Five stars for the product, no stars at all for BT's customer support.
The product is great - I've owned a cheaper baby monitor and it wasn't worth having because of interference. This one has all the features you need and you don't have to listen to buzzing all evening!
But... the one I bought was faulty - the mute feature wouldn't turn off (intermittently) so the baby yelled and we heard nothing. BT offer an email support service which they simply ignore and a helpline number which (while free - they've changed it from 0870: good!) isn't answered within any reasonable time. So buy the product, check it works (took us 2 weeks to be sure ours didn't) and be comforted by the fact that Amazon has a great returns process ... Read More:
I like this toy, but I think I like it more than my 10 month old daughter. She dosent mind it, but you don't see it very much of it from under neath a layer of bubbles. I also though it would bigger, its only about 15 cm long. (But I didn't read specs prior to buying)

THESE TOYS ARE FROM GOLDEN BEAR - THEY'RE GOOD, IF YOU HAVE A CHARLIE AND LOLA FAN, WHICH I DO! THEY ONLY SAY ONE PHRASE EACH - CHARLIE SAYS "I HAVE THIS LITTLE SISTER LOLA SHE IS SMALL AND VERY FUNNY", LOLA SAYS "IM NOT SMALL IM BIG"....AND THTAS IT ...I WOULD HAVE PREFERRED THEM TO SAY MORE PHRASES FOR THE PRICE. THE BATTERIES ARE IRREPLACEABLE (LAST 6 MONTHS) AND THEIR CLOTHES ARE FIXED, THE SOUND DEVICE IS ALSO TOO HARD TO PRESS FOR A 3 YEAR OLD. OKAY BUT COULD HAVE DONE BETTER
OK like many of these bath toys they are good fun and can keep you playing in the bath with the kid(s) for ages.
But a note of caution!
When finished playing with them in the water make sure you empty out the water from these things.
As over time mould will build up inside of them and you see little dark spots inside. If the child puts them to their mouths and squirts of sucks from them like most will do then these mould spots will be swallowed.
They also will appear in the bath water as I have discovered.
We bought this for our 2 and a half years old girl when i was in hospital having our 2nd child. Her wee brother gave it to her as a gift to say "hello". She couldn't of been any happier. She is a Fifi fan-but i wouldn't say Fifi was her favourite (she prefers Dora) but still she pays with this cottage EVERY day. The characters are fantastic!! It features all the characters from the programme- Fifi, Bumble, Violet, etc. Her imagination has certainly progressed since getting this from her wee brother!! She loves making them all take turns at the cooker or in the hamock. I do agree with some other reviewers that the door falls off easily but it can be put on no problem. I did remove certain items such as the plates and cups as i felt they were just ... Read More:
We have had an egg for a couple of years now. Our daughters bedroom is subject to extreme temp changes and we needed to be able to see what the temperature was in the dark. The egg seemed to be the perfect solution, and it has been. It has a lovely glow as a night light, and it has always been accurate enough to warn us when we need to open her windows (summer time!) or put extra blankets over her (sometimes her room becomes so cold that we have to put the heating on in the middle of the night!).
If you live in a modern home with proper central heating and insulation, then you probably don't really need a bedroom thermometer (or perhaps you'll be one of these people worrying about a thermometer being one or two degrees out!), but if you are worried that ... Read More:

i got this for 9.99 on sale, and yes its big and plasticky but it works fine. i don't know what people expect to get for this price really....
in my house it does get a bit of buzzy interferance but its so sensitive i can almost always hear baby breathing and you can have it turned down in front of you and watch the lights for action.
i would happily get another one for my parents house.
don't know how the other person managed to have a faulty charger as i doesn't have a charger, just a mains adaptor.
oh, and you do sometimes pick up other monitors/phones so if you are nosey its great, although they can probably hear you talking to your baby like a mentalist too...!
