White Noise Machine Rechargeable, AVANTEK 30 Non-Looping High Fidelity Soothing Sounds for Sleeping with Full Touch Control, Fan & Nature Sounds, Earphone Jack, Memory Function & 7 Timer Settings

Easy to operate, small footprint. Yes, sounds are realistic. So much so that the bird calls option had my cats looking in the area near the machine - for the birds. Switched to bubbling water sound which was relaxing and didn't bother cats at all. Used it for the first time last night and definitely had an improved night's sleep.

Product was working well. Enjoyed the sounds. LIked the small compact size and bag it went in. However it didn't last that long. Just over a year.

It works great. Good selection of different ambient noises. I have the round one. I wish it didn't have touch control, I had to put tape near the buttons so I could operate it in the dark.

I've lived with this thing for a year now and just ordered something different to replace it. I agree with some of the other top negative reviews written about this Avantek sound machine.1 - The sounds are NOT non-looping. You might not hear the looping if the volume is low, but if you need moderately loud noise to help you sleep, you can't fail to notice the loops. Furthermore, you can also hear what I can only describe as other odd sound "artifacts" within the sound that are unpleasant and confusing when you first notice them.2 - The bright power light is extremely annoying, especially when the unit is on your nightstand and you prefer a dark room to sleep. I had to resort to covering it up.3 - The usb power cable is susceptible to disengaging power to the unit with the slightest jostling. It will appear to be connected properly, but will need you to fiddle with it to get the connection working properly again. While the unit will run off the built in battery, it usually won't last all night and you may wake up to silence because it's stopping working.4 - The touch sensitive controls are impossible to see in low light / darkness, which is not helpful when you want to make a quick volume adjustment in the middle of the night. The controls are also very sensitive and all too easy to accidentally activate.I regret this purchase and advise others to avoid it.

Update: It has been over a month since I purchased this and I have found that it is not really to my liking.Pros: Small size, has several different sounds but I like the white noise ones best and most of them have a looping undertone which does not work for me. There is 1 I like to use.The same sound you left it as comes back on when turned on after being turned off.Backup battery.Cons: *Only one white noise sound does not contain the looping noise.*Way too sensitive to touch, too easy to change the sound from one to another*The on-off is under the device, which means I can easily change the sound or volume or turn on the timer when I don't mean to.* There is no indicator to tell what sound you are on at any given time. You just have to touch forward or backwards until you find the sound you want.I have ordered a different device I hope will work better for me. This one will be a back up.

This thing is amazing. My baby is breastfed and sleeps through the night at 2 months old. I do believe that the white noise machine contributes to her restful sleep and lack of other noise distractions around the house. The white noise machine drowns out other noise. We use it every nap and at nighttime. I would buy it again in a heartbeat.

Meh. It’s fine for traveling if you cannot bring a fan, but I wouldn’t spend money on this product again. Sometimes you can hear sounds within the white noise sounds. The “buttons” or lack thereof, work about 1/3 of the time.Stick with a box fan. Tacky, maybe.... but they do the best job for white noise.

I love this product. It has a great variety of sounds, easy to charge, the volume levels are perfect, I love that you can leave it on for an hour or even four, it definitely blocks out any outside nose and is the perfect size, it can fit in the palm of your hand, so it’s easy to travel with. Highly recommend.
