Hi bees, I've recently had a terrible experience with Motorola customer service and need to replace my double video monitor ASAP. Any recommendations? Thanks!

We have the BabyOptics MR5 (MX5?) and have been pretty happy with it.

We just got a Summer Infant one. Actually it's our second one. The first one still works but they discontinued the model so we couldn't get a 2nd camera. Other than my being pissed off that something is discontinued that's not even 2 years old (a rant for another day), we've been happy.

We have a Levana Stella, which only comes with one camera, but you can buy extra and add up to 4 cameras all on the same video screen

@QBbride: it only comes with 1, but it will take up to 4 camera feeds. You just have to purchase the additional cameras.

@QBbride: No complaints! My connection sometimes it's wacky but I suspect it's b/c we've dropped the camera a few times...

@QBbride: We have a Levana Astra and after 14 months are still very happy with it. It also comes with 1 camera but can add more (up to 4).

LO2 is due next month so we bought a Summer Infant Dual View in anticipation. I liked the fact I could see both LOs on the same screen instead of the flipping back and forth (even though the audio will scan between). Our old Motorola crapped out on us a couple months ago so we started using it early in just the toddler's room. So far so good. I miss the room temperature reading more than I thought I would though.

We have a levana and haven't had any problems in the year we've had it. My cousin's daughter dropped it in a bird bath and despite being submerged it still works perfectly.
We got it at Costco.

Hmm I didn't think of ordering from Costco @oliviaoblivia: I should have done that so when it inevitably craps out on us we can take it back.
Well Motorola has finally taken notice since I posted on their Facebook page. I should have done that two months ago. We will see if it works out (I'm not optimistic).

I would maybe try speaking with someone else at Motorola. They have been SO accommodating and overly generous to us. We purchased a single camera monitor in 2012 that they ended up replacing a couple of times and even upgraded me for the inconvenience to a double camera monitor. When the double camera monitor went out a few months ago, I called them to see if I could get it fixed and they said no, but that they would replace it AGAIN. I was in disbelief. Their CS has been amazing to us!

@PrincessBaby: same here. we are looking at a double video monitor and I only want motorola because they were so accommodating with the few issues we've had (and that we caused).

We have a Safety 1st and I like it, picture is clear...except one time we heard a women's voice over it say "Hi"

@PrincessBaby: @ladybee: haha I can almost not even imagine good customer service from them, I've been on the receiving end of horrible customer service for two months now!
I wrote on their Facebook page and have finalllly started to get answers now, so maybe I should have done that a lot earlier. We will see if they have sent me the correct monitor - after 4 or 5 incorrect ones.
