Product Description
Our Movement Sensor with Sound Monitor detects your baby's slightest movements, even while she sleeps. While it may seem that your baby is perfectly still when she is sleeping, she really isn't.

The under-the-mattress Sensor Pad detects your baby's slightest movements. If your baby goes absolutely still for 20 seconds, the Sensor Pad sends a signal to the Nursery Unit which sounds an alarm alerting you to check your baby. If you are out of the baby's room, the two portable Parents' Units (Sound Monitor) will pick up the alarm as well as other nursery sounds.

In addition, the Nursery Unit has an optional "tic" feature. If the Sensor Pad senses movement, the Nursery Unit will continuously tick. If it doesn't, the ticking will stop. The two Parents' Units give you the flexibility of always leaving one in your bedroom while moving the second unit to the room you are in while your baby is sleeping.

Your crib must have a hard flat surface. If it does not, just place a piece of masonite or a board under the mattress and place the Sensor Pad on top of the masonite and under the mattress. Be sure to place the correct side of the Sensor Pad facing up.

The Angelcare Movement Sensor will give you the peace of mind you won't get from just a sound monitor or even a video monitor. And, this monitor is an excellent value. It is 2 monitors in 1 so you don't have to purchase a sound monitor.

The Movement Sensor with Sound Monitor includes an Under-the-Mattress Sensor Pad, a Nursery Unit, 2 Parents' Units (sound monitor) and 3 AC adapters. It can also operate with 12 AAA batteries (not included).

Excellent Product!: Rating: 5/5
We love this product. After 5 1/2 weeks in the NICU with our baby (born at 31 weeks) we were very accustomed our baby being monitored. We bought this product and have been using it for a week now and it works great. We know it probably isn't foolproof, but it is a tool to help us keep the baby safe. For those who complained of false alarms (of which I read many reviews), I would argue that perhaps they weren't false. After our hospital experience, we now know babies do stop breathing. Apnea/Bradychardias are the main reason preemies don't get discharged. Every incident the baby has moves your discharge date back a week. And incidents happen often (mostly while eating, but also while sleeping). If your baby isn't hooked to a monitor, you'd often never realize it. So I believe that many of these "false alarms" people are complaining about are probably legitimate. I highly recommend this product-just keep in mind it is just a tool and diligence is still required in keeping your baby safe.

Must Have: Rating: 5/5
This monitor is fabulous. We have the baby in the bassinet right next to our bed, but I still wouldn't sleep as peacefully without this monitor! We haven't had any false alarms (except when I picked her up and forgot to turn it off- it definitely works, nearly gave my husband a heart attack!). I can't say enough good things about it. If you are considering this monitor- just get it!! It could be a lifesaver!

Best monitor: Rating: 5/5
Best monitor ever. Gives you peace of mind. Reception is great and clear. Never staticky.

Peace of Mind: Rating: 4/5
My husband and I bought this for our firstborn son when he was about 1 month old. We moved him out of our room and into his crib upstairs around that time and we were terrified of SIDS. We were deciding between this and a video monitor. I think this product is wonderful. Sure, there are false alarms. We've had to increase the sensitivity a bit and we still get them. However, being woken up occasionally for a false alarm is much preferred to not being woken up for a true emergency. It also alerts us to times he has rolled to the side of the crib. I find the sound quality superior to our other monitor (Fisher Price Sounds and Lights). Even though the price is a good value, can a price really be put on a parent's peace of mind?

I've lost count of the false alarms.: Rating: 1/5
I wanted so much for this thing to work. We are first time parents and like many, were terrified at the thought of sids. We've been using the monitor since our baby was about three months old and have had countless false alarms. Theres no rhyme or reason to when or why the alarm goes off. One day it will go off every half hour whether she on the sensor or not. Then we'll be alarm free for the next three nights. Then we'll have false alarms every night for a week. I can honestly say I havent had a full nights sleep in months and its not due to a fussy baby...its due to a fussy alarm!
We've discussed not using it anymore, but we are both too scared to stop. So yes, it does give us peace of mind, when it works. Unfortunately thats only about 50% of the time.
The worst part is that the alarm goes off in the babys room too, so not only do we get woken up every night, she does too. As a matter of fact the whole reason Im writing this review right now is that the alarm went off when we were both trying to nap,(I need the nap because I had 3 false alarms last night), and now she's wide awake and grumpy and Im just plain angry.
We are on the verge of giving up on this item and today might have just clinched it for me. Would I reccommend this to a friend? A few months ago, maybe. But with all the frustration we've experienced until now, I would probably tell them to save thier money.
