Advantages The nightlight?

Disadvantages Slow to recharge and slow to kick in.

Advantages: The nightlight?

Disadvantages: Slow to recharge and slow to kick in.

When it comes to a baby monitor you really need something that is reliable. I do not feel that this product is 100% reliable despite being made by a manufacturer whose products I do trust for my baby (I use their bottles and have their baby bath thermometer).

Even when it is fully charged our monitor has been known to loose connection from one part to the other, leading me never to fully trust it. It also takes a while to kick in when the baby makes a noise. I believe that this might be a battery saving function but I, as a paranoid parent would rather hear every sound and not worry about recharging the battery.

And when it comes to the battery on the walkabout part it does take a considerable amount of time to recharge.

Overall I think Philips Avent could do better, and I hope they do perhaps in time for any future babies!

Summary: Rubbish!

    As mentioned in reply to your other "helpful" comment, I would like to point out that these are all my own reviews which have previously been written on another review site. I merely want to share them with other readers who may not view the other sites.
