Hello!
I thought I did the homework and bought a good baby monitor, however it turns out it was misadvertised - it didn't actually have the features it was supposed to have. I returned it and am back to square one looking for a decent monitor, please could you make any recommendations:
- needs to have a camera that is controlled remotely via parent unit, ie it can tilt and pan using buttons on the parent unit without the need to enter the nursery and do it manually
- decent quality video and audio, day and night modes, not too zoomed in and able to see baby's chest rising
- two way, ie allows to speak to baby
- works without WiFi (although an option to have an app and connect via WIFI would be helpful)
- screen doesn't go off after a short time, ie there's no need to press anything every minute or so to actually see what's going on with baby
I'd rather hear from people who actually use them now instead of relying on online descriptions which turns out aren't always accurate. Thank you in advance!
