Review: Excellent product for my particular monitoring use - I use the VTech DM221 to monitor a 93-year-old with mobility and hearing disabilities, although he is generally still surprisingly agile and moves about the house between bedroom and bathroom. Using two sets of DM221 I can monitor both locations simultaneously and track him continuously when he moves about with hearing acuity approaching that of the cat which follows him around. The price point for these sets makes this a feasible approach. However, under the current technology configuration, monitors from different sets cannot be linked to the same parent unit unfortunately. Why? Having two parent units side by side presents no major problems however and, given the sensitivity of the monitors over a wide range, ensures continuous tracking within and between various locations. I found no issues at all with the range of transmission so I can take a parent unit with me into the yard or basement of the house without losing sound quality or sensitivity. The quality of the reception within the wide parameters claimed by the manufacturer is extremely good. You can literally hear a pin drop at any location/room and it is so sensitive that it sometimes picks up extraneous sounds from the adjacent street. At times I've heard that darn cat purring at a particular location when the animal must be at least 1.5-2.5 metres from the monitor. A person's normal breathing can easily be heard with monitor placed a minimum of 1m from the source. If these sounds become too much, just turn down the sensitivity on the monitor or the volume on the parent unit. VOX sensitivity level can be adjusted across 5 settings. Having a monitor that does not require the person being monitored to press buttons or even to speak (all sounds, normal and unusual, can be heard clearly) is a great comfort since a sudden stroke or accident may leave the monitored person unable to communicate verbally. With this monitor, allowing that you are attentive and able to interpret sudden and unusual changes in behaviour and patterns of sound, you will not miss a thing. I would have preferred to buy a 2-unit monitor set with a single parent unit to facilitate this configuration but only a 2-parent/single monitor set is available. Why? I normally cannot be in two places at once (although that feat is quite often necessary) and if I need to I can simply move the parent unit to a second location, with or without AC power connected. I can use the parent unit without AC on battery power which is sufficient to last at least overnight without AC power. (The monitor is permanently connected to power so no battery issues there. The parent unit should be connected to AC power most of the time to make sure the battery pack is fully charged and ready for mobile use). There must be different battery packs for different models to the DM221 or otherwise comments about lack of battery life on desertcart are just wrong. Australian customers must buy separate AC power plug adapters which are very cheaply and quickly available on desertcart AU. The units are compact, light-weight, durable plastic (although I wouldn't try a drop from a height) with fairly simple menu controls and the possibility to monitor sounds visually as well as aurally by observing LED sensors on the parent unit which register the strength of the source. The parent unit can be used to talk to the monitored person and, in my case, even if the deaf nonagenarian cannot determine exactly what is being said he does register the fact that you are there and attentive. The sound quality is so good that occasionally he understands simple messages such as "breakfast/dinner coming" and that is totally amazing given the quality of his remaining hearing capacity. There might be monitors on the market which could resolve a couple of the issues I've presented for my needs/configuration, but this product serves my purposes extremely well, most especially in terms of sensitivity to sounds on the monitor side and sound reception quality on the parent unit side. If your needs are similar, just buy it. It works perfectly well under Australian conditions.
Review: Great Baby Monitor - We had our first set for 8 years before the battery started going out. This is our second set, and it works great. Has long range, easy to use, and great battery life.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can the two parent units be used to communicate with one another? (Like a walkie talkie so parents can talk without being heard on the baby unit?)**
A: Great IDEA for a feature, but as far as I'm aware, the "baby unit" is always in the communication loop.  However, as I think about this, it might be possible to lower the volume on the baby unit to the point it can't be heard in the nursery so the parents COULD talk on the other 2 units.  It's late tonight, but I'll check this theory out for you sometime tomorrow & re-edit this answer so we'll know for sure.  ***stay tuned***  -----------Update 7/23/13:  Checked for you this morning & unfortunately, the "baby" unit's LOWEST volume level is still audible.  So, no, you can't communicate between the two "parent" units without the "baby" unit broadcasting the sound.  Even though you can talk to one another, "baby" can always hear.  Hope that helped you!

**Q: If I buy two of these (2 baby units/4 parent units) will they all work together?  One baby unit in each child's room, parent units spread around home.**
A: I would think so, but I'm not sure.  Unless you can put them on different channels, you wouldn't know which kid was making the noise.  I wouldn't buy these again anyway.  The parent unit frequently loses the signal from the baby unit and makes an annoying beeping sound.  It's frustrating when that's what wakes you up in the middle of the night.

**Q: Has anyone tried this across two separate buildings? My mother has dementia and lives in a cottage just 10 feet next to our house. She has fallen, forgot that she has a Lifeline, and just yells out to me (fortunately she got up ok that time). She keeps her TV on all the time so I am also wondering whether we would hear…**
A: Was caregiver for in laws had 2 of these front of house living room and bedroom could hear them talking ALL the time even over the very load radio I live in a house that's about 500 ft from them have recommended these to anyone taking care of the elderly hospice has even recommend them to others after seeing how mine worked just be prepared they pick up EVERYTHING

**Q: Does parent units have separate power adapters?  So that I can set them plugged in, always on, without having to worry about charging every night?**
A: Yes they do - that is exactly how we use the parent units - always powered on using their wall adapters.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Baby Monitor
*by A***R on March 10, 2026*

We had our first set for 8 years before the battery started going out. This is our second set, and it works great. Has long range, easy to use, and great battery life.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can hear my baby breathing!
*by A***U on February 2, 2026*

Our baby is 13 months old, and this monitor set is still working perfectly. It’s always been easy to use and easy to set up. The microphone is optimized to pick up bay sounds, so it filters out most of the lullaby music that we put on at bedtime, but we can still clearly hear her breathing. We took this set with us on a cruise in August, and we left the parent unit in the room with the grandparents (right next to our cabin) so that they could keep tabs on her while we went out on the ship at night. It worked beautifully between through the cabin walls. We have purchased more sets for my parents’ house and my husband’s parents’ house. We absolutely love this little, hassle-free, inexpensive monitor set!
