Hi there,
For those who have been using their baby monitors for a while perhaps you can provide advice on which features are important to have.
Specifically I'm wondering about a) the motion pad (to tell if they're breathing). Do you have trouble with false positives? Was it hard to setup? Do you find this a feature that's really helpful or does it cause more worry? Seems this is only possible with the lower audio-quality monitors so to get this feature we'd likely have more interference.
b) video - for those who have video do you like this feature or find it too much. Also anyone out there with the type that works with iphone or ipad devises (next step ip or drop cam echo) and if so how do you like the extra features and improved video quality?
c) multiple parental units - seems like a good idea so you don't have to move it with you everywhere but not all come with them so for those without a second one how aggravating do you find it?
Based on consumer reports they're saying the best audio one is the Philips Avent DECT SCD510 and Video is the dropcam echo. Anyone with these and if so do you like them?
Thanks!
