Excellent Simple Baby Monitor, 16 Jan. 2018

Gave this set to my daughter and son-in-law despite the two other bad reviews on here. As I suspected, they were not reviews that need too much consideration. She is very pleased with them. The signal from upstairs bedroom to downstairs in a regular sized smal to medium sized house is absolutely fine. Absolutely no break up of the signal. SOund quality is fine for the intended purpose. Nobody needs hifi audio to monitor their baby. It has a string of lights that dance when audio is picked up for times that you might not want the volume turned up. Throughly recommend them as a safe option for your baby or young children.

Disappointing in a few ways, 11 Sept. 2017

These things are on the budget side of the baby monitor price range, but unfortunately there’s a reason for that. They don’t reach the same standard as you will get if you’re willing to pay twenty quid more or so.

They’re analogue, and it shows. In our house they are susceptible to a substantial amount of electrical hum, a constant pulsing and buzzing noise that just makes them unpleasant to have turned on. Unless you’ve positioned the baby unit very very close to the baby, then small baby noises get lost in the noise, and with older kids who can talk, it’s disappointingly difficult to make out what they’re saying when they talk or mumble.

Despite the advertised range of 300m, we found that these monitors also struggled when the signal had to go through a couple of fairly thick stone walls, because of the unusual shape of our house. So we were getting no signal at all from one end of the house to the other, and our house is obviously far far less than 300m...

baby basic, 19 Sept. 2017

The age of baby monitor tech is certainly very different now to what was on offer 10 years ago with video, HD quality, digital and a host of other features all for a very reasonable price. And being a new parent particularly for the first time, money is likely to be little object for those wanting the best, even if it pushes the bank balance.

So quite where does a basic audio monitor sit in the market even from a quality baby brand like Babymoov? Tricky one as for a few pounds more here there are video options and even digital options for better sound quality. But let's judge the Babymoov for what it is.

No problems with sound quality and the range was perfectly acceptable here in a largish house, upstairs and downstairs. Battery life seems reasonable even if they are not rechargeable units and can be mains connected anyway which many monitors usually are in the evening. Picks up noises well so offers that vital reassurance.

Little to criticise if...
