VTech VM819 Baby Monitor with Camera and Audio, 2.8” Screen Portable Baby Camera, Night Vision, 2-Way Audio, Temperature Sensor and Lullabies, Secure Transmission No WiFi, Ideal for Baby/Elderly/Pet

These monitors are my favorite. As a stay-at-home mom of 3 with one on the way, I like everything about these. I've purchased 3 of them, and my oldest finally went out (after 3 years of use, including being unplugged overnight, going with us on multiple trips, and being used for multiple naps a day - it was in my nursery). Of course I wish it had lasted longer, but I am satisfied with that longevity.Essential features in a baby monitor, in my mind, include...-the ability to mute (I can't believe they make monitors that don't - trust me, you want to mute it even if it is just for the minute the baby is crying while you are going to get them, if not, say, long enough to go to the bathroom first, etc.)-sound up and down - I am a light sleeper, I need it very quiet, and I can still hear even our white noise through the monitor, but I like to turn it up when, say, taking a shower or watching tv-a video screen (my babies are quiet when they wake up, I like to see if their eyes are open, and I like to know if something happened, like a foot caught in the crib wall, that requires my attention)-a good long charge - these last well over 12 hours (I run sound only for most of that time, no screen), though they take a bit to charge up after, often longer than the hour or two before the first nap, but catch up later in the day-a reliable charger, preferably not a usb one, those seem to break easily-decent range. Mine can reach a few houses away, especially if a house itself is not in the way. I can easily take it down the street to check my mailbox and stay to chat with a neighbor while knowing the baby is still sleeping soundly. I cannot leave the neighborhood, which is not a bad thing.-not terribly expensive-personally, I like the walkie-talkie option, I use it to talk to my toddlers sometimes, saying such things as, "Ok, it is time to lay down and sleep now" or "I am coming up to get you now, please wait patiently"This monitor has all of these features, plus more, like music (including different sound options, all of which last for 30 minutes, and continue with the parent monitor muted so you don't have to listen to it), temperature warnings (good to know if the heat/cool in baby's room goes out), and temperature on the screen. I personally appreciate that this is a closed camera, no video is being tracked or able to be hacked. The one thing I remember wishing for when I first got this monitor was a clip, to hook into a belt loop or something. My previous monitor had that feature and I liked being able to bring the monitor with me into different rooms without having to think about it. Perhaps it would be nice to have a battery in the camera, so you aren't woken up for any power outages, but I haven't minded that too much, power outages wake me up indefinitely anyway.If you are looking for a monitor, I highly recommend this one. After 3 kids and 3 different monitors tried, this is the only one I own now.

I’ve been using this wireless baby camera for a few weeks now and I’m genuinely impressed with its performance. The image quality is very clear, even in low light, which gives me peace of mind when checking on my baby at night. The range is also excellent, I can move around the house freely and still stay connected without any signal drops.One of the things I really appreciate is how easy it is to move the camera from room to room. It’s lightweight and doesn’t require a complicated setup, so I can quickly reposition it wherever I need to. The sound pickup is surprisingly good too, it catches even the softest cry and lets me know if something’s wrong.As for the price, I found it very reasonable for what it offers. It’s a great value considering the quality of the video and audio, plus the convenience of wireless use. Overall, I’d definitely recommend this baby camera to any parent looking for a reliable and user friendly monitor.

It was an awesome budget friendly baby monitor while we had it. Sadly our puppy destroyed the monitor screen and unable to use it again. The camera is not compatible to a different monitor so the cameras are wasted. Hopefully this company could find a way to sync a new monitor to a different set of cameras.

Great visibility, purchased as a travel system and works perfectly for two kids , love that It does a split screen feature which most cameras do not do. Only downfall is the range isn’t the best without a stronger WiFi connection. Size is not bulky and very easy to install.

Me permite ver a mi bebé mientras hago otras cosas en la casa, lo cual me da mucha tranquilidad.Tiene visión nocturna, el audio es muy claro y no se desconecta fácilmente. La batería también me dura bastante tiempo. Es una herramienta muy útil para cualquier mamá.Lo que más me gusta:• Buena imagen y sonido• Tiene luz nocturna• Fácil de usar• Me da tranquilidad mientras mi bebé duermeLo recomiendo totalmente

Love this baby monitor. Screen quality is perfect, day time and night vision are so easy to see. Sound is clear and there’s even a light that will go green, yellow or red depending on how much noise baby is making. The price is very cheap for how good this monitor is. It’s easy to plug into wall and take from room to room and I love how much distance the monitor can be away from the camera itself. We can have baby napping upstairs in crib while we are downstairs with the monitor. Very much worth your money.

This monitor has been wonderful, works consistently and have used it while camping lots and lots of times. It does not need wifi and makes it so there is no delay. Very user friendly and my daughter is now four years old and have not had to replace or do anything but we would buy it again.
