With a newborn baby on the way, I started researching and looking into baby monitors as something we were keen on for when our baby was born. I found that it was a bit of a minefield out there with dozens of products each with their own different types of monitoring capabilities. Some checked temperature, some checked heartbeat/breathing, some were clunky attachments etc. After some consideration to reviews etc I decided go go with sense -u with the full video + baby 2 package which included everything - the monitor , the camera, base station, cables and full instructions in a nicely packaged box. It was the only product which seems too cover pretty much everything in a baby monitor package which surprised me as there is a massive market for this out there
The Sense u baby monitor product itself works great, set up was easy and the app is well balanced between ease of use and customisation featured such as changing parameters before it alerts you (if you want to) and the display page showing a baby picture with the sensors for temperature, breathing status and body position. These are all the sensors you need to make sure you baby is okay. If it goes out of the parameters it sends an audio alert to your phone and/or the base station. I've not had any issues with it and seems accurate and good battery life (not sure how they crammed all this into the clip on attachment!)
The attachment itself is small which was a must for me as I didn't want to make my baby uncomfortable . There was another good product on the market which clips onto the nappy but it was bulky and it put me off. The sense u attachment has really made a great trade off with the portability and size profile of the device without compromising on features or battery life which to me ticked all the boxes. It clips to the top of the nappy perfectly though it's not officially stated you can probably use the Clip on other parts of the clothes. I've had no issues or problems using this device as of yet. One small issue was that when the baby was first born, she had a cord attached to the belly button which we had to wait to let fall out before using the attachment as it goes into this area at the belly button above the nappy. It does say in the instructions to use at that particular area but I'm sure you would get the same results a bit further across the belly on the nappy.
I've been using the product for a few weeks now and though not used the camera properly yet, it works fine and once our baby moves into their own nursery Room, we will be using this also and the micro SD card port is a great addition to capture memories
I feel much safer using this product , I must say that I think they did a great job with this particular package as to this date, nothing comes close to a full baby monitor package that has all the features you need in one. Really happy with this and would recommend it to other buyers who are looking for similar. Better than I expected.
