Summer Infant Complete Coverage Color Video Monitor Set with 7″ LCD Screen and 1.8″ Handheld Unit Review
I’m overall very happy with this monitor. I don’t know how we could have lived without the ability to see our baby. The monitor is very handy. There is a larger TV receiver, and a handheld device. The handheld device runs on a renewable battery that you charge when you plug it in. The infrared camera lets you see your baby sleeping even in pitch darkness. Sometimes I put him in the crib but go back to my bedroom to see him on the monitor and make sure he’s fallen asleep!
We have had some major reception/interference issues, but we do live in a tightly packed city and we have a lot of electronic equipment and a wireless network, 2 cellphones, game systems, etc. We find that the larger TV unit works better downstairs, so we use it there, and the handheld is in our bedroom. The interference can be loud enough to keep us awake, so sometimes we either drown it out with a sound machine (we can still hear baby noises), or turn it off and just listen for baby down the hall. So, you might ask why we bother? Because the video option allows us to see our baby in the dark, and know if he’s just crying out in his sleep, or actually awake and needing us. It’s also good to check if he’s still alive and kicking, something a lot of new parents worry about! We don’t have to walk into his room to check on that.
We are considering buying a second audio-only monitor with clearer reception. I would recommend you try this in your house and keep the receipt in case it doesn’t work for you. there are digital monitors with video – but they are much more expensive. This one is great if it works for you.
Oh and just a note – when you plug in the handheld adapter, note that you have to use the volume control to turn it on. it also will not charge unless it is turned on. We thought it was broken until we called their support line and found out that we had to turn it on first via the volumne control. The manual was not clear on that point.

Summer infant Complete Coverage Color Video Monitor Set w/7″ LCD Screen and 1.8″ Handheld Unit – S. Parsons –
Love the monitor!!!! Light weight, small, excellent screen size.
We leave the 7″ screen in our bedroom for night time viewing and audio. You will need to put some tape over speaker in back and over 1 1/2 in the front, because audio is very loud even on low. But the silk tape dampens the effect so we can sleep without hearing every little creak. But we hear him if he cries or asks for us.
The small handheld unit we use for nap time. It’s great, love the belt clip, audio/video excellent. Great portability. My husband can take it to our shop with no diminishing in signal, approx. 100 yards. all metal bldg.
We had a bulky black and white unit prior to this one and I wish I would have purchased this one first. We turn to camera towards the entire room during day while he playing and before it was hard to differentiate him with other objects in room!!! But not anymore! Camera angle excellent, more wide angle viewing than before!!!
A++ Purchase – R. korpi – USA
