I have baby monitor cameras all over my house and I love them. I'm a writer and work from home, but I have pets that roam the house and I like to keep an eye on them while I work. I also like to keep an eye on my front door and backyard. Yes, I could (and do) use traditional security cameras, but I'd like to see a quick long-distance view (day or night) without having to do anything. I have this Dockwell Bella Baby Monitor in a front window overlooking my front yard and the 5 inch monitor is right next to my computer so I keep an eye on it. I can see if the garbage cans fly away or if UPS is delivering a package. Baby monitors are ideal for this.
One of the things I like about this particular device is that it has a 5 inch screen (very large). No matter which brand you end up buying, I recommend the largest monitor you can find - so much easier on the eyes. Also, this Dockwell device has a very wide lens and you can easily and quickly swipe a room from the monitor. They can also listen and talk - the animals freak out when I tell them to keep "coming down" from multiple rooms lol. The night vision of this Bella unit is also excellent. Note, however, that if you shoot the camera through glass (like I did) the infrared will bounce off the glass at night, so you won't get a perfect view - although you can see some things (like car headlights in your driveway, etc.).
I own seven different brands of baby monitors and I would have to put this one at the top of the list. It's a little pricey, but the quality is good and it has a lot of features.

Great! No WiFi = NO HACKING! Big display. Easy setting. Safe and user-friendly. The audio feature is very helpful to let your voice through. Wide angle is great. I feel much safer with this device than others. The price is fair. You will definitely get your money's worth.

There are a few things I like about this video baby monitor. First, it works well for its intended purpose. I like that it comes with a screen; Some monitors require you to use your phone.
But where it really shines are the extras:
- You can talk to your baby.
- It's a night light!
- It plays lullabies.
- You can zoom in and out.
It's the bonus features that make it stand out.

I could say so much about this thing! First off, this is actually a really good security camera for the price. I have it in my living room for a variety of reasons. Watching baby cleaning as I have 3 floors, keeping an eye on a 4 year old who likes to sneak around stuff, animals and just safety when away. So before I get into the good, I have a bad. The app isn't total rubbish, but I wish moving the camera direction was a bit easier. Otherwise I have no problems with the app. I was able to share the camera device with my partner on their own account so we can both watch. But the method of rotating your camera in any direction is annoying. You need to swipe up, down, left, or right on the video feed, and that can sometimes be a bit tedious. Other than that one thing, I haven't had any setup issues or anything! Pretty simple process. Simple app format (except motion change). The night vision is actually pretty good and clear even when you zoom in a bit. Clarity when not using night vision is also surprisingly good for the price of this camera.

It's a great camera/video with good quality. I like how you can move the camera to capture the whole room. Good night vision mode. The quality is pretty good if you only want to see one room of your house to check on your animals. It's a good size and looks good, not bulky or an eyesore.

It was worth it. We use ours to keep track of kids' rabbits. Set up is a breeze.

Wow! They just keep making baby monitors better!
One of my favorite features is the 360 degree room view. The monitor has such a clear view and even great night vision.
It also has a feature where it plays lullabies. I think there are eight different ones.
There are some security features that are really nice. There is an audible alarm that lets me know if our little Carly moves. It has two-way audio so I can lull her back to sleep with just a few sweet whispers.
It also alerts me to the room temperature. Really nice for the cooler nights.
A really interesting feature is the feeding timer. It alerts me to their feeding time.
All in all it's the best monitor I've seen and I really enjoy the extra features.
* 900ft range with video and audio
* Easy to set up
* Monitor provides a clear, crisp image
* Night vision allows for nighttime monitoring of baby
* 2-way audio
* Monitor is portable with built-in 7-hour battery life
* Camera must be plugged in for power be

This camera is really worth its price compared to the other cameras I've bought before! It has great night vision, high image quality, and the camera can pan up and down so I can easily look around the room. It's a great indoor camera. The audio through the app is clear and the two way audio works well, my cat tries to find me every time I talk through the camera LOL. I can only recommend this camera!!

Overall great cameras. My family and I have a lot of fun with them. We like to talk on the phone app to troll each other. You can also pan the camera all the way around from the live view in the app to check the room. Just a great little camera to have fun with and have a little bit more security.
