This thing is junk..tried various channels and all it does is emit a constant static. we had to turn the volume all the way down and only go by the lights. then it overloads when we run the microwave or hair dryer or other appliances.
we returned it.
the feature that I would recommend you not live without (whish this unit does not have) is the ‘voice activated’ feature…so you can leave the monitor sound loud enough to hear it when your baby is actually making noise but you dont hear a constant background noise.

This monitor is horrible. My baby has outgrown his bassinet and spent his first night in his crib in his own room last night, and we used this monitor from our bedroom a short way down the hall.

First, the monitor buzzes loudly, constantly. To the point I put a pillow over my head to shut out the noise till I could fall asleep. Then there are random clicks and pops and odd noises...over and over the monitor woke me up with screeches and odd noises, and I got up to check on my son...and he was sleeping soundly and silently. The noises from the monitor were NOT coming from the base of the unit in his room.

Worst of all, when he finally did wake up for a night feeding, I could hear him just as well 2 rooms away as I could over the monitor.

From my experience, this unit is better at torturing exhausted new parents than functioning as a baby monitor.

I am a dad and not good at shopping for these kinds of things, but I hit the target with this one. The range on this thing is AMAZING! I can go 4 houses down (200+ft) and have great reception! It is so clear you can literally hear finger nails tapping on wood. And the price c’mon you cant beat it!

We purchased this monitor after using the older lights and sounds monitor for a year because it was smaller and less clunky. It worked well for about 6 months and then began having a lot of static and interference. We tried switching channels and outlets several times and then it developed a new problem…complete loss of signal until we would jiggle the ac adaptor or just use batteries. Two weeks after the one year warrenty expired, we realized we could not take it anymore and called customer service. Not only were they completely apologetic for our trouble, but even though the warrenty had expired, they sent us a voucher of more than we paid for the monitor and sent us a postage-free label so we didnt have to pay for shipping! Not a great product, but we are really happy with Fisher Price in being so willing to make things right! EXCELLANT CUSTOMER SERVICE!
