Summer Infant Handheld Color Video Monitor Reviews

I purchased the Summer Color Video Monitor.  This is my third child and it has been seven years since I had my last child, so needless to say, I have gone through many monitors.  This one ofcourse being the most expensive monitor I have ever purchased.  It was an attractive feature because it has the video monitor so I could actually see my baby which gives me comfort (and I didn't have to get out of bed a thousand times a night to check on the baby).  It worked good for about a nine months and progressively started getting worse. It was great while it worked but I would expect to get more...

I purchased the Summer Infant Handheld Color Video Monitor when my son started climbing out of his crib. I had been hesitant to purchase a video monitor before this because the are so pricey and often get mixed reviews.  I went with this one based on the advice of a cousin who has owned it for 2 years.  I love being able to see what my boys are doing in their room without getting up.  The picture is quite clear although it takes some getting used to if you have never seen you kids with night vision before.  I love that the parent end can be plugged in on my nightstand or travel aroung the house...

You can hear the child with any movement or cries. It doesn't pick up breathing too well but I don't keep the monitor too close since I'm afraid the baby could get ahold of the cord.
