Adaptive Sound Technologies LectroSound Noise Machine for Sleep and Relaxation With Power Adapter, White

I lived in a major downtown for about 3 years and used this every single night, it is a life saver! The apartment building was near a hospital and busy road so there was a lot of noise at night that was keeping me awake despite being on the top floor of the building. No problems sleeping after this arrived! I used it for years and had no issues. It is durable and has a calming classic white noise sound. You can adjust the volume and pitch which is a really nice feature and it is lightweight. A little big for traveling, would rather use a phone app in that case, but this is perfect for an apartment or home.

We've had this for about three weeks now, and ordered it after losing some nights of sleep to the noises of our apartment building. Our upstairs neighbor has a toddler who is up crying at least once a night, and we hear sirens that go by our building several times each night. This thing drowns them all out!A few things about it:* It only makes one noise (a whirring-like one), which I hadn't quite paid attention to when I ordered it. (I just ordered it because it had such great reviews.) I had been hoping that it would have more noise options, but I actually do like the one it has.* The volume control is great, and it gives you the ability to make this as loud or as quiet as you need.* The tone control also is nice since it allows you to adjust the tone to the level that fits you best.* It has a small footprint, which is great. I've been keeping it on top of our large alarm clock/speaker system, and it works great. Even if it has to sit behind a lamp or something else, it puts out enough sound that you'll easily hear it.This thing is small, but mighty!

It's very basic. Somehow I thought there would be actual sounds like water and whatnot, but it is very basic just variations of white noise. Does the job, just not quite what I expected, maybe that's on me for not looking into it more. It only works when plugged in, which is kind of a nuisance. But the volume is great and can get quite loud.

The media could not be loaded. I’ve only had this two days and it is already a favorite of mine. Comparing to my original Dohm fan-based white noise machine, this guy is just as loud, but offers more versatility in terms of range (pink to brown noise , whatever you may call it)The noise is amazing at drowning out those still awake in the house, and sound is impressively loud and deep for its relatively small size.The best part for me is that it is digital (with no moving parts and fans dying with age and pulling in dust), yet still has a “clicking” physical switch that is an absolute requirement for me: as it is most simple to AUTOMATE... and with a cheapy Alexa Wifi wall plug you can find for $10 or less...When it’s time for bed, you just want to say “Alexa, goodnight” and have the lights go off, ceiling fan turn on low, white noise machine come on” etc . Technology is supposed to be LESS complicated , so I prefer LESS settings and buttons and things to mess with, in order to get everything just right so i can actually relax and not think about anything else! This thing is well priced and beats the expensive competition. I almost bought another fan based one like a Dohm-a**. Ha. Alexa, Goodnight !

100% better than the Dohm product also sold on Amazon. Definitely 100% better than the apps and box fan I was using. The exterior sound is still there but it is muted enough that 1) I don’t have to wear earplugs 2) I don’t have difficulty falling or staying asleep. These, 3 - 1 very expensive and 2 very reasonable, were purchased by my wife to help with our sleep. I am very glad she did as the 2 inexpensive ones are incredible!

We bought two of these, and once of them was defective: The power button has a bad connection and only turns it on maybe 10% of the time, so we need to repeatedly press the button to get it to "stick" and stay on, and even then sometimes walking by it or even its own sound will shut it off.The one that isn't defective, though, is nothing to write home about. At louder settings, the speaker will crackle/vibrate in a clearly non-intentional way. It turns on immediately, rather than fading in, so you have to turn your knob all the way down and fade it in manually so you don't startle anyone awake. the construction is clearly cheap. Looks cheap, feels cheap.For 3 extra dollars, I bought the Letsfit white noise machine. The controls are modern, it has way more options for sound (including crickets, birds, and a storm), it looks sleek and modern, the sound quality is better, it includes an optional night light with varying dimness, it can go WAY louder, and it automatically fades the sound in. It's unbelievable how much better this other product is. I'm going to be buying another so we can just throw these away.

We REALLY loved this sound machine for the first month. The ability to fade between different noise sounds. Unfortunately, just after the return window closed, the volume dial stopped working. There are several volumes at which the sound just stops working and the maximum volume is significantly lower than it was when we first purchased the machine (we can hear a lot more background noise when it’s on than we could at first).
