Without getting too technical in the digital versus analog sound argument, let's just say that the digital Graco Baby iMonitor utilizes newer technology for sound clarity and immense range. They claim 2,000 feet, and it worked fine from the backyard to the inside of the house. It also has an out-of-range alarm if that should ever happen. The first thing you notice is the construction of the receiver. It is tough, sturdy, and portable--it clips on to your belt and is small enough to go almost unnoticed. The sound meter is easily read and comes with a rechargeable battery and docking station. The base unit is fairly inconspicuous, and it has a battery backup if ever the power should go out (three AAA batteries not included). --Scott Teal

This review is from: Graco Digital iMonitor Baby Monitor (Baby Product)
I have been through several monitors and I will say this one is the closest to perfect. I'll start with the positives first. It has a recharging base and rechargable batteries, which is supper nice. The batteries only last about 4 hours when fully charged, enough for a nap, but that was perfect enough for me. The channels are extremely clear, the best I have ever heard. Very little, if any, interference. Now the the negatives. The thing peeps everytime it losses the signal. That is good if you are awake but when you are sleeping (which is hard to do with a baby), the peeping wakes you up! Who thought of that! I would prefer and option to turn that peep off at night. Everyone knows how much sleep you get with a baby and the monitor cuts into that time too. For that reason alone, I gave the monitor an average mark. Typically, it does re-establish the signal and you don't have to do anything (except wake up, hear the peep and try and go back to sleep). While the monitor picks up clear sounds, it doesn't pick them up very loudly. You really need to crack the monitor up which is fine until the baby screams and it is really super loud. The Safety First monitor I had before handled the sound load a little better. Overall, if you are buying a monitor, this one is the best available. I have been through 6 of them b/c I am picky.

Digital = Bad,

This review is from: Graco Digital iMonitor Baby Monitor (Baby Product)
To understand why I hate this monitor, you have to understand how digital works. With digital, the signal quality is perfectly clear until the signal reaches a certain level of weakness, at which point you receive no signal at all. Unfortunately, the signal often gets too weak at a distance of only 25 feet. We sleep in the room adjacent to our baby's room, and the signal still cuts out an average of once every hour, lasting for several minutes at a time. When the signal is insufficient, the receiver beeps loudly and repeatedly. So, we are awakened about once an hour to an angry baby monitor. As new parents, we are already sleep-deprived, and we feel like this monitor hurts more than it helps.
Also, after six months, the life of the battery after being fully charged has dropped to less than two minutes before it dies. Thus, we cannot move this receiver from room to room without transporting the charging station and plugging it in wherever we go. It might as well have no battery at all. My advice: get an analog (non-digital) baby monitor with a reputation for good batteries. Your signal will be slightly fuzzier, but you won't experience the signal "total shut-down" that we have experienced with this monitor.

This review is from: Graco Digital iMonitor Baby Monitor (Baby Product)
I think this monitor is wonderful. I rarely write reviews about anything, but I am very happy with this product. It is very clear and has none of the hissing/crackling that the non-digital monitors did. I read the first review that is posted and I think you can correct the problem with the monitor beeping when the charge is low. If you leave the charger in your bedroom, the monitor can be on and re-charge overnight. This charges it enough for during the day when you want to take it with you around the house. I am able to set the volume very low at night and still hear plenty. The lights are a little bright, but not a major consideration when the sound is so clear.
