According to our baby monitor expert
The Alecto DVM-750 is a baby monitor and projector in 1. The parent unit has a 9cm touchscreen. Just as with your phone, all you have to do is tap and swipe to use the next function. You can read the room temperature on the large display, so you'll know immediately if it's too hot or cold in the nursery. You can set a feeding timer, so you no longer need to think about it. To soothe your child, you can turn on the projector. With 1 tap on the display, your baby can enjoy a ceiling full of beautiful, moving images. As children are prone to rolling around in their sleep, another useful feature of this baby monitor is that you can rotate the camera to any angle. You can also zoom in on the image to see your little one a bit closer up if you wish. The image is also clear in the dark, which is useful if you want to check on your child at night.
A battery-powered baby monitor is similar to a smartphone that runs out when you're playing a movie. The battery life is limited.Camera observation | ||

There are baby monitors with a better picture quality. There are baby monitors that can also stream over WiFi. If you require these features, then you better look further. But there is really no 1 baby monitor where all functions are integrated as well and in a simple, natural way as with this Alecto video baby monitor. This thing stands head and shoulders above the rest.
But it also has a (big) downside: as long as you do not touch/operate the receiver, the reception is perfect, but if you hold the receiver (which is a requirement for normal operation), the reception is almost completely lost (and the camera is 1 floor up, right above). This must be a problem with the antenna in the device. If Alecto can solve this, they have made the perfect baby monitor in my opinion. But until then, this could be a deal-breaker for many peopleā¦

Because our old baby monitor no longer worked with regard to charging, we went looking for a new one. Very hesitant to buy one with or without a camera (due to necessity vs gadget). Because our new little one is going to sleep in the attic, we chose one with camera because then we can quickly see if there is anything without having to walk 2 flights of stairs.
Decided to go for a high-end baby monitor (especially considering the price). Installation was very easy and menu is also easy to operate. Because our baby is only 2 weeks old, she still sleeps in our bedroom (1st floor) and soon she will go to her own room in the attic. However, after a few hours of use, the connection already dropped (no contact between baby and parent unit). Perhaps coincidence. But a few hours later again no contact and contact was not restored. If this problem already occurs on the 1st floor, I don't even want to know if it is in the attic. I estimate the distance between parent and baby unit to be a maximum of 10 meters (we live in an ordinary house and certainly not large, no metal ceilings or anything like that).
At this price it is unsalvageable that this problem occurs over such a short distance and neither does the Alecto brand. Very disappointed and I really can't recommend the product (unless you sleep in the same room as your baby).

Easy to operate and very complete baby monitor with many extra options. I find the built-in light very useful, my daughter has some trouble getting to sleep, so a light should always remain on. You can not only switch off the light remotely, but also set a timer, which is super handy! The included docking/charger is also very nice, you don't have to plug it in every time.
