I finally need to bite the bullet and get one. I don't need anything too fancy. It'll barely get used but I need it for nap time and when she's in her crib and we haven't gone to bed yet. Our rooms share a vent in the wall so when she needs me in the morning, I can hear her.
LO is our second child and we found the audio only monitor with the first to be hard to use (and woke him up checking on him) we got a video monitor for $100 and love it.
Like ahimsa suggested...we went with a foscam also. Love it! Outs was slightly more expensive but the night vision is wonderful That's on the wall about 10ft from her bed. And creepily at night you can watch her eyes open and close.
We also have a Foscam video monitor, no problems so far. Only complaint is that the parent unit's battery life is pretty short unplugged, but I just leave it plugged in at night and it's not a problem.
We had a summer infant audio monitor with DD and I really liked it. Good range, clear audio, etc. Got a Motorola video monitor this time around and hate it.
We have a summer video monitor and have been using it since 2009. We have two cameras installed so I can switch back and forth between 2 rooms. Night vision is great too. Can even see if eyes are open or closed. I need the peace of mind of a video monitor.
Summer Infant video monitor here as well. It also has an intercom feature so as they get older you can use it to say "get back in bed" so far we've had no issues

I enjoy stalking my baby with our motorola video monitor. Hubs had to have all the bells and whistles and I like that I can tell the room temp from the monitor bc our AC is unpredictable. The range is not amazing but I can go out in our small yard and it will still work. My only complaint is even on the lowest setting it is too bright at night but I might have thought that about any video monitor.
I've be AWOL from the boards for what seems like a hundred years, hope you are all doing well!
We have a Samsung Brilliantview. For the most part, I am happy with it. Last week it just flat stopped working (the receiver). But Buy Buy Baby has a no hassle return policy, so we got a new one and here's hoping it lasts more than 6 months.
When I took LO to visit my parents in SWFL a couple weeks ago, I purchased a cheapie audio so that we could put him down in the guest room and then still go out to their lanai for dinner. It worked really well - I would definitely recommend it if audio is all you need: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JEV5UM4?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00
We were gifted a Motorola monitor but H read too many bad reviews so he exchanged it for the Levana Ayden monitor and so far, so good. LO moves around A LOT so it's nice to be able to swivel the camera around from the hand held monitor and still see him.
We also have a VTech Audio monitor that vibrates when baby cries which is very helpful since I am hearing impaired.
I use the Levana for nap time, and VTech at night.
