I thought this monitor was great - until it burnt my babies foot. I feel horrible now and I think it's been hurting him for a while as he's suddenly sleeping better with it off.

Used the owlet sock when my son finally came home after 3 'months in neonatal on home oxygen. I was terrified he would dessat if something went wrong with the oxygen. It gave me such peace of mind so I could go to sleep without being anxious. 4 months after being home he became unwell. I noticed his oxygen levels were under 90 and checked his chest and noticed him working hard to breathe. He was diagnosed with broncholitis at the hospital and we were discharged, the drs told me that looking at sats of my baby was not necessary at home and causes more problems. However the following night the alarm sounded and my son had started to lose colour. His oxygen dropped to 78%. I sat him up, gave him some hard pats and woke him up and his colour returned. I took him straight to a&e and explained what had happened. I don't think the drs trusted the information of the sock. I told them I did and I knew something else was wrong. It turned out part of my sons lung had collapsed due to infection. I genuinely believe this sock has potentially saved my sons life as I would have otherwise been asleep and unaware his sats were dropping to a life threatening level. Reviews like this are what made me buy the owlet in the first place. I was hoping I'd never experience anything like this but I am so grateful for this product. We have only had 2 false alarms prior to this. If you use the right size sock and place it correctly the benefits outweigh the odd possibly of a false alarm.

Happy with the sock it helps with the anxiety of sleeping with our baby. Anyway instructions of how to connect sock with base and WiFi are quite confusing don't know why.. and would be good to have them written down on paper. We struggle every night to make it work. Another issue is everytime we open the app on phone it always take a few seconds to get the readings, would be much better to get them straight away. Product is a bit expensive so I think this things should be solved. Besides that it helps us be more relaxed while sleeping with baby.

Loved that I was able to sleep peacefully. Until it no longer connecting to the WiFi to the base. I don't know what changed. My daughter will turn 2 in March. I wish I could have used it longer. Probably would not invest in the future.

We've been using the owlett for 6 months now. For what you pay for this device it is lacking usability and being able to customise alerts such as volume, parameters (heart rate and oxygen alarms are triggered very low). The base station constantly loses blue tooth connection to sock and always in the middle of the night. Can't take baby from bed room to lounge as it's too far from base station and the alerts go off till you turn it off or go closer. The app is very glitch, have to close and open it often. There's a lag when you open it waiting to see the stat's displayed. It's hard to navigate the app and to be honest there's nothing in it apart from stat's and the history graphs. The whole product needs redesigning.

When I fell pregnant with my little girl, I did not know about these devices, but when she suffered three seizures, I was looking for something that would monitor her overnight and potentially alert us. If her heart rate was too high. Oxygen level dropped, and I stumbled across this. it has given me peace of mind and my sleep back plus, the customer service is 2nd to none absolutely amazing. Thank you owlet.

Have tried setting it up for days now, it keeps failing at different stages. First the WiFi then the registering the sock now registering the base station. Terrible system, do not recommend. The FAQ and help section doesn't help at all, it just stated exactly what the app tells you to do, but I already know that's not working. Do not waste you money. For something so expensive should be alot easier to use

We've been using this product for a month or so now, and it works great. Our baby was sent home with minimal oxygen and is since not using supplemental oxygen at all. We do have the hospital pulse ox monitor though, and have compared it with this. This usually picks up better and more consistently honestly. The one caveat, and I hope to see this change now that the product is FDA approved - you really NEED to be able to modify the parameters... Or at the very least, the O2 should be 85 on the low, but really, just make them adjustable. Put in a clause or waiver you have to check off to change them to release liability, whatever it takes. That and the poll time, but that is more cumbersome. If they made the parameters adjustable, instant 5 star. If they made the poll time adjustable and could support real time (or close to) that would be BETTER than a hospital grade monitoring device for home use. 100%

This device has really helped me sleep better knowing I would be notified if my son needed me.
