Same as you! My only complaint is the feedback that it gives off when the camera and display are too close. My friend has a summer infant monitor and it gives no feedback ... So she could have her lo in a bassinet right by her bed and still watch him on the camera .... Maybe not totally necessary but I'm a worrier so id love to do that too

We just ordered an IP camera at my dad's encouragement. Hopefully, we'll like it! If not, we're getting the Motorola 3.5".

We have the HD Foscam and I love it. I didn't research monitors at all. For all I know, other monitors could spin straw into gold. I just went by the Foscam recommendations on HB and never looked back.

We have the motorola too bc of the Bees. Basically if @Mrs.Bee reviews it and says it's good and I'm in the market for that item - I buy it. Same thing goes for any of the HB Bloggers.

I have the older Levana - it was a gift from my MIL. It's not fancy but it works and I'm pretty impressed with it - especially for its price point.

We were gifted the Summer Infant Slim and Secure color video monitor. It was decent until we got a new router, and then it never worked. I guess if there's too many signals going on in the house, it can crap out. We'd have to unplug the router every night, and after awhile, it just had issues finding signal all the time. Now we use it for traveling.
We replaced it with the iBaby, and so far, it's been great. My husband loves the fact that he can watch our son wake up in the morning after he leaves for work, and it's nice that we can just leave the ipad with whomever is watching him, and still have access to it on our iphones.

@MusicaV: Could you post a link to the HD Foscam? I found some on Amazon, but I can't tell if they're HD or not. Thanks!

Haha we went old school.. a sound-only monitor was on clearance so we picked it up. LO's room is only 10 feet from ours, so I'm really not worried about having a video cam. Who knows though, someone might get us a fancy one for the baby shower.

We have a Motorola 3.5 one. I love, love it! I can't believe that we went 5 months without one.

@Bookworm: We had an old school one, but there was way too much feedback. Our bedroom is close to LO's, so we would constantly do checks on him because the sound monitor didn't do it for us. The video monitor is so much better. I can watch as he's waking up and see if he'll soothe himself back to sleep. It's helped me to see his sleeping habits better.

@lawbee11: The model we have is the FI9820W. http://www.amazon.com/Foscam-FI9820W-Indoor-Megapixel-Wireless/dp/B008O5BJIU/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1362195965&sr=8-6&keywords=HD+Vision+FI9820W
It has pretty bad reviews on Amazon. According to the reviewers, there's a newer, better model - FI8921. I think it came out after we bought ours.
