I already own this device and would like to buy a second set for my second child's room. Does anyone have 2 sets &amp; does it work without interference?

I also bought a second set for my other child's bedroom. I have not had any interference, and both are on my nightstand within a few inches of each other.

No I was never able to get two headphones to work at one time without a splitter. We actually bought cords to connect them because they worked better. The wireless aspect didn't work out for my family.

Dear Susan,It really comes down to the size of the room. This model is sold in pairs, and you need a minimum of one pair in each room. Some larger rooms (kitchen/eating area) may have use for 2 pairs. Let me know if I can be of additional assistance.Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

We had one for our daughter and added a second monitor when our son was born (so we have 2 monitors and 2 receivers). The monitors work on different channels with no interference. The best part is that we can change the channel on either of our (parent) receivers to check in on either room, one of my favorite features of this monitor. My 2nd favorite feature is the rechargeable batteries, this is rare among monitors (and baby items in general)! :) You will love it!

Hello Mr. Sampson, although I don't have knowledge about interference, however as for user friendly and as a quality device, I strongly recommend you purchasing it, well worth the money and my students love it as well.

How does it monitor 2 rooms simultaneously? Will it flip back and forth? What happens if child 2 cries while the monitor is showing child 1? Can you hear them both?

I disagree that two units work properly together. I bought a second set of these same monitors to use with our second baby and they repeatedly interact with each other and lose the link to the base. I called VTech and was told that they run on the same frequency, so this will likely continue to be a problem. I would not recommend using two at the same time.

They won't sync together where the parent unit hears both children in one unit. But we own two sets. I have one in each child room and then a parent unit for each child on the kitchen counter. They do not interfere with each other at all.

Yes you can. You can set the receivers to be on the same frequency. You can do that with any set. More importantly, stay away from this unit. It sucks. We had to replace it within 5 months of moving our twins in their room. And we should have replaced it sooner, we just didn't want to admit it sucked as soon as the problems started. Crackling, popping, mixed in with blasts of static that could last for 30 seconds to 10 minutes. Fun when it happened at 3 am! Stay away from this!

I have the one hookup for my family room and the second wired to a splitter that feeds my basement, master bedroom and out side by the pool. They all play the same thing but can be turned off separately. Can not tune to a 2nd separate source.

I don't know for sure. They have one sending unit and two monitors that you can purchase. I think what you want is two sending units (microphones) and either one or two receivers (speakers). They have several channels on which they can broadcast so I think it should work with two units. Each unit would have to be broadcasting on different channels. Changing channels on the receiver is as simple as pressing the up arrow. It is also simple on the sending unit. I think it will work, but I haven't tried monitoring two rooms.

After I did some searching of what I recently purchased, I can see now it is the baby monitor (I also just bought two in-ceiling home theater speakers, so...) I am guessing not. It would be like trying to pick up two radio stations on the same radio. One might override the other. It does have codes to match so you could just change the transmitters to different codes and you could tune the one receiver in to which one you want to hear. If you are trying to hear two babies in different rooms, I would definitely not count on one receiver doing the job.

theres 3 channels so you can have 3 of these in the same room without interference, hope this helped!

Yes, this is exactly how we use this. You push the talk button and can speak into the room where the other unit is placed. One challenge- if your kids have headphones on, they may not hear you. There is also a cAll button that is a ringer to help get there attention before you speak. Great device!

Each Freedom works on separate frequencies - Two in the same home will work independently

We have two of these sets, one in our toddlers room and another in the baby's room right next door. They work without interference, however we have noticed our original set has started occasionally losing connection with the base unit a few times a week (not a big deal but the warning beep is annoying if it happens in the middle of the night). I'm not sure if it is directly related to adding a new base unit or just because the first set is over a year old. They always reconnect on their own in a few minutes though and we never have any problems with static.

If you have enough separation of the channels. E.g. use ch 1for one set and ch 8 for the other. Sometimes you have other things in the 5.8gig range that cause interference. But you should be able to find two usable channels.
