really works! September 3, 2008 this item really works for the application. I use it to create white noise to help with sleeping. I have used them in clinical situations before to mask conversations which it also does very well. Highly adjustable, pleasant sounding.
Pioneer living in the ghetto? This is a must-have. August 27, 2008 After growing up on a farm my ears were trained to the quiet life, I moved to the big city. Upon living here I discovered that my neighbors like to drink a lot, play dominoes, fight, call each other horrible names, and not use quiet inside voices while addressing their friends as "Dawg and G" and play this redundant music called Crunk or Crap or whatever. SO, after several visits with my shrink I realized I didn't need to pay her to complain about how loud my neighbors were, but just buy the little white noise machine she had outside her office door. The sleep I lost was soon made up, I no longer scowl at my neighbors for being loud asshats, and I sleep soundly albeit the occasional gunshot or fireworks in the middle of the night. My husband and I are even more relaxed because of it.
disappointed July 21, 2008 first of all, I already own one of these for my daughter and love it. So when I had my son I knew I'd need another one. So I ordered it.. unfortunately it seems broken and I already toss away the paperwork and the box. When I turn it on it doesn't seem to have enough power and is not very loud. By morning it's hardly working. I plugged it into several different outlets, it's definetly the unit itself. I'd love to get another one, but for $60 + I just can't afford it. Sorry to give a bad review, I'm sure it's just a fautly unit.
Very effective July 5, 2008 I got this machine for my husband, generally nothing ever gets in the way of my ability to fall asleep at night. He was somewhat reluctant to become reliant on an apparatus to help him fall asleep, but he uses it every night and likes it. I like that it is small, with a simple switch.
He travels a good deal and this will be a great item to take when he is sleeping in hotel rooms. A little bit of home in his suitcase. We like it.
Really helps June 21, 2008 This really helps the outside noise. I sleep much better. My bedroom is upstairs and all the noise from the neighbors is like a megaphone to our room. Its as if they were right in our bedroom. This sound screen blocks out all of that. Even the dogs barking. I want to get a second one for my son's room who never sleeps to see if it helps him too.
