Go for it if you...
You want the lowest hacking risk at a very low price
You are happy with a listen-only monitor and do not need video
You want something dead-simple with no app, no account, and no subscription
You want a monitor that works through a home internet outage
You want a non-WiFi video camera with the feed kept off the internet
You want a sound-activated eco mode to quiet the signal when the room is calm
You want a monitor that keeps working through a home internet outage
You do not want a monthly subscription
The main thing to know
It has no rest mode, so unlike a hibernation-capable monitor it keeps transmitting all night even when the room is silent, though the analog signal it sends is very low to begin with.
No independent lab has published a measured emission figure for this exact model, so its low-emission claim rests on how it works rather than a third-party reading.
Skip this if you...
You want the monitor to go silent on the airwaves when the room is quiet
You want to see your baby on a video screen
You need a model that is reliably in stock
You want the sharpest possible HD picture
You specifically want a published, independent emission measurement
You cannot mount the camera at least three feet from the crib
Neither of these quite what you're looking for?
