Worked great for a year. This monitor is starting to have battery issues and will only work if it’s plugged into the wall. The moment you unplug it, it starts beeping very loudly.

Good audio, bad camera

Jocelyn - 6 months ago
This monitor is good for the price, but the camera quality stinks. The picture is grainy at night unless you are up close, hut you cannot move the camera if your child is moving around in the crib. If you do not care about clear image then this would be a good option because the audio and all other features are good!

Very bad - 7 months ago
Video quality was highly poor, it was unclear and there was a halo image in the room. Sound was really bad I could barely make sound of my baby crying. The lullaby sound worked when I first set up the device and stopped working after I turned it off and tried to turn it back on, all on the first day of set up. I returned it the same day I set it up.

MamaS - 9 months ago, Verified purchaser
Purchased this in April 2023 as a second monitor (for travel use). As other reviewers have said, just after a year it just stopped working one night.. while we were away on vacation to make matters worse. It kept giving me a linking error. I tried all the resets and called vtech for customer support, but they just said after trying all the resets there was nothing they could do to help other than give me a 15% off discount on another monitor since it was two months over the one year warranty period. Why would anyone order another monitor after this one breaks after just over a year of owning it? If you’re looking for an affordable, but decent monitor you can find better on Amazon. Don’t waste your money on this.

Target made me buy it - 10 months ago, Verified purchaser
Purchased this March 15,2024. It was great and suddenly it just stopped working. First the sound indicator stoped, then it would take forever to charge and now it struggles to stay “linked” and when you look up how to troubleshoot it just says the monitor is too far from the “parent piece” but it’s been in the same spot since we purchased it. Don’t buy it. I’ll be returning and purchasing something if better quality asap.

kj - 1 year ago
It does the job for the price. The only thing that will make me invest in a different monitor is the POWER LED light on the baby monitor camera. It’s green and bright. If my baby wakes, that’s the first thing that catches his eye and then he refuses to go back to sleep. We keep it pitch black in his room so it really messes up the whole point of us keeping the room dark. I wish there was a way to turn this off.

The screen has a good quality resolution even in the dark, but the screen goes into a sleep mode after 2 mins and doesn't give any audio or visual until you press a button. It's not a mode I have it set on either. It seems to just be glitchy and only registers very loud noises.

Good little Camera

MommaBear - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
I like this camera, it's small enough to stick in your coat pocket and the display is very clear especially in night vision mode. I also have the upgraded version of this camera and I do not like it as much. For the price this camera will do for what you need it for. I use it all the time and I've dropped it both camera and viewer and both have held up very well. Highly recommend if youre in need of a quick fix. 4 stars because it does not rotate or move with a button, you have to physically move thr lens to where u want to see. Otherwise never looses connection as does my other upgraded camera. It's not bad, I'd say buy it.

Fine monitor, especially for a budget. Has a bit of a lag in audio and video. Video quality is not great, but shows what you need. If you’re like me, though, and want to be able to see your baby breathing, the video quality cannot provide that. We returned for a monitor that has pan and tilt because it is just not worth not having! Would recommend infant optics instead.
