"5.0 out of 5 stars" - Update: I purchased this in July of 2024 for my October 2024 baby. It has been used nightly since November 2024. It is now January 2026 and I had my first issue with the sock. It disconnected from Bluetooth and would not reconnect no matter the troubleshooting steps I took. I had to contact Owlet support and the first person I spoke to was very unhelpful and told me I just needed to buy a new sensor (for an additional $130+) and that really ticked me off. I contacted support again and the second person I spoke to was extremely helpful, had me send pictures, tried to actually assist me and then when it failed, escalated the situation to a higher up who ended up approving a replacement sensor for free. I have yet to receive it as this took place on Friday and it is now Sunday so we will see soon if I do receive it and how connection goes, but so far I am still happy with the product and the customer service I received the 2nd time around and I will still recommend this to new moms who need the peace of mind like I did/do as I never had issues with false readings, and it has always been accurate for me. For almost 15mos of continuous use without any major issues till now, I am pleased.Absolutely love this product. It has SAVED my sanity. Baby girl has worn it every night for almost 8mos. Never had a false reading, is accurate for light and deep sleep as well as her pulse. Unsure about accuracy of oxygen as there isn’t a secondary way to measure that easily, but I’m assuming it’s just as accurate as the pulse is. I wouldn’t sleep without it being on her. Knowing my baby girl is safe, and if she wasn’t I’d get a notification and alarm sound is so reassuring and I’m not up all night watching her breathe. Would totally recommend to any mama.
"1.0 out of 5 stars" - I was unable to get the app to connect originally, customer service is good though and they were able to help. The 3 stars really comes down to the poor range. It says up to 100 ft but I’ve had this disconnect 5ft from the base station. Nothing like trying to change a poopy diaper or calm a screaming baby and having this stupid thing start beeping every 30 seconds to push you over the edge. The fine print says some things about how it will struggle to read if the babies feeding??? So it’ll go off then too and you have to take it off or turn it off every time you do that unless you want it to screen. Like a Fitbit that doesn’t work when you’re drinking, the base station thing is a flaw alone, but the connection issues are terrible. Also the base station has a battery but only enough battery life to yell at you that it’s unplugged. If the connection is so terrible and I have to carry this around my home atleast give it significant battery life.Update: 2:30am some day in dec 2025, losing track of time. I’m 2 ft away from it trying to get my baby to go to sleep and it’s going off, I’m throwing this out a f*****g window. Down to one starUpdate Dec 27,2025: well I haven’t thrown it out a window yet. I have been doing a lot of thinking. This item will be great…if I ever develope an arch nemesis in my life and they have a baby and I need to slowly make them lose their mind. Most recently I was up at 3am trying to get baby to fall asleep. Took baby to a separate room, I have a small house so every room is less then 100 ft away. Forgot to take the base station with me. Somehow the connectivity heavens opened up and the base station stayed quiet. So it didn’t wake my wife which was great. Baby fell asleep so took baby back to our room. Put baby in the bassinet. Lay my head to go to sleep, base station goes off with connectivity issues, wife’s awake, babies awake I’m awake. Beautiful. This kind of stuff is a regular occurrence. The only reason we still have it is because it gives my lovely wife peace of mind. But It may just make me lose mine. Still one star.Update: Dec 31st: base station is on rice, I did not drop it in water on purpose. Crying baby was taking him to another room to sleep, was thirsty so grabbed my water cup to take with me, two steps out the door, base station reminds me I forgot it with its great beeping. Hurry in to grab it and take it with me to the other room. We have two plugs for it now seeing as you have to move it but don’t want to crawl under the bed where our plug is. So unplug it grab my water cup again cause I haven’t had a drink yet. Head to other room with yelling base station, crying baby, thirsty dad. Attempt to press the base station to silence that and atleast have a little peace. Somehow plops right into my water cup. Cups perfect size to where I can’t grab it so run to sink dumb it. Impressively enough, it’s still yelling at me and working. Part of me hopes it dies, other part of me hopes it survives so my wife doesn’t want to spend another 300 DOLLARS. Oh yea no base stations are individually available for purchase from them. Adding to the dumbness. Will update if it survivesUpdate: Jan what’s today? 2026Base station survived on rice for 48 hours, dried out and still works unfortunately. I have made peace with it. I must have prayed for patience at some point so God sent me this to test it. There’s a reason for everything right? I am smarter than the torchers who invented this, I have plugged it into a battery back that comes with me everywhere. It’s like I have two babies now, my other one just cries less. But it works, might get it a little carry bag to go along with its new battery. Recommendation to the creators, on iteration 5or 6 of this thing, whatever you’re on, and if you read these, which I suspect you don’t. GGIVE THE BASE STATION ITS OWN BATTERY SO YOU CAN TAKE IT AROUND THE HOUSE and or make the range an actual 100ft not 100 inches. Thanks, and thanks for helping me become a more patient man through the testing of it. Might update again in the future. We’ll see. Staying one star.Update from Jan 22nd 4am: finally had the clarity of mind to take a picture for some proof in case anybody really needed it. My hand is on babies foot that has the owlet on it, base station is quite literally 3ft or less away. Placement on the foot was textbook. In a world of 5G ultra extra awesome, WiFi 8 billion, and elonian space internet, the connection problems this 300 dollar peace of equipment experiences is astoundingly terrible. To put it in perspective, a base starlink, which connects to things in space cost 199. This thing is 300 dollars and can’t connect to its base station 3ft away, my AirPods will stay connected to my phone from my room to my garage prbly a football field distance… Update on my patience: become more patient for sure, but this thing is my arch nemesis now so I will continue to fight it the only way I can…in this review…Update Feb 2026: the more I think about this thing the more bitter I get. Had a night where it just decided to not connect all night. Frankly I think baby slept better without it on. Now I’m wondering if this whole time it bothered her foot. Convinced this device is only to prey on worried people. Not going to actually help you with anything especially when it’s unreliable as it is. Another exhausting night of no help from the owlet. I just hope this has prevented people from buying this. You don’t need it, your baby will be okay. Anxiety is normal, especially for first time parents. your baby is going to sleep on you all day anyway. You’ll have less stress without this.
