 "Lasted forever" 2010-01-25
By J. Rodriguez
We have had this monitor for 4 years and it just now stopped working. We have used it 24/7 for all 4 years in both a one story and two story house. The night light is not too bright which is really nice. We never experienced any problems with feedback or picking up any odd sounds. We will be buying a replacement one in the next few weeks for baby #3.

By Billy Pilgrim (Atlanta, GA USA)
The static on this unit is horrible and virtually every night, for no reason at all, the power cord becomes disconnected from the monitor unit and it goes off. I have to push it back in multiple times to get it to work. If I had it to do over again, I'd buy another product. If I could give it zero stars, I would. When it comes time to retire this, I plan to take a hammer to it. Do NOT buy this product.

 "This monitor is a piece of junk" 2009-03-18
By S. Sagona (Louisiana)
When I was pregnant the first time, not knowing anything about baby monitors, I put this one on my registry. I wish I hadn't. A very lovely friend purchased it for me and I appreciate her generosity, but man, this thing is a piece of garbage.



The static that comes through is horrible at first and having been using it for the past two years, it's only gotten worse. I find it hard to get to sleep at night over the constant static it emits. Worse than that, is the Spanish-speaking radio station I tend to pick up on a clear night. Hey, I like Mariachi as much as the next person, not so much on my baby monitor.



Next complaint is the volume dial. You have to turn it up past the second setting to even get sound out of the receiver. The first time I used it, I didn't know this and there's no telling how long my baby cried before I knew what was happening. I still feel guilty about that. Secondly, when you turn the monitor off, there's a loud crackling noise that tends to be loud enough to wake anyone else in the room that might have managed to get to sleep over the static and "La Cucaracha".



Now that our second child is due to arrive, I'm throwing this thing out and getting something better. I can't deal with another two years of static and late night jam sessions.

The connection you want with the freedom you need! For the mom who wants the ultimate mobility with her connection to baby, micro-technology allows this monitor's receiver to be the size of a wristwatch. So you can actually wear it while baby is sleeping, and no matter what you're doing, you're connected to baby -- with an interference-free transmission up to 800 feet.

At the end of the day, slip the monitor into its docking station to recharge (just like your cell phone). As the battery recharges, it also works as a nighttime monitor. Other features include an out-of-range indicator, sound lights to let you see as well as hear baby's activity, different straps for different ways to wear it, a clip for wearing it attached to a pocket or bottom of a shirt, and a transmitter with a pager to help locate the receiver if it's misplaced. Includes one 2.4V Rechargeable NiMH Battery Pack.

 "perfect for my needs" 2009-09-28
By L. Meyerhoff (MD)
I had registered for a $100 baby monitor, that is small and can clip on me, as I move around.

Though, when I was in TJMaxx this weekend, I found this Fisher Price, Ready 2 Wear baby monitor for $[...]. It seemed too good to be true. So, my husband and I bought it.

We live in a condo, one floor. So, we don't really need anything with a really long range. Even though my baby is not here yet, I have already been able to use it. I babysit a 1yr old boy. And as, he naps in the other room, I have the baby monitor on, so I can hear him if I do laundry, or am at the other end of the condo. Seems to be perfect for my needs. So, glad no one had to spend the needless $100 on buying me a monitor I did not need.

 "Great idea-if it worked." 2009-09-07
By Mom to Sophie (New York, NY, USA)
Thought this product was a great idea for Moms/Dads on the move but it simply doesn't work. I live in an apartment and have the standard Fisher Price Sounds n' Lights monitor which has worked perfectly for us for 2.5 years. I bought this for our second baby due in October and tested it out today. After a full charge, I wore the monitor bracelet in our bedroom and immediately began hearing lots of static and a popping noise, followed by loud beeps that drove me nuts. The rooms are not more than 50 feet from each other. Sadly returning this product and will continue to search for something that works for us.

 "Complete waste of precious money" 2009-06-26
By Brooke W. Anderson (Salt Lake City, UT)
The very first thing we noticed was the severe popping and crackling noises the monitor made. We live in a single floor house, and the baby's room is less than 20 feet from our room, so I have no idea why it did this. It was hard to hear the baby over the crackling and popping sounds.



Second we noticed that the volume settings were a joke - unless it is on the highest setting or there is complete silence, we couldn't hear the baby screaming.



Third, the incredibly obnoxious and very loud beeping noise the monitor would make even when on the charger base. We tried turning the receiver on and off, recharging it, even tried unplugging the base unit in the baby's room. After 4 nights, the unit wouldn't stop beeping at all. Every time we turned it on, it would just start beeping. I [..]

I woke up to a hysterical baby because he had been screaming (for who knows how long) I am a heavy sleeper and rely on my monitor to wake me up when the baby cries... This monitor turned off in the middle of the night and completely stopped working after a month of use. Its the right idea (portable and small) if only it worked!!!

 "nice size but doesn't work well" 2008-05-13
By LJ (Atlanta, GA USA)
With our third child, we needed an additional monitor, and this one was appealing for it's portability. But, it has a clicking sound and poor reception at only 30 feet from our baby's room, and works only intermittently upstairs or outside. A nice idea, but I wish I'd bought another of the old "sounds and lights", which after 5 years, still works well. Fisher Price was willing to send a second unit to see if the "speaker" was bad that came with the wearable monitor, yet even the new one they sent made the clicking sound. Now, one of them doesn't produce any sound at all (though it still lights up).

 "The Worst Monitor Ever" 2010-02-02
By TexasGirl (Central Texas)
I bought this today to replace a monitor I had that suddenly stopped working after 3 years. This monitor has 2 channels and neither works. All you will hear is a lot of static. OK, not true, you will also hear music that is not playing in your house or TV that your neighbors are watching. What you won't hear is your child above all that noise. This is being returned first thing in the morning.

 "El Cheapo" 2009-10-14
By Melissa Williams (Arizona)
We have the really nice Angelcare monitor at home with motion sensor (which freaking rules, BTW) but I didn't want to travel with the nice one. So we went out and bought this el cheapo Fisher Price baby monitor as a cheap traveling monitor. Wow does it suck. You really do get what you pay for with this one.



Pros:

- Nightlight feature is a neat idea... (see cons)

- The sound-o-meter lights at the top can be seen from both sides of the receiver, which is kinda neat.

- the green power light on the receiver is crazy bright, if your eyes are adjusted to the dark you can almost see to walk

- I can hear my screaming toddler just fine, plenty loud and all that.

Cons:

- nightlight is not as bright as a normal nightlight, it's really dim so it's not as useful as it could be.

- the green power light on the receiver is crazy bright, point it away from your sleeping face.

- very static-y and buzzy. Sounds like a UFO is hovering on my nightstand. (Yes I've tried both A and B channels.)

- power cord for receiver *refuses* to stay plugged into receiver properly. I have to set it just right and very gently let go for it to work.

- tried batteries, which worked, but they didn't last long. could be a common thing but I could swear my Angelcare's batteries last longer.

- sound quality/clarity isn't as good as my Angelcare. With my Angelcare I could hear the tiny whisper of her breathing when she was a newborn.



Bottom-line... if you just need an el cheapo monitor to get you by for a while, or use it for travel, then it's tolerable. And if you leave it at a relative's by mistake, or if it breaks, you won't be too heartbroken. I really don't recommend using it full-time though, not by a long shot! I'm going to go post a review for my Angelcare monitor next, if you want to know more about that one.

 "Terrible Static!" 2009-06-22
By bibliophile (New Haven, CT)
I bought this because of the good price. However, I had to return it (save the packaging until you try it out). It was completely unuseable. The static was so loud that it would have kept me up at night. I tried the two different settings and they both had way too much static.

 "You get what you pay (so little) for." 2009-06-10
By Sarah (Virginia, USA)
As was said before, you do get what you paid for. It hasn't been a BAD receiver considering I only use it every so often for my son, HOWEVER . . . I have only had this monitor for 4 months and it is already broken. The first few times I used it, I got interference, static, could hear each and every word that someone in/near my neighborhood was having with their CB radio friends. The overhearing convos got so annoying that I had to turn to volume completely down and watch for the red lights to indicate my son was making noise! ALSO . . . I don't use the monitor on a "daily" basis, but the volume wheel, which is used to turn the receiver on, just completely stopped working. The past few days, it would turn and turn and turn THEN turn the unit on, but the volume wouldn't change once it was on . . . and it was difficult to turn off. It will now not even turn ON. The thing has never even moved off of the table, so it isn't like it's been being dropped and abused. Like I said before, it is OK if you want something cheap and are really using it very sparingly, but if you want something that is going to work for an extended amount of time, this is probably not a good choice.

 "You get what you pay for..." 2009-04-17
By M. Phelps (New Hampshire)
We received this at the baby shower and it's been working OK for the past six months. Didn't realize how inexpensive it was until I started shopping around for a replacement. Here are my thoughts...



Pro:

~ decent range, even out into the yard

~ not too much static, even with cordless phones and wifi

~ like the nightlight feature on the base



Con:

~ I hate that the off button is on the same wheel as the volume control. When you turn it on before going to bed, you don't know what the volume is set at and if too loud, the first murmur wakes you. This is the reason we're looking for a replacement.

~ the lights on the receiver are pretty friggin' bright, could keep you awake if you're a light sleeper.

~ build quality is pretty cheap, haven't dropped one yet, but wouldn't want to.
