VTech DM112-2 Safe & Sound Digital Audio Baby Monitor With Two Parent Units

Opened box, and on day 1 the baby monitor unit is not turning on
Opened box, and on day 1 the baby monitor unit is not turning on and not working. There is no warranty or support details as well. This is most expensive product in their category and disappointing to see this. 😥😥

Trash product, for your bin !
Absolute trash. Didn’t work for even one minute. The baby units won’t pair with the parent unit. The parent unit power goes off after every 30 seconds. Either I have got a faulty unit, or this is an absolute trash product.

Don’t buy
Gave up exactly after the return period

We purchased this item in late March. Within 2 months the batteries on both handheld units are garbage and they have to be plugged in at all times.

I’ve been really happy with this set of one base station and two parent units. You get three AC adapters, one for the base (which cannot use batteries) and one for each parent unit. The sound is very clear, and there’s no static thanks to it using a 6.0ghz DECT digital signal. The units will alert you if they lose connection with the base station so that you know you can’t hear your baby. Very simple no-frills operation. That being said there are a couple of downsides:1. The form factor is awful. The parent units being shaped like an egg, tip over very easily especially if they have the cord plugged into them.2. The parent units each use two AAA batteries. When reading other reviews, I saw others complaining that they drain batteries very fast when unplugged. This is an under statement. It seems like 2-3 hours off the charger and the low battery light starts flashing and the unit beeps. I’m using 800mah Ni-MH rechargable batteries that I bought for these units. If I were using disposable batteries, I would be really upset with how fast they were being drained. But being prepared for this and having rechargeable its not a huge problem (just having to swap daily).The high frequency digital signal is nice because it would be extremely difficult if not impossible for someone to eavesdrop on the units with any type of consumer equipment, unlike the old analog monitors where you could tap in easily with a scanner.All in all a good unit, if you can overlook the terrible battery life and crappy form factor. I might try to order extra ac adapters for the spots that I move to around the house so I can rely on batteries less.
