My monitor screen and camera decided to not connect to each other. I reached out to the customer service. They were very responsive. After few methods to fix the connection, they replaced both items for me even though both of items were out of warranty for 11 months. Very happy with their customer service. My friends recommended the non-wifi camera to monitor our baby’s sleep. Never disappointed. demi.l · influenster.com
