Is the VTech VM919HD Worth It?

Best big-screen non-WiFi monitor. If you want to see the crib in detail from the sofa, the VTech's big 1080p screen is unmatched among non-WiFi monitors. It is heavier and dropped signal more than the smaller units, which kept it behind the DXR-8 and eufy.

VTech VM919HD Pros & Cons
