Couldn't be happier with this monitor... 
2008-08-12
We could not have been happier with this monitor! We actually purchased it for use with my grandmother, who is a severe asthmatic, and slept in a different room. And it literally picked up even a wheeze to alert us if she was having a problem. Great range, no static, picks up anything, aesthetically pleasing (modern and sleek) - you will not be disappointed with this, it would be worth paying WELL more than what it's listed for here. Buy with confidence! I have three kids and have gone through several monitors - but NONE as clear as this!
Good but not Great 
2008-07-29
This monitor is good for hearing your child, and I love that you can turn the volume down and see if he is still crying by looking at the lights....but...there is alot of white noise in the background. You can still hear your child clearly, but the while noise is still there. Nothing is absolutly perfect though, right?
Great monitor, Great price! 2008-07-22
I did lots of research before deciding on this product and I am very pleased with it. I have no complaints whatsoever. It is slim and easy to carry around. I specifically wanted to be able to take it outside for some gardening while my son is sleeping and it has worked perfectly. I have had no static of any kind and no problems with the charge when I take it outside. One negative review mentioned the flashing light on both the parent and child units. It is so miniscule that it seems ridiculous to even mention. I have the unit sitting across the room on the changing table and have no problem hearing my son. So if you purchase this and the blinking bothers you just move it across the room.
In short this is a great product and I highly recommend it!
Great Product for price 2008-07-09
I am very pleased with this product. I hear no static and I only hear the baby. It isn't strong enough to hear the baby's breathing but coughs are audible and crying is very audible. I keep it on at night stand next to my bed. It is very nice for when I am vacuuming or showering because if the baby makes noise the bars light up and even though you can't hear it, you can see that the baby is making noise. Some reviews said it was too loud and the light was too bright, but I don't have any problems with it. You can always turn the volume down or you can put tape over the light. And I have not had any problems with the range.
Not so great when the power goes out 
2008-06-07
The pros are all true with this monitor. It is crystal clear and only picks up our sons voice and not the music and fan in his room. No interverence, no buzzing, no clicking,nothing...GREAT..... however, as we just learned during some storms we had in our area, if the power goes out so does the baby unit, obvious right because there is no batteries thats fine, however, not like his other monitor we have it comes back on when the power does, not so with this one. You have to go physically turn it back on...IN THE BABIES/TODDLERS ROOM....in the middle of the night. I don't have quiet doors so when I try and sneak into his room for the second time in one night to turn it back on He obviously wakes up. It does not turn back on when the power comes back on, the parent unit because of the battery operation stays working and then of course beeps because it lost the link to the baby speaker. And only one parent unit is kind of annoying I have to go get it everytime I lay him down for a nap and then remember to put it back in our room at night and plug it in.
Thank goodness is all I can say 2008-06-05
The Safety 1st High-Def Digital Monitor provides a 100% clear connection anytime, anywhere. It is the next leap in digital audio clarity, providing parents ease of mind that they have distinguished between a gurgle and a whimper. This unit, from Safety 1st utilizes the DECT 6.0 frequency for guaranteed clear and private connection with no interference.
Great monitor 2008-06-04
I kept debating buying the Philips, but had a horrible time justifying the price, especially when I really only needed a monitor for our bedroom to the kids' bedrooms which are far away from each other in our house. Occasionally I will walk around with the receiver, usually if I am working outside during naptime. And we don't need a second receiver. The others in this price range had very mixed reviews. So I waited. Then this one popped up.
We had to have digital since we have an apartment complex behind our house. We were ALWAYS picking up phone calls and other monitors with our 900 MHz monitors. If we can hear them we have to assume they can hear us...
The monitor is quiet. No static and we can hear as much as we want. We can turn the volume way down and eliminate the "little noises" that people complain about with other monitors.
I love the small size. I am figuring out the lights. I do have to keep the monitor receiver turned and facing away from our bed, otherwise the lights are too bright at night.
I am so glad I didn't succumb and finally spend over twice the price of this one on the Philips, which I am sure is a really great model, but more than we need with a toddler and preschooler.
Finally! 2008-04-29
Finally a monitor that works. We have a house that is definitely not monitor friendly. We have so many issues with interference and monitors losing signal. This one is great. I read some other reviews that complained that the monitor was too quiet (that the volume didn't go up high enough to hear the baby properly). Honestly I am not sure what they are talking about unless they were trying to hear the baby's every breath over the vacuum. This thing picks up every little sound and relays it to the parent unit with perfect clarity. My beef with it is that it is too loud. I don't want to hear my sweety's every little grunt and gurgle all night, I just want to know when he is awake. But I have the parent unit set to the lowest volume and it is too loud. I have to stick it under my bedside table at night. But that seems to work, so I am happy. No more crazy alarms in the middle of the night because my digital monitor lost signal and no more infernal FUZZ from the analog. Hooray!
good monitor, flawed design 2008-04-11
I've only had the monitor for a month or so, so I can't attest to its longevity. However, Safety First doesn't exaggerate when they say there is NO interference! This monitor is crystal clear and has absolutely NO buzzing noise -- what a relief after our last monitor. Range seems pretty good, too. The one drawback I would like to mention is that the unit in the baby's room flashes when the parent unit is not turned on. What were they thinking??? I don't sleep with the parent unit on, and use it only when I am far enough away that I can't hear my daughter cry -- just an hour or two a night. The flashing isn't exactly a disco, but it's annoying enough that I had to hide the unit under my daughter's bed, even though the maker says to put it a yard away from the child for best results. In the day, I unplug the child unit so it's not flashing in her room all day. The problem is remembering to plug it back in at night. What a pain. But other than this design flaw, the monitor seems to really be quite good, which is why I am still giving it 4 stars. I hope the makers read this and rethink the design.
Works great 2008-03-19
Very quiet. Bought all different types before. The 900MHz and 2.4GHz ones still make hiss noises especially if you turn it up all the way. This one at full volume it's really quiet. Bought this from the NEX.
