Feedback, Reviews and Ratings of Customers

 
The iBaby Monitor M2 has received an average customer rating of 3.3 out of 5. It’s not the best rating, and it’s not difficult to understand why. Although it has many benefits, it also has some weaknesses, which made some of the parents who reviewed this product down-rate it. This is what customers have thought about the iBaby M2:

  • Setting up the device is very easy. Most of the parents who have reviewed this video monitor thought it was easy to install. The instructional manual is a few pages long, which was great, in the opinion of some parents, and not so great in the opinion of others. Those who thought it wasn’t that good said that it was way to simple, and not clear enough in the explanations.
  • Great quality picture. Most parents agreed that the video quality is amazing, both day and night, which is a big advantage, because it gives you just enough peace of mind to be able to sleep like a baby yourself. Don’t imagine it’s military night vision quality, but you’ll be able to determine whether your child is asleep or not, so you can quickly intervene when and if the case demands your intervention.
  • Easy to move around. The device sits on a magnetic base, so you can move it around easily from one room to the other. Most parents thought this feature to be extremely helpful.

Cons

The reason why it received such a mediocre rating is because it has some shortcomings, that quite made the difference for some parents. One of the most mentioned weaknesses was the charging cord. Because the battery runs out after approximately 2 hours, you will have to connect the cable. This is when some parents experienced some difficulties. The cord is pretty short, which means that you will not be able to wall-mount it and connect the cable (this depends a lot on how high you intend to mount it).

Conclusion

 
All in all, the iBaby Video Monitor M2 is a pretty helpful product, despite having some shortcomings. If you’re really not sure, you can always check out our review of the iBaby M6, which is an overall better video monitor from iBaby Labs.
