Customer Review: Peace of Mind
Summary: 5 Stars
I was using a co-sleeper while I was breastfeeding. Switching my 4 month old to his crib was an adjustment for all of us. His room is at the other end of our house and it worried me not to be able to see him like I used to be able to. I was told by some friends that this monitor would be the best thing I bought - and they were right! We all sleep better at night. I can still look right over and see what he is doing. The only thing I had a problem with were the channels. I couldn't get a clear picture with the sound and picture on the same channel. So we had to put them on different ones and I still need to use my other monitor for the sound. I don't mind at all though. I just like being able to see him and what is going on in his room. That is what gives me the peace of mind to sleep better ant night. I would suggest this to all new moms. I will being using this for a while and I'm so glad that I purchased it! Well worth the $100!Customer Review: Loved it!!! Used it since she was 4 days old.

My husband and I love this monitor. We actually requested it on our baby shower list despite a few negative comments about its clarity. My daughter's room is about 50-60 feet away from our room and the monitor works wonderfully. We just felt secure having the monitor in our room and also being able to see her chest rise and fall rather than those simple sound baby monitor. We can also adjust the brightness and contrast at night so it would not bother us while we sleep and we were still able to see and hear her movements (A GREAT PLUS!!!). I can easily check how she is doing without having to go to her room and disturbing her.The clarity will diminish as the distance gets farther, it's not a HDTV baby monitor! Only problem is that we have an old cordless vtech phone and when we receive a call it interferes with the monitor. Overall, it's an excellent baby video monitor for the price. We prefer it over the sound monitor!!!
Customer Review: Summer is Junk!- Save time and frustration- Get GE 2.4GHZ
Summary: 1 Stars
This monitor is nothing but junk! I bought this and returned it because it was so bad. The reception, all over our house, was so bad you couldn't tell what you were looking at. You cannot use the sound part because the scratchy noise from the horrible reception. Save your time and money. Go to Lowe's and get the GE 2.4GHZ system. You can even buy one that hooks up to your TV ($150) so you don't have to have another bulky TV type monitor sitting around. You can add up to 3 cameras to one adapter so if you have more than one child you can watch all of them on your own TV. It costs a little more, but is very worthwhile. The reception is fabulous day or night. It's great to lie in bed and be able to switch to the channel your monitor is on and check your child while watching TV. There isn't any sound to the GE unit, however I wouldn't by this Summer one for sound anyway, we have a separate, better monitor for sound. Good luck!Customer Review: Really happy...

With twin babies and a toddler in our house, we were looking for a means to keep an eye on everyone throughout the day. We actually don't use this to monitor the babies' sleep, but to watch our toddler playing. We bought the package with two cameras. We currently have one camera set up in the playroom and the other in our family room. The tv monitor is in our home office. Although one channel doesn't work at all for us, the other two channels work nearly perfectly with little interferance. The only issue is when we use the office phone, which is 900 mhz and is right next to the monitor. Other than that, we have no problems. The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars is I wish the camera had a wider view. Still, I can see enough of the rooms to get an idea of what's going on and I can hear what I can't see. I feel much better now knowing that everyone is safe while I'm in the office working.Customer Review: Great for the $$$

I have a 19 month old and bought this monitor about 10 months ago. First of all, it's great to have the peace of mind at 2:00am that your baby is ok, just a little fussy, instead of having to get up and go into the room, upset baby and open another can of worms. I love it for that!!
Now that my son is older, we put the camera down stairs in the playroom. It's nice to know that if I want to run up stairs for a few minutes, I can see him on the video screen to make sure he is safe. In my opinion, sight is a real peace of mind.
I agree that there are times that the screen is fuzzy and it's hard to see what is on the monitor. However, I just mess with the antenna a little or wait a few seconds and it usually clears up. My thought is, it could be a lot worse.
Over all, I am very happy with this monitor and will buy it again in a heartbeat.
