Best reviews on baby things

Options
Hi, I am trying to find a website that does reviews.
I am looking to buy a baby monitor and trying to find reviews on different ones.

Does anyone know which baby monitor is the best at the moment?
Or the best website for reviews? Thanks:j

  • i have a bt one, 150 i think the model number is. It is great. Both neighbours have babies and on the last lot we could pick up next doors baby and they picked up mine!n Got mine off ebay for about £20

    These are great. they have a light function with little star lights on, you can turn on and off from remote, they also have talkback facility on them and you can play soothing tunes if lo wakes up. Also, its portable so if you are in kitchen, or garden in summer when lo is in bed you can take it with you! Battery life is good on walk around mode too

    As for reviews, i expect a google of 'baby monitor reviews' would bring up plenty reading! Or try the argos website, or littlewoods, or amazon ppl can leave reviews there, But some sites pay ppl for reviewing things so the reviews may not actually be that reliable.

    We also have the BT 150 and it is great, it has won a Which? award too. THe ability to make it do things remotely is fab.

    3rd vote for the 150 - I recommend it to everyone that asks about what baby monitor to get - Amazon does it for a good price too :)

    good review site is www.dooyoo.co.uk

    Me too, I bought mine from boots - the temperature monitor on it is very handy too, you can set it for a minimum temp and maximum temp and it will warn you if it reaches that.

    this is ours, think the same or similiar to what the others have recommended and you can probably get it much cheaper than this site but was the first one I found with a picture!

    We've had it for over 4yrs now and it's still in use, never had a problem and would highly recommend.

    I had a BT one and it was fab, son particularly liked the tunes, husband and I liked the sensitivity of the parent unit. Sadly it hasn't lasted and we have to get a new one for No2. I'm reasonably sure this has nothing to do with the unit itself as we have lived in 9 houses in 3 years and most of our belongings are protesting at moving and signs of damage etc are all too obvious.

    Which? highly recommends the BT ones.
