Baby Products Reviews of Summer Infant Day & Night Flat Screen Color Video Monitor with 7" LCD Screen
Customer Review: An excellent spare eyes for any mother.
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this video monitor when my daughter was 6 months old to see if I can brake her habit of falling asleep with me. I wanted to be able to put her in the crib when was her nap time and let her cry a little bit without me worrying to much. I had an audio monitor but it's not the same. With the video monitor I could stay more relax until she would fall asleep and then I could go in her room and cover her up. It only took two weeks for her to get use to it. I absolutely love this monitor. The video is very good and the night image is great as well. I could even take the monitor with me to my next door neighbor (and there is a yard between us) and plug it in her living room and still I could see and hear the baby sleeping in her bed. The neighbor was amazed as well. Of course the image was not very good and had some static, but I never taught I can drink my coffee with my neighbor (who is disable) and see my baby in my house. Customer Review: Alot of $$$$ for something that stopped working in 7 months.

For what you pay if you buy this monitor you could buy two, TWO, others. I just ordered a older b/w "Summer" video/audio system and a "Bebe" colour video/audio system. Why do I say that? Because my 7 inch colour "Summer" video/audio system just broke. The on/off button broke. On other older "Summers" this switch is a dial. On this new model, and there are two offered here at Zon, the on/off switch is a spring loaded push button. It cannot be taken apart to be repaired, there is no warranty after this much time, and it is simply ridiculous that the on/off switch on an otherwise competent working system, was not designed to be more reliable. After all, being able to actually USE this system is why we buy it! Right? The screen of this model, however, is large but intrusive at night. You can actually read a book by it! The reception is good but can be interfered with by anything prompting a constant moving about of this model to maintain reception. The picture is crisp and good and so is the sound. But what good are these features if you can no longer turn the darn thing on! Talk about built in obsolescence. I recommend staying away from any model with a push button type on/off switch. Starting with this model. I intend to from now on. As I said, buy the two I revealed above that I bought as replacements for this big waste of my money. Not only do these other models NOT have push button switches, together they cost only a few dollars more than this model I'm reviewing. You'll have one for the bedroom and one for the living room or family room. It's really stupid and such bad business to make a good product with some faulty engineering details such as an unreliable on/off button. That is sooo stupid.Customer Review: Monitor review

Works as advertised. Interfered with lots of other wireless in the house including an RF remote control for my home theater and also a wireless lamp control. Customer Review: The monitor died!

Had the monitor for 10 months and all of a sudden the on/off button didn't work! Wwe tried using a toothpick to hold it on, but that failed too. Great while it lasted.Customer Review: Good video, but did not last...
Summary: 2 Stars
I thought the video was good... I got a lot of interference though and we had it for about 7 months and the thing died on me. The on/off button didn't work anymore. Also want to mention that the volume levels could've been better. For instance, the lowest level turned the volume off. The second to lowest level (of about 7 or eight levels) was REALLY loud. Every little sound that my son made would wake me up...
