 5 Stars
We use this monitor in our 3 story townhouse and we always get excellent reception from any floor. I can also testify to the durability of this monitor: while on vacation, a gust of wind blew one of the receivers into a hot tub. After fishing out the receiver it appeared to be dead and I was so mad at myself for leaving it too close to the hot tub. However, I removed the battery and after drying out the receiver started working again and has never given us any trouble.Customer Review: Great reception, great price
Summary: 4 Stars
I live in an 1800 sq. ft., one story house. I keep the monitor on the far end of the house with the microphone about 5 or 6 feet away from my baby's crib. Even with the receiver on the farthest end of the house I can hear everything. No joke, I even heard my baby pass gas in her sleep. It's very easy to set up, just set the monitor and receivers to the same channel. You can even use the receivers while charging them. I would give it 5 stars if it weren't for the very slight noise on the receiver. Kind of like a walkie talkie static sound. It's not too bad though. I highly recommend this monitor, especially at this price.
