Sound Quality and Variety

Pros:

  • "I'm impressed by the amount of sound that this small machine can put out."
  • "The volume gets super loud, it can really drown anything out if you turn it all the way up."
  • "It has so many different types of fan and white noises."
  • "I love how versatile the sound selection is too, just toggle for lower to higher pitched hums or fan noises."
  • "With the 20 different sounds to choose from, I think anyone could find one they like."
  • "It has a great variety of sounds. I prefer the lower, more bass-y fan sounds and I found one that works perfect."
  • "Best of all the sleep machines I've used. Has multiple different types of ACTUAL white noise."

Cons:

  • "Note: do not buy the mini version of this…volume doesn’t get loud enough."
  • "Not a lot of choices of which type of sound is used to override background T.V. noise coming from a T.V. in an adjacent room."
  • "Many of the 10 optional fan noises are really horrible IMO, particularly the high pitch."
  • "The one white noise just sounds like an increase in volume for each selection instead of actual different frequencies."
  • "This item sounded like it was placed in a room that had fans on and recorded. You could hear people talking in the background of certain fan sounds."
  • "The fan noises sound more like a far-off jet engine flying over than your typical fan noise."
  • "I personally hate all 10 white noises, but there are a couple fans that I like, and one that I've settled on and used for a few weeks now."

Design and Portability

Pros:

  • "It is small and compact - great for packing in the suitcase."
  • "It's convenient enough to travel with in a small suitcase too."
  • "This little gadget is small enough to fit into my carry on with zero problems."
  • "It also has an incredibly tiny footprint, which means a lot to me as a designer and a minimalist."
  • "It's small and cute and portable."
  • "It is small and unobtrusive on the dresser top."
  • "It's small enough to pack in suitcases and helps in noisy hotel rooms for the kids naps."

Cons:

  • "The cord plugs into the bottom of the unit and the cord wrapped around the bottom of the unit so this rattles and vibrates when it’s being used. Not a good design at all I would not recommend this."
  • "It's slightly large for traveling, I think, although it would definitely fit in a carry-on depending on how many other necessities are packed."
  • "The plastic casing is come undone near the plug and the cables are exposed."
  • "This has to be the ugliest and most unprofessional packing of all time."
  • "Now one out of three is rattling. For the price paid this is utterly unacceptable."
  • "Unfortunately, they don't sell a power cord separately which essentially renders the sound machine useless."
  • "I've only had this noisemaker for 4 months and the other night it just stopped turning off unless I unplug it."

Reliability and Customer Service

Pros:

  • "They immediately responded by email and then called a few minutes later saying that they would send out a new power cord."
  • "I contacted them about it and they sent me a replacement wire."
  • "I have owned a few of these machines. I even bring them with when I travel since I have gotten so used to sleeping with it."
  • "I was pleasantly surprised when I received a call about an hour later and was informed that although it was likely a damaged cord, they would send me out a whole new machine."
  • "5 Stars for customer service! Update, after emailing the company for support they responded quickly and offered a replacement at no cost."
  • "I called them back to let them know that it indeed was a bad cord. Again, to my surprise, they informed we they would send me an additional cord so that I can have 2 complete machines!! That's what I call customer service!"
  • "I registered for the warranty online. Called up customer service and immediately spoke to a human being."

Cons:

  • "Bought to take on vacation for our baby overseas. On night 10 it just gave out in middle of night while baby was asleep!!!!!! Terrible!!!!!"
  • "I won't be buying another one of their sound machines again."
  • "Like others have said there are no returns."
  • "The other older ones this also happened to. We keep buying these bc the noise doesn't loop and we can't find another we like, but I guess I'm going to have to search for another again."
  • "It was fine in the beginning but then just stopped working."
  • "Unfortunately, it didn't last two years. Started glitching out and turning off randomly."
  • "This LectroFan Sound Machine STOPPED working ONLY after 3 days of use. Date of purchase was 8/20/2022. Very poor quality."
