Ahh, baby has finally fallen asleep. Time to do the dishes/eat dinner/go to sleep…but wait! Is that the baby waking up? Is she coughing? Is she breathing? Every new parent (and one or two veteran ones, too) knows this scenario. It's lovely when your baby sleeps, but it sure would be nice to keep an eye on her, too. But there aren't too many parents around who have the luxury of sitting quietly in baby's bedroom, watching her sleep. This is why baby monitors were invented. And traditional audio monitors are a terrific boon to modern parents. But the Day and Night Handheld Color Video Monitor—now here is technology at its finest! Turn On, Tune In, and Stay Out of Baby's Room
With this slick little monitor, not only can you hear your little angel's every breath and snuffle and rustle, but you can see her every move, too! From anywhere in the house, no less! Sound lights visually show baby's level of activity, while nighttime LED lights on the camera make the baby fully visible day and night. Simply push one button on the parent unit to take a peek, then push the same button when you're reassured enough to rely on the sound lights for a while. With a 350-foot range, you can carry the monitor receiver everywhere you go, even into the yard. And, most importantly, you won't be tempted to poke your head in through that creaky bedroom door you keep meaning to fix just for a quick look at your little tot—which inevitably results in her waking and needing to go through the whole bedtime rigmarole again. Techy Details
The 1.8-inch screen is plenty big enough to see what you need to see: your little darling's slumbering form in full color (during daylight hours) or black-and-white (the automatic nighttime view). The parent unit includes 900 MHz technology for superior clarity of sound. If static occurs, switch channels on the two-channel selection to minimize interference. Two power options—rechargeable battery or A/C—provide parents with the freedom to roam or stay put. The rechargeable battery lasts up to 10 hours, making it a good choice for travel. The parent unit also includes an audio/video output jack and is headphone-ready (headphones not included). Brightness control and volume control features allow parents to tone it down or turn it up when necessary. Screen automatically "times out" to save batteries. "Power on" indicator lets parents know, well, when the unit's on! Baby's unit includes A/C-powered camera, nighttime LED lights for viewing baby in a darkened room, self-filtering directional microphone, two-channel selection to minimize interference, and "power on" indicator. And You Put It…?
Baby's unit provides tabletop or wall-mounted options. A belt clip and stand on the parent unit allows complete portability, while an anchor and security clips (6 included) enables parent to mount the receiver on the wall. --Emilie Coulter

|  | | 
Keep an eye on your baby from up to 350 feet away. View larger. | Quick and Easy Operation
The two-channel Quiet Sounds installs in just minutes without any tools, so you can enjoy the benefits of wireless video and audio monitoring right away. Compact and lightweight, the monitor can then be attached to the included belt clip or simply placed on any flat surface (a stand is included); you can also use the included mounting hardware and mount it to a wall. Once installed, the 900 MHz camera transmits clear pictures and sounds to the video monitor with ranges up to 350 feet (clear line of sight) and 100 feet (obstructed). And it's a snap to add up to two more cameras (sold separately) if you wish to simultaneously monitor more rooms, an option that's especially convenient as your family grows. Crystal Clear Reception
This handheld monitor utilizes the latest FM band technology to provide crystal clear reception. In addition, it has an easy to read, 1.8-inch, high resolution, full color LCD display and LED sound lights. Most importantly, this monitoring solution avoids interference caused by other 2.4GHz devices commonly found in the home--like 2.4 GHz cordless phones and wireless 802.11 computer networks--so you won't have to worry about excessive static. Keep Track of Baby at Night
One of the most helpful and unique features of the Quiet Sounds monitor is its night vision capabilities, which allow parents to check up on their sleeping baby without disturbing his or her rest. Nine built-in infrared LEDs permit the camera to view clear black and white images within a distance of up to six feet in total darkness. Another night-time option is to turn off the video button and choose the audio-only option. A super sensitive microphone built into the camera alerts sleeping parents that their baby is making noises, crying or moving around in his or her crib. Longlasting and Reliable
This sleek plastic monitor comes with rechargeable batteries that lasts up to 10 hours. It also boasts a power-saver feature that times out after three minutes when running on the battery. For added convenience, external audio/video outputs provide connections to existing video recorder or home television, and you can even purchase headphone jacks for private monitoring. What's in the Box
Video camera with transmitter, handheld monitor with receiver, two AC power adapters, rechargeable battery pack for monitor, wall mount bracket and hardware for camera, belt clip and stand for monitor, and user's manual.

a little interference, but overall worth it! July 26, 2010
S. Decker
I already had a summer video baby monitoring system and it was operating worse and worse. I purchased this one to replace it and have been very happy. We keep one camera in my baby's room and one in my 4 yr old's room. This unit only comes with one camera unless you purchase an additional one. There is only one spot in the house that I have found a popping interference sound on the monitor. We have a two story home with a finished basement and when my 9 month old naps on the 2nd floor I often am in the basement with my other two children. I just bring the portable monitor with me and it works wonderfully. I was impressed by the clarity of the monitor, even though it is much smaller than my old one. I even bring it outside if I am working in the yard while he is napping. Overall, a good buy for the money.
 Good if you don't mind NO privacy...seeing other babies July 25, 2010
Lori B. Kostrewa
I did my research before buying the Summer Infant Day and Night monitor. It seems like many people opt for this monitor and it got mostly good reviews so I figured I would try it out.
At first, I did like the monitor. The picture is very clear, even at night. And the range is pretty good, I could go outside and still get a pretty good signal for video/audio.
Right away, I noticed something very STRANGE: I occasionally saw a different crib!! I tried the other channel, but the other channel's signal was not as good. Seeing the other baby's crib happened when the reception for my channel wasn't as good. I live in a townhome, but I know for a fact that there are no babies in cribs in my building or in the building next to me. It might be a building across the street?!
At first I thought I could live with that since otherwise it was a good monitor, but as I thought about it, I became more uncomfortable with the idea. Someone may occasionally be able to see my son. This is not safe at all. I don't want some random stranger being able to see my son's room, his routine, what he looks like, etc. Plus, at night I go into my son's room in a shirt and underwear.
If you don't mind other people being able to peep into your house, then this is a good monitor, otherwise, opt for a digital monitor that is more secure. We will be returning this one asap.
good product but needs a mechanism to adjust July 24, 2010
S. Ozev (AZ, USA)
We love this monitor. The video quality is better than expected. The audio is very sensitive if you have the baby further away from the monitor. You can control the volume, which is great. Night vision is very good. Of course, you can't see exactly what the baby is doing, but I can see whether he has opened his eyes or is just wiggling in his sleep.
I have two complaints:
1. There is no way to know whether your baby is in the picture without having the mobile unit. Then, I worry about positive feedback and noise if I bring it into the room. Not to mention I forget most of the time. So, I always end up going up and down the stairs to adjust the tilt.
2. When you turn it first on, it goes into the video only mode. You can't hear even if the baby screams. I learned it the hard way. Make sure you turn the dial just a little past the on position.
I know some people mentioned that the security is bad, everyone with a base can see the picture. It is not a problem in my neighborhood where houses are far apart. I tried to take the monitor to the neighbor's house and it did not work there. If you are living in an apartment though, I would be wary. Countless times, I walked passed the transmitter not in appropriate clothing...
 two thumps up July 21, 2010
Luke's Mom
Can listen and visualize my baby clearly whenever he goes to bed.
Some statics here and there but manageable.

Boo- don't go with this unit. In my opinion, when you spend this much on a product, it should at least last as long as you need it to. Like while your children are little enough to want to monitor them. I thought I would be able to use this for my 2nd child, but no such luck. I have a stereo that lasted 30 years and this monitor's volume started to malfunction after only about a year.
If you call they tell you to blow air into the volume dial opening. ???? What? Because dust gets in there. How bizarre. Just as other reviewers mention, you can have a refurbished model for 80 bucks (no thank you.) The battery stops charging within no time at all, as well, so one would need to almost immediately replace the battery. I always charge it all day long and it still won't even allow me to listen with the video screen turned off for more than a few minutes. I also was never in love with the volume dial in general, being that you rotate UP to turn it down, and rotate DOWN to turn it up. I can get used to anything, but it doesn't make much sense.
I give this product a big "BOO" for the money. One year warranty? Really? Shouldn't it really last longer that ONE YEAR? The rep told me a lot of people have no problems with it... well that's nice for them but sucks for me!
