Description
You want reassurance that baby is resting safe and sound. Fortunately, our Direct Connect Digital Monitor operates on a 900 MHz frequency, so you can clearly hear even the quietest whimper, without fear of interference from your phone, wireless network or home electronics. What’s more, our exclusive Graco vibration notification technology allows you to feel baby’s call, should you be unable to hear it for whatever reason. With its extended 2,000 ft range, you’ll have plenty of room to roam. And if baby needs some reassuring words, the talk back feature allows you to offer them from wherever you may be.

Terrible Range
November 27, 2016
This monitor seemed to work better when it was new but as time goes on it seems to have more and more problems. The range is a far cry from 2000 feet like site says.

Lasted 4 years.

Bought this monitor for our first son 4 years ago. It never gave me any problems. Also was using it for our second son, until yesterday, after 4 years with this thing it finally broke! It was a good long run and I have no idea why there are so many negative comments, I never had a problem with it.

Piece of junk
October 8, 2015
After just reading all of the other reviews all I can say is I agree with them. This monitor is such a piece of junk. I can rely on opening my window and hearing my baby cry more than I can depend on this working. Take it off the market already and sell something that works!!

Love it, it has all I need!!
September 29, 2015
I have this monitor for 2 1/2 years. It is still working !!! Sound is great (I can always hear my baby breath), the range is fantastic (I can walk across the street to say hello to my neighbor or do yard work while my little one is sleeping and still hear every sound in the nursery). Plus it shows temperature which is so important. I love this product!

Great monitor
September 17, 2015
We got this monitor when we had our daughter in 2011 and it worked perfect until recently when it stopped holding a charge. I loved that it had a good range and I could take the receiver with me to take the dog out while she was sleeping. Over all this is a great monitor and I'd recommend it to anyone.

Love this monitor
July 22, 2015
We bought this monitor 2 years ago when we had our son, and now we needed another for the next baby and specifically looked for this one. Our favorite features are the thermometer since it is hard to control the temperature in our upstairs, and the ability to talk to the child. This monitor has everything you need to keep attention on your kid without the distraction of a video making you want to check every little noise you hear.

Works great!
April 30, 2015
We have had our monitor for about 1 1/2 years now and have nothing to complain about. I was very impressed with the sensitivity of the monitor. Even on the other side of the room, it can pick up the smallest peeps and grunts. The one downside is that the parent's unit really doesn't have that much battery life. You really have to make sure that you plug it in. It does start beeping really loudly so you don't run the risk of the monitor just shutting down on you.

Love the battery feature
March 27, 2015
We love to go camping, and this monitor is perfect for it! I love that I can hear my sleeping baby when I'm at the campfire and don't have to keep getting up to listen at the tent, this monitor is perfect for camping because of it's optional battery operated feature. Plus it amazing that it shows the temperature! Such a useful feature! My husband and I are really happy with this monitor!

Only occasionally works
June 3, 2014
I was given this at my baby shower. at first it worked great. Now the parent unit hardly ever receives signal from the child unit. And at times it lets out this very loud static sound and beeping that can only be stopped by pulling the battery out. Not great when baby is sleeping since it is so loud, even my neighbors have complained.

Worse Monitor Ever

If I could give this monitor a 0 I would. It constantly loses its signal. It is very unreliable and a waste of money. I am surprised it is still on the market. What a disappointment.

Poor Quality
September 18, 2013
OI bought this monitor for my first child. We did not use it often and it worked ok except dropping the signal and needing to be reset. Two years later with baby #2, the parent units won't hold a charge and may not even work - even when plugged in. I was hoping for something more reliable from Graco.

Great features but those are basically useless when it loses signal all the time.  Doesn't matter how far from the base.

Plug for charger broke on box
April 26, 2013
Love these but due to using it alot on and off the charger the charger part fell back into the box and now you can't charge it anymore. Only had it for alittle over a year. Kinda disappointed. If it wasn't for that I'd still be recommending this to friends and family.

So upset with this purchase
March 26, 2013
I bought this monitor because it was recommended by a friend. I am regretting it very much. I have found that I can not use it for more than half an hour at a time, because it begins to beep stating low battery. The parent unit is plugged in constantly, so that is impossible! I am so angry for having purchased this useless thing, because now I have to spend even more money to get a monitor that actually works.

Monitor constantly looses connection! My poor lil guy is on the other side of the house and several times now I have woken to him screaming from across the house. It will start beeping for no reason at all. I simply pick it up and put it back down and it stops. Ridiculous!! Not happy at all!

A Good Purchase
January 23, 2013
The digital monitor is working very well. Improvement should be made on the base of the unit that has the microphone. Currently the unit is so thin that it fall on it's side very easily.

Good Monitor for the price
January 18, 2013
This monitor is a good value for the price. We have had issues with it losing signal off and on, but we think it is more an issue of our house and not the monitor. We love the intercom feature as well as the night light on top. I also really like the temperture readout on the parent monitor.

The speaker is lousy. I can be in a silent room, next to the baby, and the only way to hear the baby cry is if I hold the speaker against my ear. If this didn't have the vibrate function it would be entirely useless.

Waste of time and money
April 15, 2012
This monitor is the worst! It will stop working in the middle of the night! Many times I have woken up to hear my child screaming from across the hall, and when I look at the monitor it is on but just not working. The battery life on it is also disappointing.

DO NOT BUY
March 14, 2012
Words cannot express how much I hate this monitor. It constantly cuts on and off with a loud beep even when I'm just in the next room. The beeping all night makes me want to throw the thing. If it's on vibrate and my daughter cries, it shuts off with the first "Waa". I don't like that it's not wireless either. I have to plug it in everywhere I go in the house. I'm only holding on to this until I can find a new one. Then I'm kicking this thing out of my window.

Terrible purchase... So disappointed
December 28, 2011
This monitor is horrible. It loses signal or just stops working and goes silent without notifying you like it's supposed to. I have now found my child screaming in his crib 2 times with no noise from the monitor. I figured it was a fluke the first time, but obviously not. There is no point in buying a monitor that can't function to do the basic thing it's supposed to. The interference static is also bad and the range is nowhere near what it claims. I am beyond disappointed. We have liked all of our other Graco products, but after this I will never buy another one.

Very disapointing
October 6, 2011
I purchased this product because it seemed to be the best value. That is, it has the most features for the money. However, after using it for a few weeks, I wished I had gotten a different one. This moniter stops working from time to time. The receiver loses its signal for no reason and the system needs to be reset in order to start working again. Several times I've woken in the middle of the night to a very upset baby, with no idea how long she had been crying. The extra features are great, but if this monitor doen't serve it's basic purpose, what good is it?

Don't waste your time!
September 14, 2011
This monitor works, sometimes. I have had 2 already (thinking the first was just a "lemon" because it really couldn't be that bad). I have woke up to a screaming baby because my monitor stopped working, it is constantly fuzzy, sometimes it just won't work at all and it maybe, just maybe will work in about half the range it is supposed to.

Not the quality we expected
September 4, 2011
We bought this monitor before the birth of our 3rd child and it was quite a disappointment. Usually with monitors the light indicator showing noise is on the front because if you're laying in bed you can look over and see what's going on. On this monitor it's on the top and unless you have the monitor lower than you (looking right on top of it) you can't see the indicator. Also, we liked the idea of long range use but that didn't happen either. It would be nice to be able to take it into the front yard so I could watch my other children play while the baby is asleep, however, the monitor loses contact with the base constantly. I actually have to go up to the baby's room, turn the base off and back on to re-establish the connection. This is especially frustrating at night when I toss and turn wondering if once I fall asleep the monitor will stop connecting and I won't hear my child. We ended up using a different monitor, one we used with my son, that's over 2 years old but still works perfectly. Not a good purchase.

I wish I didn't purchase this
August 3, 2011
The third day of using this product the nursery unit stopped submitting sound to the parental unit. After awhile of pushing buttons, we found if you unplugged the nursery unit from the wall the unit must reset itself. This must be done every third day to stop this. Wish I would have found this out in the middle of the night when the unit decided to shut itself off. Also the parental unit beeps for no reason, occasionally with no pattern to it after a few hours of use. I understand that it beeps when it's low on battery or out of range. Our room is fifteen feet away from our nursery so there is no way it's out of range. Also we leave the unit always plugged in so there is no way it's low on battery. I wish I would have read some of these reviews before we purchased this item. I was hoping for a better monitor with the additional money we spent on this product. I wish I would have saved the receipt, I would have returned this item for a different monitor. Very disappointed in this product.

Does not work well
July 30, 2011
This monitor does not work well at all. The a/v plug that goes into the monitor does not line up or fit in properly. The monitor often loses reception and starts beeping, or just simply doesn't get reception at all. My room is not far from my daughters, and I often hear her crying down the hallway at night, and the monitor is not making a sound at all, and I don't know how long she was crying. Very upsetting. I would not recommend, not worth the money

Great, except when it goes silent
June 17, 2011
I bought this monitor around Christmas 2010 after the cheap one I was given as a gift shorted out. I love this monitor for the most part. I love knowing the temp in the baby's room and the sound is excellent, but periodically it cuts out during the middle of the night. The temp is still visible, and the display shows that it is working, but there is absolutely no sound coming through the monitor. If it were not for this one problem, I couldn't ask for a better monitor.

Not the best...
May 9, 2011
I loved this monitor for the first few months. For the past week, it's started to stop working in the middle of the night. The parent unit just goes silent. Our bedroom is next to the baby's room, so it shouldn't have too much interference! Once you hit the channel button, it seems to work again, but the channel button is on the base that goes in the baby's room, not the parent's which seems pointless. If the channel button was on the parent unit I would have 0 complaints. I love being able to know temperature of the baby's room and I like how you can turn the volume loud or pretty soft.

Better than expected
November 25, 2010
I have read the complaints about the range of this unit, and I was a bit worried but I figured I would give it a shot. Anyone who really expected a walkie-talkie to get 2000 feet of reception inside a house has high hopes anyway. The range on this works just fine for me. The babies room is upstairs, and I get great reception when I am downstairs, in the yard, or in the bedroom. No you probably won't get the 2000 feet, but you should get plenty of range unless you have a lot of interference, and if so, change channels. The features of this unit works well too. The temperature monitor is quite handy, as well as the ability to speak to the other unit. The price of the unit seems a bit steep, and since this is the only monitor that I have bought, I have nothing to compare it to quality wise, only personnel experience. The one bad thing that I have found with my unit so far is that the parent unit will cut out at random. I will have it sitting on the couch beside me and it will just go completely silent. Usually it will come back on after a few seconds but it has taken it up to a minute a couple times to come back on. I have not dropped the unit or anything, so I know that is not the problem, and I am not moving it when it cuts out so it is some problem with the parent unit itself.

Terrible
November 19, 2010
I purchased this monitor because it claimed to have the best range, 2000', of all the other available monitors. There is less then 60 feet between our master bedroom and the baby's room and the monitor can't get a signal. I'm very disappointed. The monitor has lots of great features, but if it can't get signal they have no value.

pretty good
November 18, 2010
My husband and I wanted a monitor that would give us the temperature in our nursery. So far, it has been very accurate. The sound quality of the monitor is pretty good, and I like how it will vibrate to notify you. You can also talk to your baby...almost like a intercom. Overall, I really like the unit.
