This monitor turns itself off without warning - and it's not down to a dead battery. So, you're sitting there with a silent monitor thinking that all is well with your little one - but it's not! We thought that perhaps it goes on standby until baby makes a noise but when we put it to the test, this proved not to be the case. We stood outside the baby's room with the parent unit in hand, she was moaning and monitor was silent. We worked out that you have to press the talkback button to wake the monitor up!!! What's the point in that!?!? Completely useless!!
Also, the unit that you leave with the baby doesn't display the temperature which would be useful.
