We have an AngelCare monitor that we got when DS was born. We don't use the sensor pad, but we still use the baby and parent unit at night when DS is sleeping because his room is the other end of the house. We always hear a bit of static though and turn it down low enough that we can't hear the static but can still hear if he wakes up upset. We have major issues with mobile phone chargers though. If there is a mobile phone charger plugged into the power (the actual phone doesn't even need to be on the charger) in the same rtoom as the parent unit it creates major static on the parent unit. Of course hubby likes to charge his phone overnight in our bedroom...
We got an Oricom SC700 when DD2 was born. I wish I had got one with the first baby! I LOVE IT! I has the little camera and I can see her when she is sleeping. I like being able to see where on the bed she is. Plus, with her crawling now I like that I can watch to make sure she doesn't crawl from her cot mattress, to my bed and then to the floor (which is highly unlikely as her sleeping bag is always tucked tightly to the end of her bed and she can't pull it out lol). You can also turn on lullaby music from the parent unit with plays through the camera unit next to her. t puts her back to sleep really well! It also has a noise activation feature you can turn on, so my video screen turns on whenever she makes noise in the room. I have it sensitive enough that the screen turns on even when she just turns her head.
Plus, I figure it means I can spy on the kids during the night when the are older yeah? Lol.
