Reviews of video monitors (versus just plain auddio) are generally not good, but both Jeff and I figured we would give it a shot. At least we will set it up and play around with it to see how it works. We have plenty of time to exchange it and get a different type as we wont even be using the babies room for a couple of months. We do want to make sure that when we do need it that we have one that we feel is pretty reliable.
We decided on the Summer Infant "Baby's Quiet Sounds Day and Night Color Flat Screen Video Monitor". Since all of the reviews vary we couldnt go by them a whole lot, so decided just to go on the features we like and hope it all works out. A lot of the video monitors come with really tiny screens, which are likely hard to see (especially in the middle of the night if you wear glasses!). The one we chose has a 7" LCD flat screen monitor and was pretty much our deciding factor. We will test it out over the next few weeks to see how it works!
