I hate my baby moniter...

in September 2011 Moms

So I purchased a low end baby moniter (Summer Infant dual something or other from Buy Buy Baby) and the thing is junk. One handheld unit wont charge, and the other makes angry noises through the night for no reason.

I need something super basic...we live in a townhome & DD room is across the hall from ours. If I open both doors I can see right into her room from my bed (not the crib though).

Any suggestions?

    We have the Sony BabyCall monitor and really like it.  About $40 from Target and BRU.

    Ditto this.  It's been great for us.  Sometimes a little interference when you set the receiver down too close to a phone or alarm clock or anything else electronic, but moving it an inch or so always fixes it.

    Contact the Company and complain about it. We had to do that with our Graco monitor. We actually bought two thinking the first one was just defective....but we liked the concept of it (the reason we bought the second one) and it didnt work either. Toys R Us wouldnt take them back so I contacted Graco. We received a shipping label in the mail within 5 days and a full refund check within 10 days of mailing the products back. Worth a shot. We now have a Sony something and it seems to work pretty good.

    We got a cheap, basic one from Ikea for $20. We also have a video Summer Infant one that we got for $100, but we use the Ikea one for traveling and for when she naps in our basement. In some ways the Ikea one is better than the video one.

    Is it just a regular monitor, or a video monitor? If it's not a video monitor and your rooms are that close, you might be able to get away with just leaving both your doors open. If she needs you, you'll know it. We're on opposite sides of the house, but honestly when he cries at night, I'd hear it even if we didn't have the monitor. I just like the video! GL :)
