5* out of 5* Five stars for the Fisher Price baby monitor.., October 30, 2009
My wife and I are constantly up and down stairs in our townhouse and have found that the reception on this system has shown no signs of degradation even with two floors separating us and the baby. The remote functionality of this model is one of the best parts which has saved us on those additional trips to comfort the baby by activating any of the numerous sounds that are available with this model. This is a great product that I would recommend to anyone looking for a quality baby monitor.
4* out of 5* Excellent for most folks; Battery life the only real negative, November 10, 2009
Ultimately you're looking for something that audibly & visually monitors your baby. This is a pretty good product for that purpose. There is no biometric measurement, which would have made this a complete all-round product.
Camera: Colours are a little off during the 'day' mode as if the reg/green/blue is just off a little. Doesn't affect the monitoring. As mentioned in other reviews, the camera will "freeze" for a second every 7 seconds or so but it's not bad. The night mode is good - obviously black and white - no colour here and does need to be played around with to get the best display for you... Video resolution is fine - you're probably not going to be able to tell if you're baby is breathing all the time, and the audio won't necessarily pick it up. If you're concerned about this, get something with biometrics.
Audio: We had a seperate audio unit previously and the audio pickup on this unit is as good. No qualms here.
Battery Life: Poor. Maybe 1 - 2 hours and that's your lot. Would be nice if they had improved this somewhat.
Other features: Has the usual music/nature sounds, small orange night light settings which you can turn off from the monitor handset or the the unit itself.
A bracket and cable tidy come with the unit. When setting up the unit to be placed on the wall it's worthwhile having someone on hand to help you set up the position of the unit - and a baby or something babyesque to prove out that when they move around the camera is well positioned. Trying it out in night mode might be the best way to do this so you know worst case visual. Obviously the further away from the baby the wider the viewing, but also the less definition on t the baby.
In 2 weeks of having this unit we've been very pleased; the extra time setting up the unit on the bracket has paid off and no amount of wiggling around the crib goes undetected! :)

3* out of 5* The Best... As Long as You Keep it Plugged In, October 19, 2009
The thing that comforted me most was that it used a transmission frequency not used by the other major monitor manufacturers. After reading a lot of other reviews about seeing babies of neighbors... I definately wanted something different. We've been using this for 6 months now, and I have to say the picture and audio quality is amazing - especially the night vision.
It also allows you to pick a few songs to play if you want remotely or on the montior unit and has a decent nightlight. So why 3 stars? The battery life is horrid. You might as well pretend it's not wireless at all. When we first bought it, we were able to use it about 40 minutes. After that first time, it literally lasted 10 minutes less each time we charged it back up... so after about 4 uses, we get our typical 5 minutes of wireless use. Thank goodness we use it plugged in.
If you can live with a "wired" baby monitor, I think it would be hard to beat the features, image quality, and audio quality of this product
