Digital camera Review: I love my daisy color monitor
Summary: 4 Stars
I was very excited to receive my dancing daisy and use it right away. After searching the net for several items, I decided on the dancing daisy video color monitor for many reasons. I use it every day and cannot wait to get more accessories! I have been very happy about my purchase. JenniferDigital camera Review: I love the dancing daisy!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was a little nervous when I ordered this monitor because there were no reviews on it. I read reviews on all the other video monitors available and almost decided on another brand, but I really really wanted to get the "dancing daisy", I thought it looked so cute!! I'm still a little dissapointed because I wanted to get the yellow/orange model but because it didn't go with my nursery I had to go with the pink one. And I have to say, I don't regret my purchase at all.
The camera looks soooo cute I will buy another one if/when I have another baby (you can use up to 4 with just one receiver). It's not only that it looks cute, it works great too. I had a little trouble at the beginning finding a right place for it, I didn't want to place it on the changing table because I could only see my baby through the rails, so I "clipped" it to the side of the crib and now I get a clear picture from above. The picture is actually better than I had expected (black and white at night, but very clear), and the sound is great too. I did have a little interference with the video at first but moving the receiver around solved the problem. My bedroom and the nursery are really close, wall to wall, I do not know if this has anything to do with it or if it actually helps in getting a clear image.
Also, I had to set the volume to the lowest setting I could because there was a little static but it goes away by lowering the volume. I had this problem with my sound only model too, again, do not know if it's because of the short distance between monitor and receiver.
The only thing I don't like is that the video monitor is really bright, and I'm a light sleeper, a little noise or light wakes me up, so what I do is I wait until the baby falls sleep, turn off the monitor and leave my sound only monitor on. If she wakes up during the night I just turn on the monitor and see if she's just fuzzing or if I need to go and get her. One night I forgot to turn on the sound monitor in the nursery so I had to leave the video monitor on all night, I just placed a dark paper on top of the screen and that way the light didn't bother me.
I should also mention, the camera itself does not have an on/off button, so you either leave it on all the time or just unplug it when not in use (which is what I do), it would be nice to just turn it off but unplugging it is not such a big deal.
All in all a great monitor, it looks and works great. I'm really happy with my purchase and would recommend it to my friends. Actually if you recommend it to someone the seller will give you and your friend a $5 cash back. I would list my email to take advantage of this, but I don't believe amazon would let me do it, ha!. Oh well. I hope this review helps someone, this camera is so cute I don't understand how there are not more reviews on it.
I will try and take pictures one of these days, maybe I'll be able to get a few good ones to upload here.
Digital camera Review: JUNK
Summary: 1 Stars
All you need to do is read the title. It looks to be good but as soon as i turn it on it knocks out my wireless router, cell phone cut off, IMAC started to restart. No joke i have never seen anything like it. Trying to send this thing backDigital camera Review: Keep Looking
Summary: 1 Stars
We have been thru 4 cameras so far and still looking.
Video quality on this was great.
Audio was non-existant.
Not feasbile to carry around an audio monitor to hear the baby too.
Can not attest to hooking a 2nd up (which was our plan) b/c we never got that far. Interference is a real problem. We sit on over an acre and get our neighbors survellaince cameras on one of the channels....
We are returning another video monitor to Buy Buy Baby (had to manually switch between rooms) and picking up another 2 at Bed, Bath and Beyond today. As we are learning...buy it some place that is easy to return.
Digital camera Review: Love the Flexibility of the Camera
Summary: 5 Stars
We had been looking for a good baby monitor that we could use that had both video and audio. The feature that really caught my eye was the ability of the "Dancing Daisy" to clip on to just about anything and its ability to `flex' to allow just about any viewing angle. I have not found another product like this. We ordered the product for this feature alone - not to mention that it comes with the larger 2.5" screen which was an added bonus.
Shipping was quick - within 5 days. You will need to email them to let them know which color you like. Product is well thought out. Some features I was happily surprised to see where a rechargeable Li-battery for the receiver which is a nice touch. A/V outputs, and even a small earphone that you can attach to the receiver unit. Even the receiver had a little easel type back (similar to a picture frame) that allowed it to sit upright on a table was a nice touch. They clearly thought things out with this product. The package came with everything you needed to use the system immediately which always makes me happy.
Installation/setup was a snap and the adjustable `flex' neck of the flower worked excellent. For us it allowed us to clip the camera right onto the crib and then adjust the camera however we wanted. The added night-light was a great touch. This put a very nice soft light directly into the crib - enough to use at night but not too bright that it would wake the baby.
The only drawback for us was the audio. We had limited success with the audio and got interference when we moved too far away from the camera. I contribute this to our wireless router and other devices that are running in close proximity causing some distortion (neighbors wireless, etc.) However video continued to work well so we could still use the unit and just turn down the volume. In comparison we have experienced this same problem with other models we have tried.
Overall I was very impressed with the Dancing Daisy wireless camera. It was eye pleasing in design and functionality was great. The unique base of the camera really works well and provides optimal use and performance. The picture quality was great and the handheld had a nice friendly 2.5 inch color screen which provided good image quality. The added features, such as a reachable battery for the receiver was a nice touch, and adding a little easel type feature to allow you to prop it up (so you could set it on a table to view) are nice bonuses to this product. Quality seems good on this product. Audio was the only thing that was not perfect on this otherwise excellent product. But those are contributable to outside influences and not directly related to the product itself, so I still rate this product overall great.
