Oricom Secure895 5" Video Baby Monitor

Camera doesn't go down far enough.
Battery only good for around 5 hrs.
If you use the lullabies the sound on the monitor is deafening so you have to mute it which defeats the purpose.
The monitor charger is a silly design that we've found damages the unit as it only fits in one way and in the middle of the night when it's dark and your tired becomes an issue.
Picture quality isn't great especially in low light.

The only way you can have this setup for more than one child/room is to have it on the scan mode to flick every 15 seconds back and forth.
I don't believe this is safe as what if you miss something in the other room during the scan time. I am really really disappointed as I have spent a large sum of money on this and too anxious to put my newborn in her room.

Perfect coverage of the room, you can manoeuvre itto suit where you child is within the cot, also has motion detection.
The audio and image quality are great
Very reliable
Easy set up
Only down fall to the device is when trying to mount the device so you can see your child there is no where you can attach to wall/crib your only real option is to have a table etc nearby

Stopped working 5 months after we got it due to the charging in the parent unit. Used it until we couldn’t no more, got a replacement and within 2 months the same thing has happened. Wouldn’t recommend this product to anyone. Customer service at oricom was good but don’t have the time to keep sending back faulty monitor and paying for delivery cost to return.

We are now on to our second one after the shop blamed user error the first time. The second one now only 5 months old has about a week to go until it is also worthless. I sent an email to Oricom support after reading the reviews to give them a chance but after a response asking for proof of purchase we have not heard back. Please buy a different brand and save yourself the headaches.

Not satisfied with the product at all. Had the camera replaced due to it stopping panning within a few months and now the replacement won’t pan. The monitor wouldn’t charge properly and the cable falls out. Now it won’t charge at all and only works when plugged in = nightmare. So unreliable and disappointing

Only ever received one power cable with the unit, which we assumed was meant to be shared between the camera and the parent unit. Apparently we were meant to have received two cables, and the cable we've been using has damaged the parent unit and it will not charge. After lodging claim, Oricom offered to fix the parent unit, but will not supply the second cable that was never included in the first place! They said we should have read the instruction guide and we should have known a cable was missing. But really who reads an instruction guide fo...

Terrible audio, sound can barely be heard!I can’t comment on range as we are in a very small unit. no sounds to the motion alarm only a red message appears

We owned this system for about 3 months until the screen's USB port wore out from every day use and would no longer charge.

To be honest, it's pretty disappointing quality for the price (even though Oricom is an Australian company and the price will understandably be higher)

HOWEVER, the customer service was great. Oricom gave us a replacement unit the same day (via baby bunting) and we chose to upgrade to the SC870.

Pros:
- Decent range, never had an issue inside the house (medium side 3-bedroom house)
- OK battery life - it would last most of the night. Iusually had to plug it in to charge in the early morning
- OK screen, it was clear and legible in most situations...

Camera stopped panning after a month. Googled to troubleshoot and found countless others with the same problem. Wouldn’t offer refund. Only replacement. When I asked if I could get a refund if the second camera fails I was told I was outside the purchase warranty for a refund (I purchased on sale in Nov 2019, baby born was in January 2020, we only started to use the Camera in May when baby moved to the cot.) I wish I had read the reviews prior to purchase.

I purchased this monitor for quite a lot of money, and the charging port at the back of the monitor has broken after only 4 weeks of being used. Oricom refuse to replace it even when under warranty. Very poor quality and horrible costumer service.

Video monitor quality is absolutely average and that's about the most useful thing in this product. It does the job - you can see that your child is still in the room but movement lags and view of your child is very blurry.

Onto the parent unit. Firstly, the charger for the parent unit never worked from the moment I took it out of the box. I called Oricom and they sent out a new charger. It's now broken again after three charges. Trying to call Oricom this time has been unsuccessful, put through to voicemail twice after holding for 15mins each...

We've had intermittent issues with this product where the receiver just doesn't receive a decent signal from the camera and all we hear is a loud crackling of static.
Stupidly we decided to purchase a second camera seeing as we already had the other one. Well the second camera won't even show a picture...the room is only 4 metres from where we are and we can't even get a signal. Absolute rubbish product and the fact that they are allowed to sell it at that price is a disgrace.
Save your money and look elsewhere. I wish we did.

UPDATE 10/4/2020

While I’d still say that the visual component of this baby monitor is unparalleled and absolutely phenomenal for a wriggly kid - I’m sorry to report the audio is abysmal on the parenting unit. It just cuts out willy nilly, mid cry, mid conversation..

I contacted Oricom and their customer service was great, they sent me a replacement immediately for which I was grateful.
However the replacement did the exact same thing.
I moved the parent unit around the house to make sure the signal somehow wasn’t being disrupted in our (very...

This monitor has caused more stress than good. We are already onto our second monitor as the parent screen charger has stopped working. Tonight our new monitor has just stopped charger through the night and the screen has gone flat. Oricom make it very difficult to get a refund or exchange and instead ask questions like are you using the correct charging port and try to make it your fault that the product is faulty.
