Reviews: The Storage Options camera range gets put through its paces

imageAs I am sure you can gather it’s been a busy old month or so here at Storage Options. We have had our busiest few months ever and we are hoping to build on this with the recent launch of our camera range.

Back in October we launched them and spoke to a few bloggers to see if they could put the cameras through their paces and see what they thought. We covered a few of the earlier posts last month but here is a selection of what they had to say:

Danielle from http://www.blogbybaby.com and www.thefamilyexpress.com has written about her experiences but here are a few things she said:

The cameras have a range of 100m to pair up with the base, which I am sure is more than sufficient, unless you are lucky enough to live in a very very large house.

You can chose to have the screen with both of the cameras on it, or you can chose to have just one of the cameras on view. It is easy to change with just one button to change the view to your desired camera. The screen size is 11cm.

It will also be fantastic for me to watch Mark napping while I am in the garden too! It means that J can play LEGO in his bedroom, while I amuse my toddler downstairs. It really has made out lives so much easier!

Sarah from Supersinglemum has also been playing with a KidCam and she had a few things to say too:

I have to say the KidCam really has changed the amount of independence I can let H have, and I am sure as she grows the use of the KidCam will adapt, for instance to cover her playing in the garden imagewhile I sort the washing. I guess the benefits are endless especially as a single parent, two kids with only one set of eyes can be hard!

Adapters are available for you to use the device in the car, and also available are the BabyCam Car and BabyCam Nursery, so whatever your child monitoring needs they have something for you.

Lynley Oram from Play Pennies has also been testing out one of our products, she was testing the KidCam. Lynley comments:

I’m definitely going to be use the Kid Cam a lot. If my little one is playing with her toys in the living room, I can stick the little camera up on the shelf and keep an eye on her if I need to do something else in another room.

So don’t listen to what we say about these products, listen to the people that have tested them in their homes. If you have any questions about any of our products feel free to contact our support team on 0844 248 7191.

Independent reviews of our Child Cameras

We last mentioned our range of cameras for monitoring children on the blog back in October. The BabyCam Car, BabyCam Nursery and KidCam all aim to give parents peace of mind in a variety of settings. It’s always good to get independent feedback on products so people can read about products in real life situations, written by a person who would actually use the product.

So since October we have been doing exactly that! Claire Louise at ‘A boy with Aspergers‘, Marianne at ‘Mari’s World‘ and Kate at ‘Celebrating Mums‘ all reviewed the KidCam within their own homes and gave honest feedback about the products.

Below are a few excerpts that may be of particular interest:

‘KidCam is truly awesome, you can use it as a baby monitoring system, put it in the car to keep an eye on them little monsters in the back seat, or even watch over them as they play in separate rooms (with its spilt screen function).’

‘What I found fantastic about KidCam was it versatility! You can take it anywhere around the home, it’s so compact & extremely light weight, yet it does all it promises and more! Another top feature was the spilt screen, meaning you can watch two children playing in different areas at the one time (one in their bedroom, another in the garden)!’

‘The system also works well as a baby monitor or when introducing a child to their own bedroom for the very first time as the KidCam is fully equipped with night-vision. Since I’ve received the KidCam, I’m able to work at my desk without the constant need to get up and find out why the children are so quite (we all know when kids are too quiet, this usually means trouble)!’

‘I love the versatility of this product, it’s rechargeable and can be taken on holidays or when staying away from home. It does mean I can get on with my ironing whilst they play in the garden which I don’t have a direct view of so this product will allow them to have a little more ‘freedom’ and me to be able to get on with the tiresome chores of housework freeing up time to spend with my girls later maybe to make some more biscuits? ‘

‘We are at the stage now where the girls will often go off to their bedroom on their own or are happy to play in the garden for a short period without me having to be there and this is marvellous for me as it means I needn’t drop what I’m doing to have to go with them. However there is always that thought at the back of my mind, will they fight? hurt themselves? Are they up to mischief? In danger? and before I know it I have stopped what I’m doing and gone to have a look just for peace of mind! Kidcam is the perfect solution, it’s like an advanced baby monitor!’

‘What we liked was how easy the thing was to set up in the first place with an instruction manual written in plain English.’

‘Overall, Kid Cam is a compact and portable system that makes keeping your children safe and supervised a breeze in the car, home or garden. We were highly impressed.’

Parents Rest Easy: Innovative New Range Of Baby Monitors Launched For The Home, Garden And Car

Leading CCTV and surveillance vendor Storage Options, has launched an innovative new range of easy-use ‘Baby Cam’ monitors, giving parents much-needed reassurance that their babies or toddlers are safe and secure, whether it’s in the car, the home, or even the garden.

BabyCam Car is a specialist baby back seat monitoring system, developed to help parents avoid the potentially-dangerous need to turn around and check on their children whilst driving – a habit, which according to research,  puts them at a much higher risk of having a car accident.*

Working much like a Sat Nav, parents simply attach a compact wireless camera to the side rear window to get a clear view of their baby and to transmit a high-quality video picture to a display attached to their windscreen. The system is extremely easy to use and comes equipped with a host of useful features including night vision, a built in rechargeable battery with four hour life, as well as versatile window suction mounts.

BabyCam Nursery is designed for the home, and is equipped with wireless camera and a large 7”, full-colour companion screen allowing mums and dads to see, hear and even talk to their baby from any room across the home, giving them constant reassurance that the baby is safe and well. Either portable or wall-mounted, the monitor is extremely easy to use and set up, and is equipped with a soothing night light function.

Finally, KidCam is a two-camera system designed for older, more adventurous children, and is ideal for keeping an eye on several of the ‘little ones’ at once. Equipped with two wireless cameras and a split-screen 4.3” companion screen, KidCam allows mums and dads to see and hear their children from any room in the house and even the garden, providing constant reassurance at a range of up to 100 metres, even at night time.

Paul Evison, marketing manager for Storage Options commented: “If there’s one area parents don’t want to compromise on, it’s in the safety of their children. This innovative range of Baby Cams has been developed following feedback and research among parents, and really offers the best surveillance technologies, adapted to family needs. All products in the range are extremely cost-effective and offer exceptional performance, making them ideal for any parents wanting that added piece of mind.”

Storage Options offers a wide range of surveillance technology products for home and business use. With an aim of making the installation of surveillance equipment as simple as possible, all products are supplied with a clearly-written and annotated manual and backed by a local-rate technical support phone line serviced by experts based in the UK.

  • *According to a study commissioned by Esure Insurance, 31% of drivers have had an accident or near miss due to passenger distraction. According to Accident Solicitors JMW, parents travelling with children in the back are statistically at even higher risk of being distracted and causing a car accident
