Angelcare’s AC701 Digital Touch Screen Movement & Sound Baby Monitor has a myriad of useful features. The product includes a room temperature indicator, a night light and a clip that attaches the monitor to you when baby's sleeping and you’re doing chores around the house. The 2-Way Talk-Back Feature is great, allowing you to comfort your baby from a distance, and the fact that most of the controls are on the parent unit is super convenient. The under-the-mattress sensor mat is also a fantastic idea, and the ability to vary the sensitivity will be useful as baby grows and starts to move about more.

It takes a while to set up and understand the functionality of the monitor but the touch screen is a good aid, making installation (as well as general use) a lot easier. It’s not a video monitor but it’s a really effective movement and sound monitor; certainly worth the high price.
