What You Should Consider When Shopping For Baby Monitors

By Davis Vanostberg


There are so many things parents need to buy when they want to keep their children safe--just one of those things is a baby monitor. These are electronic monitors that help you stay informed of whether or not your baby has any problems when you aren't able to be in the room with him (or her). To help you pick out the monitor that is the best and the most reliable, keep reading this article.

The Philips AVENT Basic Baby Monitor is great because it has DECT technology which lets you set the volume to the setting you enjoy the most. For instance, a quiet room requires a lower volume than a room in which a television or stereo is playing. The sound quality on this specific monitor is both sensitive and clear so you are going to be able to hear and pick up all the sounds that your baby makes, no matter how soft. Another great feature offered is the Talk Back feature; it lets you use the unit to talk to your baby and soothe her. It's quite helpful for calming your baby down without your having to actually go to the room. The DECT frequency band is set up to choose the best channel at any given time to prevent any interference from other devices in the area.

If you want to pick up even the tiniest sounds from your baby, the Graco Secure Coverage Digital Monitor is great--it operates on a 900 MHz frequency. The range is also quite large--as much as two thousand feet. This makes it a great choice for people who live in big homes or even for those with more than one home on their property. It has an alarm that alerts you when there is a low battery so that you'll know to charge the unit. It even has a belt clip to make it easier for parents to monitor their babies while keeping their hands free to do other things.

There are lots of things to keep in mind when you're figuring out which baby monitor to buy. One of those factors is frequency, it is what determines how strong your unit's signal is and it's easy to interrupt it with other devices (like cell phones). Units that have 49 MHz frequencies, for instance, don't cost as much money as the 900 MHz frequency monitors but they lack the reliability these more expensive monitors offer. It is also important to consider how powerful the receiver and transmitter are. In terms of portability battery-powered monitors are good but they need constant recharging or regular new batteries.

Baby monitors are vital to the security of your baby as well as vital to your own pace of mind. We've shared some brands you should consider as well as the other factors that are important when you are doing your shopping. First make sure you know which features are really important to you and then figure out which brand matters the most and gives you what you want and what you need.
