 "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.

 "Too much static" 2009-05-29

This product had way too much static! If I turned the volume down enough where the static didn't drive me crazy, I couldn't hear my daughter. I feel like I wasted my money. I would not recommend this product.

 "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.

 "Not Impressed" 2002-07-09
By Alitza Abner (Butler, PA United States)
I wouldn't waste my money on this toy. First, the "moveable" bees are extremely hard to move because the slider poles are too close together. There are three buttons to push that light up and make different noises (very loud noises)...bees buzzing, birds chirping, and Pooh talking. My biggest problem with this toy is that my son has gotten his little arm stuck in it, and, at 9 months, cannot figure out how to get it unstuck. All in all, not a great buy.

 "Disappointed" 2001-07-26
By (Bethpage, NY United States)
My husband bought this for my daughter before she was a year old. It's one those toys that had held her interest but not at home (it must be Pooh that captures the attention). The bees are a bit hard to manipulate and there's really not alot of them. For an extra 10 or 20 dollars I would suggest getting a real beaded "rollercoaster"

 "My daughter likes it...but..." 2001-07-16
By (Rockville Centre, NY United States)
My 7 month old is playing with this toy. She like the way the "bees" slide and spin, and she is getting to use her fingers to make them move, rather than her whole hand (fine motor skills are getting used). I like it for her because it is one of the few things with small pieces that I don't have to worry about her eating! There are very few things I have for her that let her work her fore-finger/thumb piercing skills and let me relax while she plays with it. Needless to say at her age nearly everything goes in her mouth.

My one big complaint is that it doesn't attach to anything. I guess I could buy double sided velcro or something like that, but I'd rather buy a toy with suction cups or fasteners already attached. It would be one less thing to worry about falling off and getting eaten....and not permanent like velcro.

 "Waste of $$$" 2001-06-03
By Amy G. Alexander (Cincinnati, Ohio United States)
This toy was one where my son loved it in the store and has never looked at it again. You know the type! The bars are too close together and the wings on the bees are too long, so it's impossible for the child to manipulate the bees more than an inch or two. My child has literally not picked it up once. Don't waste your money on this toy!

 "nice but not excellent" 2009-12-20
By J. Buhman
Pros:

- plays a nice tune when it's pulled

- colorful metal notes

- soft edges everywhere

- tones are pleasant

- seems pretty durable so far



Cons:

- string on the wand is laughably short (so much so that you can't actually use the wand on some of the notes)

- metal notes are just a little too narrow because of the plastic knobs holding them in place; forces the player to be pretty accurate in their aim to get a clear tone, and a toddler just isn't



Find a heavy shoelace and lengthen the string by several inches. If you're worried this would be a strangulation hazard, then plan to either take the wand off entirely, or have a frustrated child whenever the wand jerks short when they try to use it to hit the notes.

 "Talking cell phone for kids" 2009-01-17
By Stevec2447 (Houston, TX)
We bought this for our 1 year old who loves to play with remote controls and cell phones, hoping it would distract her from the real ones. She loves to press the buttons and pretend she's talking when Elmo speaks. Each button makes 3 or 4 different sounds, depending on how many times you press it. Opening the mouth piece causes the eyes at the top of the phone to open, while I thought this might be an area that breaks, it seems to be quite durable. Our child also likes to open the eyes with her fingers, and this does not seem to have damaged the toy in any way. Like most toys for our baby, it has had several drops from the high chair onto the hard floor, and continues to work just fine. Overall, we are pleased with this purchase, and this along with the Elmo remote control we purchased seem to have worked in distracting our baby from the real remote and cell phone. We would definitely purchase this again.

 "my baby loves this toy" 2010-01-29
By Dani (Washington, DC USA)
I bought this for my daughter when she was 3 months old, and was amazed at how well it occupied her. For the first time, she would lie down and be entertained for a long time! I could cook and bake and do laundry while she played with her cool play gym! It never really worked for tummy time, but that was fine by me. Also we didn't get much use out of it through the weeks when she was doing a lot of rolling- the sides of the mat are hard plastic, and I didn't think it would be comfortable for her to roll over that. Once she learned how to crawl, around 7 months old, I converted it to a tunnel (which I found really easy to do, in contrast to some of the other reviews) and she REALLY loved that. Now she is almost 12 months old and she still plays with this toy almost daily. She likes to sit inside and look at me through the mesh. She loves to pull off the toys and play with them- the ball and the musical fish are her favorite.



I have to say, when I first bought this I regretted not getting a fancier play gym. But over time it has turned out to be much better than those other gyms. And it fits pretty well in our tiny apartment!

 "Terrible!" 2009-12-09
By K. Hillenburg (Indiana)
It took me about 20 minutes to figure out how to put this together the first time! I have no idea how to convert it to a tunnel. It is poorly made, and my daughter is not interested in it AT ALL! We have tried introducing it to her many, many times over the past 6 months and nothing. The connection between the mat and the plastic sides for the tummy time is very poor. The velcro does not attach well for the toys. The short velcro should be attached to the toy, instead of the bar. This seems like a choking hazard. The other thing is that the music on the fish plays two 15 second or less tunes. The price for this does not match the quality, at all.



I am so glad I did not purchase this and it was a gift. I was not even looking for a tummy time or playmat, but if you are, I would NOT recommend this one.

This toy was fun for our son until we tried to convert it to the tunnel. After 4 of us struggled to do it, we discovered that the it was sewn shut inside the tubing where the the tabs were sewn on.

 "Don't Buy!" 2009-10-19
By Nevin's Mommy (PA)
My baby does not like this product at all!! The toys are flat and do not provide any interest for him. The one fish that plays music plays two 15sec. or so tunes that are too short to bother. Along with that you have to push the button to play the tune, which probably won't be able to do until he's 6months old or so. The entire mat takes up a lot of room and it is not easily foldable to store without taking it fully apart. I also don't like the fact that the very heavy toys are attached by Velcro only and I fear that once he is able to grab at them he'll pull them off on his head. Very disappointed with this product.

 "Not sturdy" 2009-09-18
By M. Mishra (USA)
The major drawback of this gym is that its not sturdy. The gym is attached to the bar holding the overhead poles with a simple (and very small) velcro. My now 4 months old dismantles it 2 mins straight. It took him close to 5 mins when he was 3 months... that way this gym has helped him gain motor skills :)

 "not for babies who can't walk or stand alone yet" 2010-01-25
By Muriel Cheng (Seattle, WA USA)
I agree with the previous poster that the wheels spin too fast. The product seems too light and when my baby tries to grab for the handle, the walker tips or flies across the room. This only discourages my son. Our only solution to this is to hold the walker still while he is grabbing the handle and pulling up to stand and then walking along behind him holding on to the base of the walker to keep it from moving too fast. And all this must be done on carpet (even though the product description says it works better on hard flooring). On our hardwood flooring, the walker just slides across the floor.



However, I feel that the activity center in the front of the walker is very amusing for my baby. He seems to like it more than walking in it. The music and lights vome on when you put a ball into the hole encourages him to keep practicing his motor skills. I am disappointed that the shape sorter does not make any noise when the baby puts it in the correct shape though.



Anyway, we purchased this to help and encourage our baby to walk but it has only turned into another sit down toy. I am still looking for a walker that works for babies who are learning to walk. This product is more for babies who already are walking or at least standing alone.

 "Disappointed with the wagon function" 2009-11-12
By Christi Clark (Hollister, CA)
We got two of these for my twins when they were 11 months old. I actually picked them up at Wally World the day after Thanksgiving for $10 each. They've been playing with them for a solid 10 months at this point, so they are very durable. They put stuff in the shape sorter part and race through the house laughing the whole way. I had the bright idea to turn it into a wagon today and I'm seriously disappointed. I actually got online to see if I was missing something. The handle sits on the floor! They can pick up the handle without a problem, but since I changed it, they've stopped playing with the toy.

 "Good for Older Walkers" 2009-03-14
By A. Dayley (All Over, USA)
There is a definite gray area for this toy. It's not all good or bad. My son got this for Christmas when he was 8 months old and, frankly, I had t keep it out of his reach until he was a batter stander/walker, etc. Before he could get up on his own he would pull this over on himself and fall down, or try to lean on it and it would move too fast and get away from him making him fall on his face. He loved the toys on the front, but he couldn't resist trying to pull himself up on it and it just came to be more a pain than a pleasure. Somehow even when I made it into the wagon he would back himself in the head or something.



However, now that he is standing and walking all on his own at 11 months, we have busted the walker back out again and all is well. He loves the toys on the front, he is learning with the shape sorter, he walks to it from across the room and then turns around and brings it back. He's not coordinated enough yet to manage it when it runs into something, but he's getting there. It's great for older, more stable babies, but until then I wouldn't bother.
