BT Digital Baby Monitor Reviews And Best Prices

Having previously used a sturdy & reliable Philips AVENT SCD535 DECT Baby Monitor and having been given the BT version, I wasn’t expecting much as I wouldn’t associate BT with Baby Monitors’ and expected the functions and features to be a bit gimmicky.

I couldn’t have been more wrong.

The BT version did everything the Philips did, and more and all while looking more child’s room friendly, and not as much like a piece of medical equipment.

I haven’t been able to fault it and it has been given a thorough testing, as my partner loves all things tech and wanted to see exactly what it could do.

In short, it monitors audio & temperature, providing information back to an excellent parent unit that has all the buttons in sensible positions, a wipeable keypad surface, built in torch, the ability to let your child hear your voice via the handset, a timer for things like feeding times, a mute button, audible or visual alerts, lullaby feature that includes the ability to play music from an MP3 player (3.5mm jack lead included, a nice touch) and the piece de resistance is a light show for your little one, again controllable from the parent handset. The light show can be suitably angled to shine on a nearby wall, or a ceiling.

Included is a travel bag, well written instructions, an 0800 helpline if you get stuck with any of the features & rechargeable batteries for the parent unit .. you really can’t go wrong.

If you want a fully featured baby monitor, I would say buy this one. I can’t recommend it highly enough

We have been using BT baby monitors since our first child was born back in 2004 and have come to rely upon the piece of mind they provide. When this new BT monitor became available we wanted to find out how the technology has progressed since that time.

Beautiful bright colours make this BT monitor really stand out. Sound over this BT monitor is clear and both sides keeps contacted with each other at all times. There is of course a button which allows parents to speak to their child, which both reassures a child and sometimes helps them to go back to sleep.

Sound is a little lower than the older one, but not really enough to worry about. The parent unit has a torch which means you can have localised light without the need to put larger lights on – very important when trying to find something at night and not wanting to wake your child up too much.

The light show is great and displays planets and stars on the ceiling which keeps the kids entertained for ages – lots of oooohs and wooows. Music can be played on this BT monitor and isn’t restricted to a few tunes like the one from 2004. Along with the included tunes this BT monitor will also accept MP3 music input and music is much better quality these days.

Rechargeable batteries last well and are easily recharged during the day time in the parental docking station. We have been replacing our rechargeable batteries about 12-18 months due to a decrease in the time they last when fully charged.

All in all a very good baby/child monitor in so many ways.

The BT Pacifier Baby Monitor is an truly incredible bit of kit. ‘Kit’ being the perfect word, because this thing has so many gadgets, it’s more like the Knight Rider car than a baby monitor and is definitely one for the dads!

It has a light show that projects pretty patterns around the room, an MP3 input so you can play baby lullabies, a room temperature gauge, crystal clear HD sound, a night light on the main unit and a torch light on the control so you don’t have to switch on the nursery lights and well, the list goes on. Not only does the list go on, but each item on the list is pretty amazing too, and I could speak at length about each of them.

For example, the angle of the light show can be adjusted to project onto your chosen surface, and the the temperature gauge not only displays a reading on the remote, but effects the colour of the night light on the unit too – giving you a visual clue if the babies room is too hot; it changes from blue, to yellow, to orange, to red. And, as if that’s not enough, the parent unit will also beep and vibrate.

It can even be set up to your own specifications, using the `alerts’ function – this allows you to set a noise threshold, which means you’ll only be alerted to certain sounds. For example, you can set the unit so it only alerts you when baby cries, and not to coughs and splutters and small movement.

The item itself looks fantastic, with a nice bright colour scheme and fetching oval design. It’s sturdily built and really looks and feels the part sat on a bedside table. It’s quite big – bigger than you’d expect but that’s not a problem because its so feature packed.

Its simple and intuitive to use with buttons for all the major operations on both the remote and the main unit, and there’s safety features too; the unit flashes to highlight if the connection between the remote and main unit has been broken for instance.

This is a truly first class product that is well thought out, and works well in the field. If you can afford it – get it. You won’t regret it. It also comes with a travel pouch so you can take it with you on your travels too. And if like me you love your gadgets, you’ll find yourself fighting over whose turn it is to check on the baby.

It’s expensive, but you really get what you pay for with this product, and I’m pretty sure the the safety of your child’s worth the extra outlay, no?

Very qood quality. Sound is crystal clear. The twins love the lightshow. The melodies this has are great, even has hoover and vacuum sounds which are fantastic for white noise to soothe colic. Easy to plug in the mp3 player. The temp gauge is very clear, so easy to see if the room is too warm. Love the talk back feature, great for partner to say he needs help and you reply that you will be there in a moment lol.
All in all we are very impressed, we got the BT Pacifier Baby Monitor after first getting a Fisher Price moniter that was very disappointing, the fisher price moniter had very bad sstatic and we couldn’t hear the babies. We have no worries with this moniter, can even hear them breathing. Very good value for money.

The night light acts like a gro-egg so you can tell how hot it really is at a glance, it has a variety of tunes (not just lullabies, classical music and white noise for newborns), the light show is simple yet effective with slow fades and it spans across the ceiling. The sound is fantastic – I had an angelcare monitor before which I loved but there was so much interference and it kept cutting out on me so only ended up using the sensor mat – this has excelled itself, crystal clear sound which barely any static at all. There are some features I don’t really ‘get’ yet like the crying alert (as you’d hear your little on cry anyway) but I guess it could be useful for some people. If BT released something identical to this but with a sensor mat it would be THE perfect monitor, completely flawless. I really do love this monitor and even though it’s pricey it’s completely worth the money as it saves you buying that gro-egg/slumber bear/light show you’ve been eyeing up. A wonderful buy.

I chose the bt pacifier monitor because it looked totally different to the last one I had for my oldest daughter. When it arrived my first impression was WOW!! I have to say the picture on here does not do it justice, it just looks ace. My husband even said it looked pretty awesome, and he pays little or no interest at all in stuff like this. The first thing I have to say is that the light show is pretty cool for such a little gadget, we used to have one of those Winnie the pooh things that went on the cot, but this is far superior. I have not tried the mp3 player yet but then I don’t have any lullaby’s on the ipod that would suit being plugged in. The sound quality on the receiver is crystal clear and it does the job it’s supposed to do. Would recommend this product to all as its multifunctional, portable, rechargeable and just looks like one of the coolest monitors I have seen.

The BT 150 is a brilliant, brilliant monitor. The sound is so clear, it’s as if my toddler and newborn are in the same room as I am (and we have a 2,000 sq foot house!). I saw some negative reviews, but I have no idea how this falls short of being an awesome monitor. Sure, it has some gadgets on it that I don’t use (the lullabye option, nightlight.. etc), but I love that you can turn it on on ONE side (the parent unit) and the other side (baby unit) turns on as well- no need to plug/unplug turn it on on both ends! Plus, when charged, you can just take the parent with you to your bedroom or other room, and it lasts for 18+ hours! It’s unobtrusive, great design, lightweight… I honestly have no misgivings about the BT 150 Digital Baby Monitor, and I’m a VERY picky mum. Highly reccommend getting it.

This was our second baby monitor purchase after buying an analogue one, not realising how much interference there was. This monitor far exceeded our expectations and is so clear you can even hear baby breathing clearly. Has some fab functions most of which can be controlled through the parent unit so no need to disturb baby. Having just moved our daughter in her own room this is invaluable to us now and I feel comforted at night knowing how clear this is.

To be honest i bought the BT 150 baby monitor after reading the related reviews.

When i tried for the first time i was amazed. The clarity of the sound and the long range that can covered satisfied my expectations 100%. Have in mind that i live in a two floor house with a lot of blocks in the way from the transmitter to
receiver.

I consider the price fair in relation with the quality of the product.

I originally had a Tommee Tippee Suresound Deluxe but hated it and bought this BT 150 model instead. It is fantastic. The sound quality is fantastic and I like that you can turn the sensitivity up and down so we can choose not to hear every little snort and snore our son makes. (he’s a noisy sleeper). You can turn the volume up and down on the parent unit, and it vibrates so you can ‘feel’ if your child is yelling while you’re mowing the lawn with it in your pocket. The reception is fantastic; the signal has never dropped out even in our 3 storey thick-walled Victorian house, and it still gets the signal 70 metres down the end of the garden in our brick summerhouse. I like the temperature reading which you can see from the parent unit, I like the 5 different lullabies which you can turn on and off by remote. And the batteries last for ages and recharge easily by putting the unit back on the parent stand. I definitely recommend this monitor – yes it’s a little more pricey than many on the market, but it’s well worth it.

The BT Baby Monitor 150 is a well designed baby monitor incorporating a whole host of handy functions to help parents with keeping an eye (or ear) on their little ones once they have been put down for the night.

Both core sections of the monitor are constructed using a thick plastic casing giving them a sturdy exterior in case of any accidental knocks or droppages. Both sections need to be placed relatively close to a plug socket so that they can be plugged in (the leads that are supplied give about a metre’s worth of length).

The monitor includes a temperature gauge which alerts the parents when the room’s temperature is either higher or lower than the pre-set temperature range (e.g. between 14 and 23 degrees centigrade). The pre-set temperature range can be easily adjusted, allowing for total control for the parents.

The monitor has five different lullabies it can play to your baby/babies, which each last for 15 minutes on a constant loop. You can even record your own lullaby, lasting a maximum of 2 minutes. This is a nice little feature for all those aspiring musicians out there or simply for parents who would like their baby/babies to be soothed to sleep by their voices. You can even plug in an MP3 player or other similar device and have the monitor play music from that instead. There’s also a `talk’ function which basically acts as a one-sided walkie-talkie between the base unit and the parent unit (great fun for scaring the hell out of your partner when they go to check up on the baby-babies).

Other handy features are a comforting nightlight to help the baby/babies get to sleep with. A torch on the parents unit (this is a lot handier than you would have thought). A `paging’ function for when you undoubtedly misplace the parents portable unit. There’s also a timer, so that you can monitor/schedule how long you want the baby/babies to sleep for. Finally the unit includes a digital clock, which to be honest we haven’t used once – but maybe others do!

All of the alerts and speakers can have their volumes and/or sensitivities adjusted, including using the vibrate facility (like with a mobile phone). The parents unit also comes with an incredibly handy clip so that it can be easily secured on to a belt or item of clothing. This means you can get on with things around the house without having to remember to constantly pick up the monitor.

The batteries in the parent monitor are automatically re-charged on the charging cradle each time you put it back on it. The rechargeable batteries should give up to 14 hours of continuous performance. The parent unit takes 2 x AA rechargeable batteries (supplied) and the monitor unit can take 4 x AA Alkaline batteries (not supplied) if it wasn’t going to be plugged in to a mains socket.

I bought the BT 150 Digital Baby Monitor about 4 months ago after giving up on the Tomy Platinum after having two Tomy units that broke over 18 months (if you’re deciding between the the BT 150 and the Tomy do read my review on that item).

I was a little reluctant to buy a product that BT have stuck their name on as the BT brand just means ‘mediocre’ to me but I’m glad I overcame my irrational brand prejudice as the BT150 is just BRILLIANT. It’s solid, the features and product design are well thought out and the battery life is phenomenal, which is such a huge help when you’re travelling with your baby monitor. A small point but indicative of the attention to detail is that the baby light is a warm yellow rather than a cold blue as on the Tomy (which was nasty and felt like one of those UV fly traps left on in shops over night).

It’s probably got more features than I need but hardly a negative particularly given it’s well priced. After 18 months of being disappointed and annoyed by the Tomy I’m just delighted with this BT 150 digital baby monitor product. It’s cured me of my brand prejudice to the extent that I’ve just bought a BT internet radio.
