    Worked fine for five months then I can only get colored bars on screen - no video. Vtech customer service sent me to a paid subscription website to troubleshoot. They wanted to charge me $40/mo to answer my questions. To get warranty, you have to have all original packaging - who keeps that?

    Worst monitor I’ve ever used. Doesn’t always have good connection to the camera and makes a terrible loud sound when connection is lost. Will be returning. Don’t waste your money just buy the Hello Baby monitor that rotates 355 degrees. Less money and more efficient.

    I am very sad to say that the VTEC did not do what it was programmed to do. Screen was shut off constantly and will receive a black screen on monitor at first it was working perfectly fine but after 15 minutes of use it just completely shut off.

    Terrible. Do not recommend whatsoever. So awkward to mount and even if you get it mounted the angle isn’t really wide enough to see much and since the actual camera part can’t move you can’t really adjust it to point where you want. Go with anything else.
