It's been very well engineered:
* Great range. It works everywhere in a 2 story 1800 sq ft house, and in the backyard which is opposite the bedroom it's in.
* Great battery life. I've never had it run low, let alone run out of juice. Though, I do charge it every night.
* Lots of features (thermometer, talk back, night light, music)
Now, it might just be that the other audio-only monitors I've tried (especially you VTech) are garbage. But this one is worth the money. Support a good product. Support good engineering. Buy this one.
I'll update this review if I find any flaws.
Downchecked only because of frustration trying to find a manual online. The monitor comes with a sketchy little start-up flyer that left me with questions. I eventually figured things out by trial and error, no thanks at all to Philips.
Update: Our baby unit stopped sending audio to the parent unit. Just like that (it hadn't been dropped or anything). The page function still works, and talk from parent to baby works, just no sound from the baby unit (lights don't go on, either). Still under warranty, I called Philips hoping there was some sort of reset that would fix it (after trying everything I could think of with no luck). They decided it was defective and are sending me a new unit. I'm very impressed with customer service on this product, and will not lower my rating even though it failed after only four months. Let's hope the replacement lasts longer.
The big plus for us is the range in our long house. We had another wireless monitor that would connect but then drop signal in the middle of the night. We were already tired, didn't need the monitor waking us up as well. The Philips monitor connects and doesn't drop.
The only downside is the figuring out the plugs. There is a plug for both the base station and the handset. They look very similar, but the instructions were a little confusing and I plugged them in the wrong one. That didn't work. If look closely on near the power port on the base station/handset, it will tell you correct amps for that device. Then look at the amps output on the power bricks.
