Vtech Baby Monitor

#gotitforfree from #hometesterclubna. #vtech #babymonitor

This came just in time as my baby is growing and moving a lot more in her crib. I can keep an eye on her when I'm away from her.

The quality of the camera is good, it's clear. The camera can be moved up and down, left and right but not that much. It has good mic and sound. Great lullabies. The night light function is good but a bit too dim even on the highest setting.

The cords are not interchangeable so you have to use both cords. Connecting to phone is a bit hard because it can only use 2.4g wifi and not 5g. We use 5g at home on our phones so changing to 2.4g is really slow. It made the monitor very laggy.

Inputting letters and numbers on the little monitor was really hard because you have to keep moving to get the letters and numbers, it's not like a cellphone where you can just type it in. It would be nice if it had a turn off function so we can shut it down when not needed. It's always on as long as its plugged in and it heats up. So just unplug it when you don't need it.

Overall, it's an ok monitor but I was expecting it to be a bit better since their other products are pretty good.

Conair Infiniti Pro Cool Air Styler Review

Got this curler for free from Home Tester Club.

The curler was good, it made nice curls. The length was right and it wasn't heavy to hold for a long time. 

The instructions on the buttons were a bit confusing. Maybe they can add pictures with the instructions. They had pictures for how to curl your hair though. 

I thought the cold air button can be placed a bit higher so it's easier to press while you are curling your hair. Maybe also have a separate button for the cold air because if you press once by accident it changes the temperature. 

The cold air function didn't really make the curl last longer but it was a little bit better and seems better for the hair after the heat. When the cold air function is on there is a light fan sound. It's not as loud as their detangle brush. 

My hair felt a bit dry after the curling. I guess I need to invest in a good hair spray/heat protector. 

Overall, it does the job, not bad.

Conair The Knot Dr Review

Got Conair the knot dr for free from Homes Tester Club. 

The product claims to detangle hair and it does. It makes my hair nice and straight. It does dry your hair but takes longer than normal hair dryers. It's not as hot as hair dryers so don't expect to dry your hair the same way. Pretty much have to turn it up to level 3 to really feel the heat. It's good in a way so you don't burn yourself or your scalp. I believe you have have press on the cold air button for cold air but it feels warm to me.

I'm not too sure about volumizing hair. I guess it kind of does if you comb underneath the hair? I've seen their other knot dr it comes with another attachment for it I think. This one did not have it.

It was easy to remove hair on the brush with the big gaps in between. I thought the gadget was quite long in size but good thing it's light or arms will feel tired. It would be nice if they made it smaller so it's easier to store and take on trips. 

I also thought it was very loud, much louder compared to a hair dryer. It's like having a vacuum cleaner right beside your ear. 

They should also use a different font colour on the packaging because it's super hard to read the white font on a light blue box. Other than that I think it's a pretty good detangle device.
