4 out of 5 stars Very Good Baby-Manitor   August 20, 2010
Joao Tobias L. Sales (Brazil)
It is a very good and useful baby monitor, specially because it does not get any other interference with any signal from other eletronic devices. The image is good and it also shows the image from the darkness of a room. The sound quality should be better, but, if you are sleeping you really don`t need much sound around. I use mine specially to watch my baby.

Too much interference...only a 14 day return window...the main unit doesn't have a power plug in(have to use batteries). Eats up batteries quickly. Does have good picture when it your are close to the camera unit.


1 out of 5 stars Don't waste your money   March 4, 2010
mom2boy+twinboys (Seattle)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

We bought this because of the multi-camera function since we have twins. This is a total waste of money. We had originally ordered the Levana Babyview 20 video monitor but returned it because it doesn't have the ability to connect multiple cameras. Having tried that one out I can tell you that it is a MUCH better product! The sound is much clearer, there is no interference, set up is simple and it actually has a clear picture.
The cons of the SVAT were:

1) It is not 'color' as advertised. I never saw a bit of color on the screen.
2) There is a ton of interference even when our wireless router was turned off. Rolling lines on the screen accompanied by a clicking sound which is exceptionally obnoxious, especially at night. This happens each time it switches between cameras and each time anything comes near the handheld unit.
3) It does not have a sensor which switches it to night vision. You must switch a tiny little switch on the camera. Imagine trying to do this in the dark if you accidentally forgot to do it before puting baby down for the night.
4) The night vision doesn't work well at all. Compared to the Levana Babyview, it is horrible! The Levana could see all the way across the room and was still clear. This is hardly visible from 2 ft. away. One of the cameras (we ordered an extra one seperately) seemed better than the other.
5) The handheld unit is huge and awkward and made out of a cheap plastic which doesn't seem durable at all.
6) The cameras might be fine once they were mounted, but they are also made out of a cheap, lightweight plastic and won't stay put unless they're mounted in place.
7) The instructions are very confusing. When setting up the channels on the handheld unit, down is 'on' and up is 'off' so it took a while to even figure out how to get a picture out of both cameras.
8) In order to use the handheld unit without the ac adaptor, you have to remove the back cover and take out the batteries.
9) The battery life in the handheld unit was horrible! I think they lasted about 2 hours.
10) Before playing with the 3 channels, this totally blocked our wireless router.

The pros were:
1) Price.
2) Ability to add additional cameras.

All in all, I would definitely spend a little more money and get something that works.



5 out of 5 stars Works as advertized - excellent product for travel as well   February 5, 2010
J. White (United States)
I work in the intelligence field and I got this to monitor my children downstairs while I'm upstairs in my office. For the price and plug-&-view - this is a great product. I have CCTV security system for my residence - but this little gem can be taken anywhere. Plug in while at a hotel - park your car outside your window - and monitor it while you're in your room. It's versatile to say the least. Shop around for the best price. Glad I got it - it has come in handy alot!

The Video is high quality but there is substantial interferance which creates alot of static in the audio and some static in the video. I was impressed with the quality of the night vision.
