Awful product! August 21, 2008 This video monitor is just terrible. I set it up in my baby's room and at first I was quite impressed, because I've only used the normal (non-video) monitors before, so it was so cool that I could see the room as I walked out of it. Well as I walked further away (only a few feet) I noticed it getting fuzzy and loud static building up. By the time I got downstairs, all I could see and hear was static. In our house, all of the bedrooms are upstairs and everything else is downstairs, so I'd normally be watching him from downstairs except when I'm in bed, but even from my room, which is just down the hall from his, there was considerable static. I pulled out my old basic cheap monitor and could hear perfectly. Seeing your baby when you're not in the room is a definite convenience, but not being able to hear anythign except super loud static is unacceptable. Even the $15 monitors provide that. THEN, as I took my daughter to the bus stop one day, I noticed one of the other mom's holding a video monitor similar to the Mobicam. I asked if it actually worked all the way down there, because she was about 2 houses away from her house, and it did! She showed me the clear picture and you could hear the music in his bedroom! She had the Summer Infant one, so I am returning this for a Summer Infant one asap!! Oh, and with the Mobicam, if the room is dark, you can't see a thing. And I dont' know about you, but when I leave my baby in their room alone, it's usually dark. There are day/night ones out there...
Love the technology / dislike the product August 11, 2008 This is our second purchase of the Mobicam. The first one lasted approx. 18 months. Be careful !! the unit is not durable and will break eventually.
Overall, we love the technology and have found the Mobicam to be extremely useful and user friendly.
LIKES: 1. Decent color and night vision picture quality. (I can see the baby's breathing chest movements). 2. Decent sound quality .. good enough to hear crying and calls for mommy. 3. Easily portable. 4. Provides just enough comfort and security that the baby is doing well.
DISLIKES: 1. You WILL HEAR tons of static. If you live in a basic suburban home, static should be tolerable ... if you live in an urban area or have a close proximity to an older 900mhz phone -- the static will drive you nuts. 2. Battery life is horrible .. always plan on plugging it in. 3. The units are NOT durable .. don't drop them, avoid being hard on the buttons and the extension cords.
For the price ... I'd buy the Mobicam again -- although I'm looking forward to improvements in the technology and quality before we have our next child.
Not a good product July 19, 2008 This product was given to us as a gift for our first child (1.5 years ago) and we've hardly used it. It uses up batteries like crazy and reception is terrible (audio and video). We're having our second child and we've moved into a new house, so I thought I'd give it another try as a way to hear my son in his new bedroom at night--that way we could leave it plugged in and avoid the battery problem. Still, the audio and video reception are terrible. Video isn't so critical at night, but the audio is just plagued with static.There's no way I would get any sleep with this thing within earshot (which defeats the purpose). We have a lot of electronics and wireless things on our home, which may be part of the problem. If you get it, don't tear up the packaging because you may need to send it back.
I think this is a great monitor July 3, 2008 I was acutally shocked when I just read a lot of bad reviews for this monitor. We have used this monitor for almost 2 years and it still works great. We live in a fairly large (4500 sq ft) three level house and it works everywhere including the yard. I have no problem with reception with the camera in my daughters room on the third level and I am using the monitor down in the basement on the otherside of the house. I highly recommend this monitor.
Terrible sound connection June 7, 2008 What do you want in a monitor. You don't want the monitor to be hissing and making noise all night. You don't want it making noise when the baby is just breathing normally. You want to hear when your baby starts fussing or crying. And you don't want hissing and popping. This device couldn't transmit through a single wall over ten feet. It was crackling for no good reason, and when our baby was crying the sound quality was terrible.
