Baby Products Reviews of Safety 1st Sound View Monitor

Customer Review: Good with Caveats
Summary: 3 Stars

We are using this to track my mother who is in hospice in her bedroom. Here are some facts that may influence your decision to as to whether to buy this unit or a different one.
Pros: Inexpensive. Does the job it claims to do. Picks up even subtle sounds.
Cons: Does not charge battery. So you are either using it powered, or running it off the un-rechargeable battery, or have it off. At 49MHz, it's "buzzy". Has what could be a very annoying hum to try to sleep by. Also, it is extremely sensitive to RFI, (radio frequency interference). Please read the following: If you have an I-phone, you will not be happy about how poorly the Safety 1st Sound View Monitor and your Apple device cohabit the same space. The Safety 1st Sound View Monitor is sensitive to RFI as subtle as your finger working a touchpad on your laptop.

On another note, please bear in mind that the Safety 1st Sound View Monitor DOES NOT include or involve a "View Monitor". There is no "View" or visual to this thing, it's strictly audio.

As another commenter reported, if you are going to rely on this thing to live off of theoretical recharges of the battery, you are in for a disappointment coupled with the added cost of buying a lot of batteries, that by the way, require a screwdriver to get to. So as long as you are NOT planning to use its battery function often and just need to listen in on another room, and can sleep with a certain amount of "white" noise in the background, then this unit is the one for you. If you have issues with any of the aforementioned limitations, look elsewhere.

For my part, we received this as a gift from someone who had outgrown the need, so our "buy-in cost" was negligible, but the issues with the I-phone may render its life with me short. Also, my sister, who is tag-teaming my mother's care, has issues with the background noise level. Caveat Emptor.
