This monitor has been absolutely brilliant and really gives you that extra piece of mind with the movement sensor. It has a brilliant feature where it mainly stays quiet until there is a noise that triggers it to play sound, I find this a peaceful and safe way to keep a watchful ear out for your baby. Is great value for money - Strengths:

This item has been a godsend as we had to move our little one I.ln to her cut earlier than expected but knowing the alarm will sound if no movement is detected is a huge relief. I didn’t want to have one with a camera as I felt it would be too much of a distraction. This does the job for us is simple to use can use it round the house too just for sound in nap time is fantastic - Strengths:

I love this product one of my twins is a completely silent sleep so he pad gives complete peace of mind it's easy to set up and add addition mats and sensors. Lots if function so you can turn down sensitivity and even remove the pad if required.Read more
The only down side I find is that if you put in sleep mode the monitor comes on with the sound but does not give you an image but this may be a plus for some.

I brought this for the bargain price of £55 from smyths before my baby was born. We have used it with the sensor pad since birth and it has been used in our moses basket, crib and now her cot.
I think that you can use the monitor without the sensor pad as i know some do not allow this. It has a qood quality sounds and we have no issues. - Strengths:

After c section I had to stay in a hospital for 5 days . At night I was setting the alarms on my phone for every 20-30 mins to check my baby is all right so I slept maybe 2 hours in 24 hours time. When we finally came back to home and our angelcare was already installed I could finally have a longer sleep. We had 2 false alarms so far ( my baby is 6 months right know ) . Without this product my life would be full of stress and sleepless nights definitely. - Weaknesses:

I love this product and will be using it again with my second child.
The baby needs to be placed over the mat for it to work and it is really sensitive. You can use the monitor without the pressure mat also so it was still good value for money. Great for putting my mind at ease and would definitely recommend. - Strengths:

I used this every night and nap time from birth to 6 months. I only used the movement alarm, and it did go off a couple of times. The alarm was loud enough to wake me and my husband up, it only went off when our son had rolled off the sensor pad (which wasn't very often).Read more
When we moved him into a cot bed the sensor pad no longer worked, I think its because the mattress is too heavy.
I will continue to use the monitor for sound when my son goes into his own room. - Strengths:

This is by far the best baby monitor on the market it gives you total peace of mind that baby is okay. The sensor pad let's you know baby is breathing and gives a sharp warning beep to stir baby into breathing and then goes off rapidly if she stops for too long. Excellent product highly recommend to anyone. - Strengths:

This product gave us such a peace of mind. Both of our children would only sleep on their stomachs and not their backs. Having this monitor allowed us to get some sleep, knowing they are safe. Obviously we continued to check on their safety, but this helped. - Strengths:

These are brilliant would defo recommend these they don't only do sound they flash to indicate movement and the LCD display tells temp of room. If no movement is detected after a few secs it sounds an alarm, these have helped with my anxiety especially putting my child in own room. -

Have used this monitor for 3 years and will continue to use it with my new arrival. The pad is fab, monitor beeps quietly to let you know baby is breathing ok. Took the pad off when my daughter turned one and monitor still works great. Has temperature monitor so can check it’s not too hot or cold in her room. - Strengths:

With my first child I was getting up every 5 minutes to check if she were still breathing, so I looked into breathing monitors. Then with my second child I got one before she arrived. I decided on this one as I know hospitals use them and the reviews were fantastic. I tested it first by laying s bag of sugar over it and it did go off. The noise is quite loud and it does come through the monitor a well as in the room itself. You can change the sensitivity on the mat too, too suit your needs. The parent unit it’s self is brilliant too, again it’s also very sensitive to noise! The only down side is the wires but I suppose the can’t really help that. We’ve also had to change the channel a few times as it has picked up other people talking, but their are 3 different channels to choose from so it’s not a massive issue! I would suggest anyone that is nervous to get one I can now happily go to sleep knowing my little girl is okay.Read more - Strengths:

When you're pregnant most of us mommies will see at least one post on Facebook, one article, A video online or a leaflet from the midwife about safe sleeping and how to reduce the risks of SIDS and cot death. I suffer from anxiety and the thought of this happening made me feel sick to the extent I had trouble sleeping eben before my eldest was born just researching ways to prevent it happening. This is when I came across this product and realised it was exactly what I needed to try and relieve the anxiety. It not only relieved the anxiety but it meant I was not consistently staring at my little girls chest in fear of her not breathing and I could get some sleep! Just be warned though if you take baby out of the cot without turning off the monitor after 20 seconds the monitor will start beeping to alert there are no breathing patterns so just a heads up to not get the fear of your life when doing them bedtime feeds!?Read more - Strengths:

This is an excellent monitor it gives you complete reassurance that your baby is safe whilst in there crib. The base that goes under the mattress is very secure. I used this product for 4 years as my daughter suffers from seizures and it helped detect them every time. - Strengths:
