I don't know why this monitor has received such mediocre reviews on this site.  I have been using mine for 10 months now and haven't had any problems with it yet.

The Fisher Price Sounds and Lights Monitor comes with two receivers and one base for the baby's room.  I put one receiver in my bedroom and the other in the living room for when I was watching tv and might not hear the one in my bedroom.  The "lights" aspect of this monitor are great.  When your baby is making noise, you will see a cascade of lights light up.  The more noise your baby is making, the more lights that light up.  It is very helpful if you have the volume turned down because you can still see the amount noise your baby is making by the amount of lights being lit up.  The base which is in the baby's room has a pseudo night light glowing on top.  It barely lights up, so I wouldn't really call it a night light.

When I received this monitor almost a year ago, it ran for about $35.99 which is a great price for the feelings of safety and well-being it provides.

The Scoop!

The main complaint people make about this monitor is the sound of static.  The only time I experience static is when the volume is turned up so high there is nothing to hear BUT static.  I give this product 5 stars and would definitely buy it again.

And if you take real good care of this--you can pack it away and pull it out for the next baby. Some parents keep them in family rooms or playrooms as the children get older so they can hear them talking, fussing, etc. Great review! ~Gigi

Terrific review. Baby Monitors really offer such a piece of mind. I loved mine.
