Advantages: Excellent monitor, affordable, easy to use, durable Disadvantages: It picks up everything even neighbours conversations
...hear you cry. The Fisher Price Sounds ‘n' Light baby monitor is a durable, reliable baby monitor which allows careful monitoring of your baby activities in his/her room while, you, the parent can safely be away in another, doing chores or engaged in other activities - lol.
~~ WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE ~~
This monitor consists of two units, one is left near Christopher and transmits sound (via a microphone), and the other is kept near you and receives ... ...BOTTOM LINE ~~
The Fisher Price name is highly regarded in our home. I have found their products to be of the highest quality, durable and very dependable. I would have to say we most definitely made a great buying decision with this product. It has done everything we have wanted it to do for us. This monitor has been dropped on more than one occasion and I have not yet had any damage done to it. It has been used almost constantly since we received ...

Advantages: It looks nice Disadvantages: Can't hear baby, lights don't change when baby makes noises
...there is some truth in Fisher Price's claim that the monitors have durable antennas that help allow for a greater range and clarity - heck, they are so good for spying on your neighbours, I could set up a "neighbourhood watch" from my bedroom
The monitors also have two channels to minimise interference, but in my experience, there is nothing minimised, because that is all you get - interference (+ sounds of dripping water from a neighbouring room ... ...girl)
This monitor also has a low battery indicator,is mains or battery operated and it takes a 1 x9V batter which you have to buysepareately.
I would NOT buy this monitor because your baby's life depends on it, and so does your sanity. I'd say go for a digital or any other monitor for that matter that does what it claims to do! ...

Advantages: Cheap & cheerful, Good Sound Quality Disadvantages: Operates slightly better on batteries than mains power
...But don't underestimate this Fisher Price monitor - it may be half the price of the Philips (£19.99 from Argos), but it's sound quality is crystal clear, the lights are slightly more gentle on the eyes than the red and green of the previous monitors and it picks up everything I want to hear.
I read the previous reviews, but to be fair, having a toddler is not the same as having a baby.... I have got past the stage of wanting to hear his breathing, ... ...night although, if I turn it up, I can hear his breathing too.
I haven't had the problems of hearing the neighbours through the monitor - through the walls is a different matter, but I'm not reviewing our brick work!
The children's unit is mains powered - the parents' unit is mains or non-rechargeable battery powered - batteries not supplied. I have been using this for about four weeks now and the batteries are lasting just fine. The only slight ...

Advantages: Cheap, easy to use. Disadvantages: sometimes a bit too much interference
I didnt want to splash out too much on a baby monitor and this was cheap at £20.
It can be battery or mains operated and so is fully portable, the base unit has a nightlight on it although I rarely us that feature.
It has two channels so you can swop if you neighbours are using the same channel as you - much like cordless phones.
I find that you can get interference if either of the units are to close to mobiles, cordless phones or radios etc ... ...the drunks passing by in the street 2 floors down. We have the monitor across the room from the cot and it still picks up all of my sons little snuffles, sometimes it sounds like he is being very noisy but when I go to check on him he is hardly making any sound at all.
The circle of lights light up with noise so if you are watching a noisy TV programme you can still be alerted when your baby is crying. There is also an adjustable volume control, ...
