My house is small & I did use one for a while but only because I was given it. I was not intending on buying one as I didn't believe I needed it.

Honestly the static used to drive me nuts. It used to make me listen for breathing & then when I couldn't hear it I'd panic & run to the bubs room and he'd always be fine - just not great reception.

I started to sleep wonderfully well the night I switched it off.
