Really good value.this is 2nd purchase, they are brilliant to monitor someone elderly also,very easy to setup its basically plug in and switch on.its 2 way audio so the main handset as a talk button on the sidewhile the other just picks up anything and relays back, For example a spoon fell on the floor and it picked it up,there's a subtle night light on it also that is just enough.In all honesty these are better value and quality than monitors that cost double.

Absolute trash. Rechargable battery doesn't charge. Even if the product is plugged in, the battery can drain and stop functioning. Avoid this brand at all costs.

ممتاز حساسية الصوت ما يحتاج تحطه جنب الطفل يقدر يبتقط الصوت من مترين . المسافه بين الجهازين كبيره وهذا يسهل للام النتقل بالبيت.

Update (22/10/2022)==================Another 2 years on and this unit is now about 7 years old and still going strong. Baby 2 is now 2 3/4 years and we use this every night.I had to change the batteries again. It took trial and error to find a set that worked well. I eventually found some designed for a cordless phone which work as expected.I also found that the plug that connects to the parent unit was beginning to look a bit fragile in 2020 so I reinforced it with some Sugru and it's still working perfectly 2 years later.7 years use at this price can't be beaten!Update (25/10/20):==============Now on baby number 2 and it's still going strong and doing the business, but I have had to change the batteries in the parent unit.We used with child number 1 until she was about 3 1/2 I think put it in a draw and when we got it back out in January 2020 it's continued to work like a dream.An absolute bargain I'd highly recommend.Update (14/02/17):==============We've now had the baby monitor for over a year and it's still going strong. The battery still lasts well and everything is still as good as it always was. I'd still buy this again without hesitation. However, now we have a toddler I have some additional thoughts.When my daughter wakes up she will often sit and play with her toys... this is transmitted quite clearly. It's lovely to listen to her playing on her own.Once she wants to get up she'll stand in her cot, rattle the side and say "mummy" or "daddy" repeatedly until someone comes. That's ideal for this monitor, but as said in the original review it might be an issue if you're child doesn't call repeatedly.In 12 months we've had no issues of missing a call or the unit not working. It always connects to the baby unit very quickly.We've taken the unit away with us to family and to B&Bs, and the like, and even in larger houses it connects without issue and seems to have a huge range.Having a toddler I now think the talk back function would be more useful. It would be nice to tell her that we were on our way or that everything is OK. It's not a big deal though.For £20 I'm still delighted and highly recommend the VTech unit.Original Review (August 2016 - 6 months after purchase):==========================================My wife and I have been using the VTech BM1000 since the beginning of February. We bought it to replace a BT monitor that kept failing. We had 3 of the BT monitors in 3 months before we gave up because of what was evidently a design fault. I was initially a bit reticent of buying the VTech unit because of the mixed review and overall 3.5 star rating, but I'm glad I did.Positives***********The unit was super cheap for the type of product. I don't think there was another digital baby monitor at the same price point from a reputable company and with any good reliable reviews.The unit is super sensitive which is great and not what I expected given some of the negative reviews. The thing to be aware of here is that the first noise it picks up it doesn't transmit. This helps to stop false alarms and make sure that you actually need to respond, but it might not be ideal if you're planning on using it with a toddler who only says "mummy" once before being quiet again. It's great with a baby that will cry persistently once awake however. We have the baby unit across the room from the cot and it picks up our baby rolling over in her sleep and you can even hear her breathing. It also picks up the faint sound of our neighbours dog barking and transmits that if he's having a barking session. It's not loud enough to wake the baby but it still gets picked up and transmitted.The battery life is excellent. We have the parent unit plugged in whilst we're asleep, but it's used during the day and all evening on battery and we've not even got close to the end of the battery. The baby unit has to be plugged in at all times however.The belt clip is useful... more useful than you might think.The light up sound indicator is also useful when you either can't hear or want to have the volume down (for instance when watching a film).Negatives***********The sound quality isn't great. It's nowhere near as good as the BT was when it was working. However, you don't need great quality to hear a baby crying and it's good enough that when my wife is in with the baby I can hear every whispered word and understand them all.No talk back function. I'm not entirely sure that we really miss it. I don't ever remember a time when we had it and managed to talk the baby down using it or when it's calmed her down until one of us arrived.Overall I'd say this was a fantastic buy and would recommend it to anyone in the market for a baby monitor.

It does the job well and doesn’t have any static sound at all. Also it doesn’t pickup white noise if your kids likes to sleep with the noise on.The moment my kid moves it, picks up the sound and alerts the parent unit.Range and battery is ok for me and I have no issues in a 1800sq foot house. I normally charge parent unit in night and it works all day.Checks all boxes and I would recommend this if you are looking for a simple unit that alerts when kid wakes up.
