2017's Top Rated Baby Monitors

When I found out that I was pregnant, I so desperately wanted a baby monitor due to my fear of SIDS. I Knew that if I had to do chores outside the room, I'd drive myself Nuts running back and forth. Although we put a baby monitor on our registry, we did not receive one. So when I was contacted to review one, I Jumped at the chance! When we opened the Philips AVENT Digital Video Monitor I couldn’t believe how pretty And amazing it was! Dad was definitely more excited than I was. The camera is super flexible which allows movement and rotation whichever way you need it. It works as a regular camera during the day and has night vision for Lights out time. The camera can be mounted on the wall for a more permanent fixture. I love the parental unit with its 2.4″ screen and controls. We can also control the volume of the feed. The parental unit has the ability to turn on lullabies on the camera to help if the baby is having a hard time falling asleep. There are 3 musical choices to choose from. Albeit the lullabies are beautiful, The sound coming out of the camera is extremely low and being that my daughter has slight hearing loss its extremely difficult for her to hear it if she is fussing. The parental unit works from 500 ft. away which is great. At night, Just give Dad the parental unit, so he can be in charge of what is going on with baby and Momma gets a great night sleep (Woo Hoo) ! ...read more

We picked this up at target when we switched to a toddler bed to watch so my adopted sister doesn't escape! It works well and we can even walk to our house next door (we live side by side) and it still reaches! We love that you can take pictures because sometimes they sleep in the most hilarious positions, ...read more

We haven't used this yet for our son as he's still in the bassinet, but we have for our nephew and it's awesome... I love having the portable screen to be able to see your baby and also be able to position the camera without going into the room and waking the baby! ...read more

You can sleep with peace of mind when you have an Angel Care Movement & Sound Monitor. This product is one of my favorite baby products on the market. It's so scary bringing your newborn home. I remember not sleeping those first few nights because I wanted to make sure my sweet baby was breathing. Once we got the Angel Care Monitor, I slept so much better. This product has saved the lives of many, including my niece. The monitor alerted my brother when his newborn quit breathing one night. They rushed to her when the alarm went off and were able to save her. I highly recommend this product to anyone with a young baby! ...read more

Overall I'm very happy with this monitor. I LOVE the ability to pan the camera from side to side and up and down & the night vision is very good as well. I also bought it because it doesn't use wifi, however, I'm not particularly happy with the battery life. I do keep the screen on most of the time because I mainly use it during the day so it does drain more quickly but I still wish it could hold battery life a little longer unplugged. And it randomly says it's out of range from time to time but I live in an apartment so I found that to be a little ridiculous, however, it's not a huge problem as it only happens for seconds at a time. For the most part it's great and does what I need it to do! ...read more

When I got pregnant with my 2nd this was a must have on my list. This brand has a lot of great features. My favorite was the night vision. You can purchase additional cameras and monitors too. ...read more

This monitor is absolutely amazing. It wasn't extremely expensive (I found coupons at Babys R Us for monitors and used gift cards from my baby shower to help) and it is so worth every penny. You can talk to your baby, move the camera all kinds of ways, play lullaby's for the baby, check the temperature in the room. And it has great night vision. ...read more
