1.0 out of 5 stars Buy another brand January 28, 2012

By Zach

We purchased the Summer Infant "Night and Day" handheld monitor when our baby was born (I'll get around to how this relates to the "Secure Sight" system you're expecting to read about). Around the 8 month mark the sound started to "go" ... we'd see the 'red' but wouldn't hear anything. Since the monitor was less than 1 year old I contacted Summer Infant customer support, and was told that if I could prove my handheld was purchased less than 1 year ago they would replace it with the "Secure Sight" handheld monitor. (for some reason they wouldn't send a new "Night and Day", and FYI: save your receipt!). Before agreeing to the trade I checked it out and saw that the Secure Sight unit itself was/is more streamlined than the "Night and Day" model, but noticed the price was a bit less. Giving them the benefit of the doubt, I agreed to the swap. We set it up and I couldn't be more disappointed. The picture isn't nearly as sharp as the "Night and Day", it's a step above poor and I can barely distinguish my baby from the crib mattress. With the Night and Day I could actually see his breathing if I wanted to - with the Secure Sight it's more like looking at a fuzzy shape of what's most likely my baby.
Second, the power cord is very short compared to the "Night and Day" and we have to use an extension cord to make it to the outlet (we didn't need an extension cord with the "Night and Day"). Recommendation: pay the extra $30 for the "Night and Day" if you're considering either of these, or even better... save yourself the trouble altogether by avoiding them both. I've never written a product review before this one, but sincerely hope it helps a few folks with their decision.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great... until you drop it one time. June 2, 2012

By Anne

With a little one, you can imagine it's not hard to accidentally drop your monitor. Ours fell from about 36 inches off the ground (from our night stand). The plug end broke off into the monitor, which we cannot get out. There are only two screws on the back and it doesn't seem like you can "operate" on it yourself to get the end of the plug out. (We are afraid to open it.) So, we now have a broken monitor (AND charging cord), which Summer Infant does not sell separately. Looks like we're completely out of luck since we got this as a shower gift and have no proof of purchase for their 12 month window (plus the manufacture date is beyond that AND the shower was well before our baby's birth date - making it way past 12 months, despite less than that in terms of usage time). We really did like it - good reception, great picture, good distance for receiver. A terrible flaw in that for a baby item, it is not very durable! We will be forced to replace this with another brand - it's not worth the risk of this happening again.

UPDATE: We called Summer Infant and they had us send it back to them. (Should have done this the second it broke!) They replaced it VERY quickly and we are happy again. For the record, we bought another one - the 3.5" Motorola monitor. By comparison, the picture on the Motorola is terrible! Our Summer Infant monitor is far superior in terms of picture as well as lack of interference. Had I realized ALL of this, I would have bought another Summer Infant. Too late now, but maybe you can learn from our mistakes!

4.0 out of 5 stars Works well June 11, 2011

By Preemiemommie

We bought this monitor when we brought our preemie daughter home from the hospital so we could visual see her oxygen and heart rate monitor. The video is very clear, and works wonderfully at night. The sound is exceptionally clear. We have used the Graco digital with our first son and went thru three of them from the sound going out and battery dying. Very impressed at how well the unit transmits, especially since we live in an apartment. No interference at all. THe only issue we have had is that after 4 nights the LED light on the reciever died and you could not see the image hardly at all. Summer replaced it and we've had no issues further. I would highly recommend this product.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed! May 8, 2012

By TargetCustomer

I bought this product when I had my 3rd baby bc my audio only monitor would only work when on the charger and decided to upgrade to a video monitor. Even with the mixed reviews I felt this would be the best choice for the money.
I was pleased at first but quickly realized that I could not use the monitor in the backyard bc it was out of range. Then the power button started sticking and then finally after 18 months the entire monitor stopped working all together.
I can't afford to buy a new video monitor and sure wish my investment would have lasted longer than 18 months. Now I have a camera that is useless!

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT monitor! March 3, 2012

By J Gold III

We have the Slim and Secure, so a slightly older model, but same idea and manufacturer. It is the best $150 or so that we spent on anything baby-related. I don't know how many times I have dropped it and spilled things on it, and after two years of use and abuse it is still going strong. We brought it to our family reunion only to discover that three other families had the same monitor, and the same good feelings about it. If you have the funds, go video monitor over just sound any day, because babies make a lot of noise and the video is essential to know exactly what is going on. For instance, our daughter was crying it out one night - probably six or seven months? - and my husband glanced at the monitor and said ohmygod and took off up the stairs like the house was on fire - she had tangled the blanket around her head and may have been in serious trouble if he hadn't seen that. With just a sound monitor, we probably would have said oh, she's just crying herself to sleep, no big deal, and would have in turn thought nothing of it when she stopped crying - and that night, it could very well have been that she stopped crying because she had smothered herself! So a video monitor (along with, of course, avoiding blankets at all until they're a year old), can literally be a lifesaver. And, we've propped the video end, which doesn't appear to have changed with the different models at all, up all sorts of ways when traveling. Right now, it's tucked behind a poster that's framed on the wall in her bedroom, which is nice because she can't get to it to yank on it. She'd been doing that when it was over her crib.... I've also perched it on those metal tree branch things you use to hang necklaces on, kind of tied it up with gauze curtains at a beach house, and of course, set it on dressers and just hung it on a screw on the wall. So that's pretty flexible too. It's just the best, and we're so happy with it, and can probably thank it for our daughter making it past one without any SIDS events. Read more ›
