Literally a life saver!

published

The Owlet has saved our family from many sleepless nights after purchasing one for our second child after we lost our first child in his sleep at 21 month old. I rely on this device every night and it has saved a hospital stay after alarming us to low oxygen levels one night when our daughter came down suddenly with pneumonia. We are currently looking into another for our newborn for further peace of mind. Great product and very helpful and a quick replacement received when we had an issue.

Life saver

published

I bought an Owlet for my second and I am so thankful I did as my son had chronic sleep apnea. It saved his life more than once.



It was easy to set up, I did find when he was a newborn it would lose connection alot which was annoying. The socks however wear down and break easy and I have needed to have my monitor replaced twice as it wouldn't change angmore.

I would reccomend it despite the small issues.

Peace of Mind

published

This is perfect product for first time moms who are little anxious about there little one going to sleep and knowing that even though they are fine you have that thought in the back of your mind that something may be wrong. This is the perfect product for you if you are like that.

I was that mum and I was always checking every two seconds just to make sure until a family friend gave me this gift and now it is the biggest must have that I could recommend to anyone in their pregnancies.

My 1 week old son spent the past week in hospital, Thank’s to this Owlet it alerted us that he’s heart rate was over 223bpm, Got Ayman to the hospital with in 15 minute’s, Blood test come back that he had a bacteria infection, If it wasn’t for the Owlet I wouldn’t have got Ayman to the hospital till he started showing sign’s that he had infection. We are home now & the Owlet sock is back on he’s foot. Don’t hesitate to buy the Owlet, It’s worth every dollar for peace of mind!

Awesome

My baby was put on nighttime oxygen whilst in hospital and now needs it at home. The owlet sock has given us peace of mind that we will be warned if his oxygen goes too low! My only suggestion is that it would be handy to alter the oxygen level alarm as 80 is too low for my bub. 10/10 would recommend.

Unable to use it despite the fact I’ve asked for help several times!
Customer service is poor and can not assist me with the issue. Lid for both sock and camera and can’t use either

Don’t take the risk

published

Had on for a few nights, inconsistent reading of sleep/awake time on the data history, constant heart rate/oxygen level was good. After purchasing, it is concerning to note that the Electromagnetic Field (EMF) results are far higher (8 V/m) than personal fitness monitors, mobile phones on wifi and on a call are 21v/m. This does not seem healthy at all considering it does not actually track movement from breathing. What does the company have to say about that? Consumers be aware.

Incredible until it broke

published

Loved the sock until the battery in the sock died at around 13 months, we're unable to charge of use the sock any more and i can't see how to get a replacement from them. To summarise, it was great until it just broke out of the blue with no way to fix it.

Piece of rubbish not peace of mind

published

Do not buy this product! An expensive piece of garbage that provides zero piece of mind! It continuously goes off at night despite the sock placement being fine. You cant use it when your baby is too tiny because the sock doesnt fit properly and you cant use it as they get older because they wriggle a bit so what is the point? [Content Removed]! Mine is now 5 months and Im yet to have a decent night sleep without false alarms

Good for peace of mind

The sock works well and gives me some peace of mind.

I've never had any alarms for issues but do occasionally have alarms for the sock coming loose and misplaced.

This is perfect. Can't live without it!

published

I live in a huge house and the range on the sock is tremendous.
The monitor is super reliable but I hate the Android app I can never check live heart rate anymore (use to be able to with the old app)
I still get notifications out loud and on my phone as push notifications.
The monitor was super easy to set up!

This is great

published

This was amazing. My Baby got put on oxygen in hospital so bringing him home on oxygen was scary. Having the owlet sock helped monitor it. When he came off oxygen it was great to have, to make sure he wasn't dropping levels. It was easy to set up and easy to use. I loved that it fits under clothing. Would definitely recommend to others

Saves my sleep

published

I love my owlet and I recommend it to everyone. The dimmed green light flashing next to my bed stopped me waking my peacefully sleeping baby to check he was definitely still alive for at least the first month. I also love the sleep monitoring function with the new app. My baby wears his monitor every night and most naps and he will until he's too big.

published

This product is amazing in itself but the customer service is just as fantastic! The most responsive, customer focused service I have ever had!! Not just for newborns! Our 14month old is in daycare and constantly sick this product lets us go to sleep easily knowing if his health declines we will be alerted to it, we will be using it as long as it fits on his foot!!! Thank you for the sleep!!!

Love it! Tech support is amazing!!

published

I love the Owlet Sock 2. I recently had issues with the sensor after 8months of everyday use so I called Tech Support who sent me out a new one free of charge.. it is so reassuring that we have support like that after spending so much on the product, which I would do again in a heartbeat.

I found the range from sock to base station is great, it still connects even after being behind 2 sets of closed doors.

Even after the issue with the app connectivity which happened recently I still had peace of mind that the sock and base station were still connected and if anything should happen the base station will still alert me.

Thanks for such a great product!!!

Is there a difference between the smart sock 2 and smart sock? Some stores advertise the smart sock 2 but owlet only calls it smart sock..

1 answer

Team O.Owlet

Hi NJK, they should all be the Smart Sock 2. The original Smart Sock phased out many years ago and was never imported into Australia. Kind regards, Owlet Team.

Susan K.

Susan K.asked

When you say suitable from birth, can you please advise what size that is. A couple of reviews make note of the fact the socks do not fit I’m concerned we will have this issue. We have a premi baby, she is little and I want to know that the Owlet will fit her.

3 answers
Owlet
Team O.Owlet

Susan K. Babies differ so much one from another. Generally, the three sizes of socks that come with the Smart Sock will cover the first 18 months, or from birth to 25Ibs in weight. The SS2 is not suitable for premature babies, both in terms of the smallest fabric sock not being a good fit as well as the accuracy levels of the pulse oximeter.

Do give us a call if you have more questions, we want to be sure that you're making the right decision for your circumstances. 03 9588 0999.

Kind regards.

Hi Susan, I bought this for our baby who was born at 27weeks. When we bought him home he weighed 3.5kg and we have been using the monitor since day one. Hope that helps.

Do the monitors work with twins, having two devices in on room or is there to much interface?

Karen R, yes, our SS2 does work with twins, though you will need to buy two complete units of course. If you would like a full run down of how, perhaps give us a call on 03 9588 0999 - it would be easier to explain over the phone. Kind regards, Owlet Team.
