Great Features, but Limited Lifespan

LIke others have said, this has a short lifespan. At just under one year of use, the power cord stopped functioning. VTech was of no assistance because the 1 year warranty was up, seeing as I purchased the monitor about one month prior to my baby being born. Luckily, it charges on a typical micro USB charger, so we got another year of use out of it by charging it with random extra phone chargers around the house. And now I'm stuck with a parent unit that will not charge at all, and I have to figure out how much I want to spend on a replacement to be able to watch a 2 year old and a 4 year old... However, for the years that it was functional, it was a great monitor. Love the big screen, the range was great - I could go into the backyard about 200 ft from baby's room and still have clear video & audio. LOVE the talkback feature. Battery would last about 6 hours on a charge. I will say that the thermometer part was off by a few degrees, but that wasn't important to me. Shame that it didn't last longer...
