We're really pleased with this monitor. We have a victorian house with thick walls and the monitor can handle this no problem. Another really useful feature is that if my husband or I are in the nursery and need something, the other person can hear. This was especially useful in the early days of near constant breastfeeding or when dealing with newborn nappies!

The only problem with this monitor is that it interferes with our BT digital cordless phones at times.

Two problems - the microphone is located too close to the speaker, so when you play a lullaby you can't really hear your baby, and there are several tunes but only one that can be considered a lullaby (3 sisters) - the others are too lively.

Nevertheless, this is one of the best monitors on the market.

Overall this monitor is great, crystal clear sound and really useful features including the ability to turn the lullabies back on remotley. After 13 months our parent unit now has a fault, we can only use it with normal batteries which gets expensive night after night but we are yet to find a monitor that would be an adequate replacement. One disappointment was the sound quality with an ipod, not really worth it.

I have used this daily for 8 months now and love it. The sound is great, it is easy to use, and you can turn the volume off if you have to (although it still lets you know there is sound you need to be listening to!). Would definitely recommend it.

This is a top quality monitor. The sound is crystal clear, and we've found the two way talk facility invaluable if I'm in the nursery and I need my husband to bring me something, I can speak through to the unit upstairs and he can respond back through the mobile unit downstairs. The temperature monitor is also really useful as it's often difficult to judge naturally.

Perhaps a little more expensive than most, but we felt worth every penny.
