Both the parent and the baby unit are very small compared to what I expected from the advertised images!I'm happy with the parent unit using AAA rechargeables (included) and the baby unit using both outlet power as 4 * AA non-rechargeables.No interference, it works as advertised, I recommend it.

This is by far the best baby monitor I have tried & it is my fourth attempt!!! Simple to use, lots of extra features if you're into that sort of thing. The most important aspect for me was the perfectly clear transmission with no interference. I can hear my baby breathing & turning over or moving in the cot at the maximum sensitivity / volume setting, (or the sensitivity / volume can be decreased if preferred). Great battery life. Parent unit is small & stylish like a mobile phone & I particularly like the cord you can attach to carry it around your neck.Before this one I have also tried the following monitors...- a very old Angelcare monitor (very good & would recommend - older models just a bit buzzy with interference),- a basic Tommee Tippee (awful interference, but gave to a friend & it is fine in her house),- BT 150 (the worst - interference, not sensitive/loud enough & transmission would cut out even though lights said still transmitting - so scary!!! Sent it back)I am thinking about getting another Philips Avent SCD520 for my second baby as Philips have assured me because the monitors use DECT technology so won't interfere with each other.Highly recommended!

Having previously used one of the first Philips DECT baby monitors I was keen to see how this new model performed. Whereas the older model offered basic monitoring and talk facility this new model offers several extra features including 5 lullabies, digital display, remote access and temperature monitoring.Its crisp white colour is far more pleasing on the eye than the old brown and cream version and the overall aesthetics are much improved. The monitoring unit is neat and unobtrusive with a natty little temperature monitoring antenna at the rear. So far the temperature monitor has been spot on and I have not had any trouble with false readings as some reviewers have mentioned.The handset sits securely in its cradle without the finicky connection of the old version which used to be a bit of a lottery at the best of times. The menu system is very straight forward and its a doddle to set your preferences regarding sensitivity, volume, temperature and sound alerts. Another nice little feature is the ability to turn the night light and lullabies on remotely. I was expecting the lullabies to be dreadfully tinny and annoying but in truth they are rich and soothing, albeit a little short in duration. The night light is adequately bright and does not light the room up like a beacon as some makes do.The sound quality is excellent and I have had no incidence of signal interference from other wireless devices in the home. If I have any criticisms it is the use of the blue screen illumination where the writing is very awkward to distinguish due to it appearing blue on a blue background. It would also be useful if you could turn off the rather loud beep from the handset when changing settings in the middle of the night!Overall I am extremely pleased with the quality of this item and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to fellow parents.Yes its expensive but you cannot but a price on the peace of mind it provides and the old adage of 'you get what you pay for' applies here.
