Sound Quality

Pros:

  • "The quality of the white noise sound is preferred."
  • "Its perfect, exactly what i need to tune out my tinnitus."
  • "The sound is a classic white noise… this is the one that most doctor’s offices use for privacy."
  • "The swooshing sound is very comforting to be lulled into a deep sleep."
  • "It blocks out all the noises and is more of a brown noise, which I find very soothing."
  • "This machine provides wonderful white noise balance and is exceptional."
  • "It's the sound of actual wind produced by a little turbine in this small chamber. No loops to distract the brain! Simple, soothing, huuuuusssssshhhhhhhhh...."

Cons:

  • "The sound isn’t as soothing as the yogasleep dohm in my opinion."
  • "Even at the highest setting, I can’t imagine it competing with loud snoring or loud music."
  • "It could have been louder for me."
  • "The device is certainly small and easy to use, but it’s just not loud enough to make a meaningful difference."
  • "I really wanted to like this but the sound is way too soft to drown out the sound of sleeping dogs."
  • "If you’re looking for something to truly drown out background noise, this isn’t loud enough on its loudest setting."
  • "Fully open still isn’t loud enough to drown out other noises."

Durability and Reliability

Pros:

  • "They work the first time every time. We've had several at the house for years and even have several at work."
  • "This is my second one. My first one lasted 25 years."
  • "We have bought 5 of these over the last 6 years. All are still running in all of our rooms we purchased this last one for our master."
  • "Came back to look for a future backup, as I recently realized how the unit has been running pretty much non-stop (only off during brief power outages) for over 6 years now."
  • "Purchased several years ago and still going strong."
  • "Bought this in January 2017. It's been running almost 24/7 since then."
  • "This is such a wonderful white noise generator that I have had one for close to 50 years."

Cons:

  • "While trying to plug it in, I dropped it... now it doesn't work."
  • "We had one of these for just over a year - 13 months, before it went out and stopped making sound."
  • "The replacement had less than 72 hours of total run time when it began to emit a metallic rattle as though the fan blade was in contact with the housing."
  • "Starting from the second night, it began producing a rattling noise."
  • "I had this product for less then a year and it began giving me trouble within the first 60 days."
  • "Save your money! This new one I bought I used for two months, for only when I was sleeping, and all of a sudden it just stopped working."
  • "However, this sound machine that only gets used by guests on occasion, has quit working after less than 6 months from purchase."

Volume and Sound Adjustment

Pros:

  • "You can adjust the noise by turning it until you get the perfect 'sound' you want. It also has a high and low fan setting."
  • "It is nice because it can be adjusted how loud you want the white noise....high or low."
  • "The two levels of sound output are good to have."
  • "It’s simple to use yet still has plenty of volume and tone settings just based on how many holes you have turned open."
  • "We love it! You can adjust the noise by turning it until you get the perfect 'sound' you want."
  • "This produces a nice white noise and is adjustable so you can control the volume."
  • "Basic white noise sound that can easily adjust the volume."

Cons:

  • "I noticed right away that it was very difficult to turn to adjust the sound."
  • "I am a bit disappointed that it isn’t louder."
  • "It only has two volume controls, loud and louder."
  • "The range of volume is pretty limited so if you want it truly quieter, you will need to put it further away."
  • "Not loud enough whatsoever."
  • "If this had volume control I think it would be more beneficial as a sound machine to many that need to sleep."
  • "Minus one star because I ordered white and it looks more like a cream color, and the finish on the device just looks rough in some areas."

Portability and Design

Pros:

  • "I take it with me wherever I go!"
  • "A trooper even when taking it on work trips."
  • "I love how you can pack it in a bag if you’re traveling somewhere."
  • "Also easy to travel with."
  • "I sleep with a fan every night for the noise, I purchased this to take with me on a trip to the Dominican Republic as it is smaller and easier to pack than a small fan."
  • "I have used this brand of white noise machine by for years. I travel a lot and one even fits easily in my travel bag. They last about 5 years each. Great value for the money."
  • "It’s so much more portable than a fan."

Cons:

  • "It’s surprising that this device doesn’t come with a warning to keep it at a 3-5 foot distance."
  • "We turned on the machine and felt the toxic burning smell right away that should never be anywhere near children."
  • "This sits on my night stand. Looks much better than having a box fan in the bedroom collecting dust."
  • "It is a little heavy to take on travels."
  • "It is a bit bulky and heavy for travel."
  • "This is quieter then the box fans I have. It blocks out zero noise and is a complete waste of money."
  • "Can confirm this is a knock off of the original and the machine will smoke when used in Europe with a plug adapter."
