Very easy to use, discreet under mattress and great for peace of mind, especially for the worries of being a first time mum!!
Can sometimes go off if baby moves off sensor pad, however better to randomly go off than not!!
Sensor alerts if no movement within 20seconds, easy to use, long wires
Weaknesses:
Small pad so if baby rolls of alarm will be activated, night light not bright enough

I love this item it has made me relax and have piece of mind. The wire to the sensor pad is long, has a small night light on it with three settings but this isn't very bright. Alarm will alert when there has been no movement for 20seconds, this can cause distress if baby has rolled off the pad causing the alarm to alert. Sensor will pick up baby noise. The small monitor can be placed on the charging Dock and used to walk around the house or garden once charged. It shows a light green light when baby is moving and if alert goes off it turns red and has a message saying check baby. Really glad I bought this.
I have been using this for the past 3 months for my son, replacing an old Motorola monitor.
We have used the mat a couple of times but feel we don’t need it at the moment as the monitor itself picks up when our son needs us.
You are able to make this more or less sensitive at the baby and parent end. The options and settings are great as there are a few choices and sensitivities to choose from... I would recommend this monitor to any new parent.
I owe this baby monitor a lot of sleep. Before I brought it I was a nervous wreck. I got one and I slept so much better knowing that the movement pad was under my precious baby. Would highly recommend
It's the perfect monitor. It doesn't let constant noise through. Just when the baby cries, which is great.
The breathing mat is a god send, really put my mind at ease. I am a massive worry when it comes down to his breathing at night time.
Brought this and it has been fab, the quality is brill and if not sure if they are making any noise th blue lights move to detect motion.
Definitely recommend.
I love loved this product and couldn’t have lived without it. I still use it 15 months on! When the movement pad is on I can hear every breath the baby takes. But when the pad is off it sometimes doesn’t always let you hear everything.
Can use it to talk to your baby back
This product gives me full peace of mind, my baby was premature & having the sensor mat was great,it works through a cot mattress which I didn't expect & we can hear her clearly when she wakes up.Would fully recommend.
It’s a very useful baby monitor glad that I’ve bought it but I like to put it in the pram so if my baby falls asleep it’s still checking him but the shape isn’t really the best for it.
The display on the monitor stopped working on the babies end but doesnt affect use

Good monitor. Can hear baby clear and the mat under the mattress is added reassurance. Just the display on the babies end that shows the bedroom temp stopped working but still shows on the parents monitor.
Great value for a sensor mat and monitor all in one. Works perfectly well and does the job but the wire is slightly too short even though our cot is right next to the socket so keep that in mind when positioning this.
I brought this product after my other two children were ill as baby's I couldn't sleep unless someone was watching her this product gave me peace of mind
It is very accurate. The alarm has only ever gone off when the baby has been fully off the sensor pa
Weaknesses:
The wires are easily broken due to the way the wire comes out of the top when plugged into mains.

We first bought this product when we were expecting our first baby (born in 2014) we were a little sceptical as to whether it would actually work but we used it from day 1 until when my son was moved into a single bed. Even then we continued to use the monitor just not the sensor pad. We then purchased another when my second was born in 2017. The monitor etc was all working perfectly so would have been able to use the same if it wasn't for the wires which seem to break easily if you travel with it.
Since 2014 they seem to have added extra with plastic casing to hide the wires which is a great idea however would he good if the trailing wire came out of the bottom of the socket rather than the top. Overall an amazing purchase and we wouldn't be without!
Alerts you to any issues such as baby not breathing.
Weaknesses:
Alarm can go off if baby moves off the sensor mat.

So glad we bought this monitor. Wouldn't be without it now as it gives me such reassurance that our daughter is okay at night. Love the inbuilt night light which you have 3 brightness settings on. Sound quality is great. Sensor mat offers the constant reassure that baby is breathing and okay. Something that is not provided by standard audio baby monitors. Best baby product we have bought! Instructions for mat installation are very easy to understand.
Simple to use and set up. Goes into sleep mode until movement or noise in the room.
Weaknesses:
Loses signal ALOT

We wanted something simple when it came to a baby monitor. It is simple and easy to use. Simple design that can blend into any room. Hard wearing as it’s been dropped a few times and we travel with it a lot. It is a reliable monitor most of the time however it loses signal a lot! Which is very annoying as the loss of signal warning can often wake us up in the night. So even though so many good points I would not choose to buy this again. I would prefer to get one with a camera.
Microphone cable exposed and so has started to fray. Average product for the cost.

These have been ok for us, the microphone is rather exposed at the back and as a resulting the plastic has split and the cables are visible. Quite expensive for what you get. Never used the movement sensor pad as it wasn't very reliable. However good quality sound and very good quality materials used. It has been reliable even with my toddler throwing the portable handset.
I purchased this product to use with my 3rd baby. It is hands down the best monitor we have used. It is so simple to set up, and the distance in which you can hear from baby to the handheld monitor is fantastic. We tried it with our elder daughters and you could hear them whispering from a distance of about 5metres.
When she got to her figiting whilst asleep stage the monitor didnt pick up the whole mattress

I am a firm believer in these sleep monitors i feel it gave me peace of mind with being a first time mummy....but as she got to her fighting whilst asleep stage it didn't pick up the whole mattress so kept going off.
Helped me relax, can talk to baby and hear baby clear, in 10 seconds of no movement it alarms.
Weaknesses:
Very sensitive, lots of wires and alarm too quiet

I felt this product gave me the comfort I needed as I was so paranoid while my baby slept, so I was able to sleep knowing it will alarm me if all was not ok. It was easy to put together, the monitor isn’t too big, and I can talk to my baby through it which I like, would like the alarm to be a little louder and less wires as well but overall I would 100% recommend it.
Only used a few times as alarm kept going off. Not great if you have a fidhety sleeper like my daughter. Was great for first few nights whilst we got settled as i worried. Wouldnt really need to use if you are breadtfeeding though as i wake up quite reguarly. Good video and sound quality
Used this monitor for the first two months of my daughters life. The mat kept going off in error and scaring me half to death. Would reccomend the baby monitor as it had clear sound and very reliable however not the sensor mat.
Alarm can sometimes go off for no reason or if baby has slightly moved of the mat

A cheaper version of the monitor with the camera. I found it was a valuable addition to the nursery.
The sensor mat could probably do with being larger to cover a bigger area of the cot and the battery doesn't hold a lot of charge but I do like this brand of monitor.
Alarm goes of sometimes but better safe than sorry

I used this with both of my children I loved the reassurance that they where ok I wouldn't have been able to relax without it as I am a worrier like most mums I suppose. I had few false alarms where it went of but baby was fine but other than that I loved this monitor.
Large base area which makes it very tricky to balance on top of anything

I think this is a great piece of kit and have found it very useful for the first 8 months of my sons life :) he’s been in his cot since 4 months and I think the sensitivity function comes in handy to take away that “worried mummy” sprint into their room when they make the tiniest noise in the night. We haven’t ever used the pad for heart rate since my boy rolls around so much in his sleep and am sure we would end up with the alarm going off every half an hour otherwise!
I have used this in both personal and working environment. Perfect for piece of mind when baby is asleep in a different room to you. Only down side is that this can be over sensitive and can go off for no reason when baby isn’t in the cot.
For peace of mind while your baby is asleep, choose the Closer to Nature DECT Sound & Movement Baby Monitor with digital enhanced cordless technology. The DECT Sound and Movement Monitor will pick up and relay your baby's slightest noises to the parent unit.
It comes with a detachable sensor pad to fits under your baby's mattress and will sound an alarm if no movement is detected after 20 seconds.
The monitor is easy to set up and simple use; the clever talkback feature and range of 300 metres with volume control and nightlight allow you to comfort your baby from another room.
The parent unit has an easy-to-read LCD monitor indicating the room temperature, a rechargeable docking station, auto-channel select, and a volume indicator.
