Product Description
For parents who want to be active during baby's naptime, this monitor gives you a long-range connection with your baby that's as clear in the backyard as it is in the kitchen. With 900 MHz technology, you get a more powerful signal with excellent clarity and greater range - up to 900 feet (under permitting conditions). So you can go anywhere around the house or yard and still stay in touch with baby. Other features include out-of-range indicator light and belt clip for portability. Requires 3 "AAA" 1.5V batteries, not included. Measures 8.25" x 3.4" x 12.25".

 Excellent reception and easy to use! December 12, 2008
We purchased the Fisher-Price Long Distance 900MHz Monitor for our new baby's room. Like all Fisher-Price products, this has very simple and durable form factors.
However, though it looks like a toy (and therefore fits right in with a small child's room), it is packed with reliable technology. The "broadcast" base has excellent gain -- we have it on a shelf *across* the room from the crib, with no loss of sound quality or coverage. The wide, flat base also doubles a large "night light" that can be turned on or off.
The single remote receiver has an integrated power and volume dial, so it is extremely easy to use. It also has a series of red LEDs that show the strength of broadcasted sounds, giving a visual as well as audio cue when the baby cries. It has a sturdy belt clip built into the casing.
Our home is brick, and our lot nearly an acre -- but the signal strength has been excellent everywhere we've taken the receiver. With four different "channels" to choose from, we have had no interference from our other wireless devices (e.g., cordless phones, network wi-fi access point, etc.).
I highly recommended this device for parents who want peace of mind, and can make-do with a single receiver.
 Battery Hog and Doesn't always turn off November 30, 2008
Overall, this monitor works, has good distance, etc. But it has a couple of real annoying issues. First it consumes batteries (3 AAA) as fast as my daughter consumes bottles. Generally about every 2-3 days it needs new batteries - and that's with having it plugged in most of the time. And because the battery cover is a screw, it's not easy to change. Secondly, the low battery monitor continues to go off even when the unit is turned off. So the only way to get it to stop is to remove the batteries.
I would look at another product instead.
Great Buy! November 9, 2008
Amazing sound quality! Works perfectly on the other side of the house. I have to put the sound on the lowest level or I'll hear the baby breathing! Good battery life also.
I'd recommend this product for everyone.
clear audio inside and outside October 30, 2008
Fisher monitor works like a charm, clear audio anywhere inside and while I work outside the house doing chores.
I like it! October 12, 2008
Personally I love this monitor. It has a long range and you can hear everything crystal clear. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because if you get it too close to a computer it will click periodically. Not a huge deal and it like that with any monitor you get near something with a simalar fequency. All in all it's a good buy (and not a bad price!).
P.S. the night light glows green not yellow
