I looked all over the web for a baby monitor with this feature set. I was all set to buy the Phillips as it was the only one that had DECT but then I came across this one.
Although it isn't clear from the description, I emailed BT and they confirmed that this does use DECT as well. In case you don't know DECT is a digital transmission (used for the best cordless phones), it is very clear and I am able to use it even though I and my neighbours have DECT handsets (no interfearence). The range is fantastic and the built in tempreature display and alarm which is very useful. The sensitivity is phenomenal and there is zero hiss, on full sensitivity I can even hear a clock ticking in the next room - fortunately it's adjustable to filter out unwanted noises.
Definately the best baby monitor available.

I have found this baby monitor to be really good. The basic design of the parent unit is more akin to a cordless phone as it sits in a cradle to charge, uses the same digital technology and has an intercom facility.
The clarity of the sound can't be faulted either and while I really only used the intercom feature to poke fun at my wife while she was in the child's room, the sound quality of her less than impressed response was crystal clear.
I have found a few scenarios where some specific features have come in useful. (apart from the intercom). The sensitivity of the child unit can be adjusted to remove background noise in the room, particularly useful in summer if you have a fan going in the child's room.
The battery backup in the child unit is useful for power outages as we've discovered, but also if you're visiting somewhere and there isn't a mains point handy.
While the temperature alarm is really useful in the winter time (and to a certain extent, the rest of the year), be mindful of the temperature alarm settings in the summer. There's nothing more annoying than the temperature alarm going off when there's nothing you can do about it. (Unless you believe the x-men are real and Storm is your next door neighbour).
Until recently I hadn't really used the lullaby feature, but now our son is almost two, he thinks it's his own personal radio. Not normally a feature I'd look out for.
All in all, it's a pretty decent little pack. I'd recommend it to anyone.

This is our second monitor. I wish I have discovered it earlier. Our first one was a Tomy Digital. The Tomy Digital was very good when we first bought it but after a while started getting a lot of interference. I had enough and decided to look for another one and found this. Excellent monitor. Like the remote features and ability to change sensitivity etc from remote. It is very quiet with no interference and pick up all relevant sound. Best feature is the intercom. I can now talk to my son over the monitor to tell him to go back to bed if he wakes up at night and he does!!! Definitely recommend it.

Good monitor but died long before I would have liked
I was always happy with this monitor when I used it with my son. I used it for about a year and had no problems. Read more

Best available
I have been using this monitor for about a year. Although I wouldn't have looked for the remote activated lullaby feature, it has been invaluable. Read more

Poor long term reliability and user support
We have had 2 of these. The first one broke after 13 mths. All appeared as if it was working and linked but no sound coming out. BT refused to repair it and said tough luck. Read more

Recommended monitor
I agree with the comments about poor battery life. Apparently the batteries should last about 10 hours. I spoke to BT and they said I probably have a faulty model. Read more
