Let me start off this review by saying this is my 2nd kiddo and I have never owned a device like this with my 1st. This camera/monitor however has been a game changer! I would recommend it to any 1st time or 8th time mom. It has really given me peace of mind with my 2nd kiddo. There are so many things changing in the baby world. We are constantly being told to do this and not that anymore. Things that were once deemed safe are no longer "safe" to do. This time around with my 2nd kiddo I became less confident in not only myself but baby products. With a 6yr gap between my 1st and 2nd kiddo I was starting over again. However, this is the 2nd time I have purchased this unit. 3rd time purchasing a Do Honest camera/monitor. I now have 1 in each of my vehicles, the first one was purchased over a year ago. Which is the previous model. The 1st time I purchased this model was 10 months ago and this model is definitely an upgrade. Not only does it show in quality but also in value. We installed the previous version in our Chevy Duramax, 7in version in a Ford Maverik, and 7in version in a Subaru Forester. From the first model, this one is definitely an upgrade! This one comes with a much bigger viewing screen, clearer picture, and great night time visibility. This camera is very easy to install and does not require anything more than power from your vehicle. I love how long the cable is. I was able to run it under the trim of my vehicles making the cable invisible, secure, and child safe. All of our vehicles have cable left over that could easily reach a 3rd row vehicle. It is thin enough to tuck away under the trim and or tie off and tuck away to make it completely safe. This camera can easily be turned off when it is not needed with the push of a button if you are using the charging port or unplugged if you are using the USB port plug. Well worth the money, I recommend getting the upgrade from the previous version due to the screen size alone. I am easily able to keep an eye on both my 10 month old and 6yr old in the backseat when needed. I did stick the adhesive mount to my dash on all of my vehicles vs on the window like others have done. I have no complaints about it staying in place and my son is 10 months old. It hasn't budged. I am able to easily remove the viewing screen when visiting "not the greatest neighborhoods" which is another plus for me. No broken windows for a baby monitor screen. I can honestly say this is still my favorite "registry/baby purchase" 10 months later. Read more
As parents of a rear-facing baby, our stress levels on car rides have been drastically reduced thanks to the DoHonest 7-Inch Baby Car Camera. Simply put: we absolutely love it! Being able to see our son clearly and consistently throughout the entire journey has made driving so much easier and far less distracting. The primary benefit of this system is the unparalleled peace of mind. The 7-inch HD 1080P display gives us a fantastic, clear view of the back seat, day or night (thanks to the clear night vision). We no longer have to crane our necks or rely on tiny, reflective mirrors. Knowing he's happy, awake, or simply taking a nap is instant and effortless. Beyond the excellent visual quality, the ease of setup is a massive selling point. The "Plug and Play" promise holds true, and the simple installation means we've been able to easily move the entire system to a different vehicle when needed, which is a huge convenience for families with multiple cars. This camera is truly a game-changer. We love it so much that we are planning to purchase a second unit soon so that both our primary vehicles can be permanently equipped. The ultimate testament to its quality is that we recently bought another one to give as a baby shower gift to a friend- it’s the perfect present for new parents. If you’re looking for a reliable, clear, and easy-to-use baby car camera that offers true peace of mind on the road, look no further. This one is highly, highly recommended! Read more
We love this camera! Good quality video! And definitely is amazing to watch you little in the back! Super easy to move to car to car as well! Definitely good for the price! Read more
Love love love this camera. It’s a little bigger than it needs to be, but I can see my baby well day or night. In newer cars, the USB plug in is nice to have. I was confused on the straps at first, but when I watched the video it made way more sense and was super easy to put together. I would absolutely recommend this camera to others. It would make a great baby shower gift. Read more
Amazing. Works great super easy to set up! When I brought my baby home from the hospital she turned blue twice. I knew I needed some way to monitor her while also driving. Glad I purchased!value and picture quality is great! Read more
The media could not be loaded. Great camera for keeping an eye on the little one so you don’t have to use/move mirrors or keep looking back. Really helps with peace of mind at night with the night vision (that mirrors don’t have!). It has a really long cord so you can put it where you need it in any vehicle. We just use the twist tie to keep some of the cord contained in our sedan and we can let more out when we put it in our SUV. Our son kept messing with the cord when he was little so we ran it underneath the floor mats in our SUV. The power button is also nice so you don’t have to unplug it every time. We love that you can change the brightness of the screen and mirror and flip the image (our old one didn’t do any of that!). You are also able to change contrast, color, zoom (though we don’t find much difference), and language. We found the straps to be a little hard to figure out but with lots of trial and error we were able to. On one the Velcro straps, the Velcro started tearing off the elastic strap and is almost unusable after the first installation with all the adjusting. Though if you hold the Velcro tight and are gentle the problem can be avoided (part of the trial and error). It also came with a cord to plug into a cigarette lighter and a cord to plug into a USB port so we can use it in our old vehicles and in our newer vehicles that have USB ports. We also love the larger 7-inch screen. Over all a very nice camera! Read more
