How do they work?
What are the pros and cons?
I am thinking about buying one that you can have two monitors and see two rooms at once and was wondering how many people prefer it.

Congrats on baby #2!
I couldn't live with out my video monitor!! I have the Summer Infant Day & Night Handheld Color Video Monitor. The picture is so clear both at night and during the day. I love being able to check on my baby with out waking her. I don't even have to get out of bed unless she really needs me! I think if I only had the audio, I would have been getting up a lot more often to investigate every sound, especially during the first few months. The handheld part has a button on top so you can turn off the video screen if the light bothers you at night. Then if you hear something you feel you need to check on, simply click the button and the video comes back on. I read the reviews for this product. Many people say they could not get a signal. I never had a problem. I also read that they can interfere with wi-fi. My husband is a web developer... he never would have allowed wi-fi interference!
I highly recommend this monitor to all my friends. The only con I can think of is that I have had to change the channel due to static. Seriously, it's a flick of a button and I've had to do it maybe 3 times in 7 months. No biggie! I know you can get an extra camera for this monitor, but I don't need one yet. Here is what one person commented: "We bought a second camera to go with the monitor we already had. I love being able to switch back and forth between my two kids' rooms. Only issue is if the monitor is too close to one camera, you can have interference when trying to check on the other one."

Fuzzy baby monitors.. normal?
youbet-its
Are baby monitors supposed to sound really fuzzy? I thought maybe I just had the monitor out of range, but i tried it right in his bedroom next to the other one and it still did it.. also I am sure it is on the right channel.
Answer
Our baby monitor is three years old and gets fuzzy occasionally. I think it's the the end of the cord that plugs into the monitor. If we take it out and put it back in, it usually works. We got some gift money for our baby, who is due in November, we're going to put that aside for a new one, as we will probably quit using it with our three-year-old. However, he'll be rooming with me or us for several months after he is born.
When our monitor has its fuzzy moments, and it's not getting unfuzzy, I just make sure I can hear noises from her bedroom to hear her. (Also, her bedroom is over the living room where I sit while she is napping and I can generally hear her through the floor/ceiling.)
