HemingWeigh White Noise Machine for Sleeping with Soothing and Therapeutic Sound; Real Fan Portable Sound Sleep Machine for Adults, Sound Machine for Baby Sleeping, Built-in USB and LED Night Light

This product is amazing, especially for the price. My intention was to find a white noise machine to eliminate noisy distractions in the spa that I work in. I'm a massage therapist and this machine has honestly been a game-changer! The small, compact design fits under the treatment table perfectly and creates the most soothing environment. I've noticed that my clients relax/zone-out SO much faster than previously (w/o the white noise machine). Therefore, if you're looking for a device to help you or your child sleep at night, I would definitely recommend this machine! The "white noise" is very soothing and mimics the natural sounds of rushing air/ocean waves...and the intensity can be adjusted.This machine is super simple to operate :) The switch on the left is the on/off switch for the night light- which is really neat feature! The light is neither too bright nor too dim, it's perfect really. I've kept the light off but I could imagine it being useful when placed in an infant or child's bedroom. The switch on the right affects the sound (I believe)- which can be further adjusted by twisting the top part of the device. The two USB ports are ideal, especially for spaces that have minimal outlets (e.g., night time phone charging). Overall, I'm VERY pleased with this purchase and would absolutely recommend it for a variety of uses!

My wife needs a fan to sleep at night, and while I typically don't mind I do sometimes have to put my foot down and remove the fan from the room. In the dead of winter for example, it's not very pleasant to have a wind machine on the floor blowing arctic air around the room. The fan is also off limits when I'm sick because the fan is like torture to my sinuses. After a little research we decided to give the HemingWeigh White Noise Machine a shot; and when it first arrived we tested it out in our kitchen, and I'll admit I had my concerns. It just didn't seem loud enough to be an adequate replacement for the fan. But I went back to Amazon and read a couple reviews to see if anybody else had similar issues, and the consensus seems to be that when you give it the opportunity to warm up, it's totally fine. So we cleared a space for it in our room, turned it on and...I'd honestly say "warming up" is a bit of an exaggeration; give it a few seconds and it's fine.So we're actually pretty pleased about our purchase; outside of the white noise being perfect for our needs, the two USB ports and night light are nice additions. You know, since this is something you put near your bed it's kind of nice to have a place to plug in a phone or tablet without needing an additional outlet. That's something that will work out really well for travel. We live a few hours from our parents so we often end up sleeping in guest rooms, and this will be pretty useful.

Having a small animal that runs on his wheel at night has been a nightmare. I wanted an analog sound machine and found this one with usb ports and a light. It works perfectly after close to a year of owning it. The night light is not blinding bright which I appreciate and the adjustable levels of sound really works.There are two settings, low and high. When I set my machine to "low" the sound starts out pretty quiet but seems to get louder as the night goes on. When I set to high it can really get noisy. If I open the vent all the way on high I would have to raise my voice to speak to my partner in bed, and I definitely wouldn't be able to hear anything else in the house; doors or windows opening, car alarms (maybe), dogs barking, cars driving on the shoulder bumps on the freeway nearby etc. But with such a flexible way to adjust sound levels of the machine, you should be able to find your "sweet spot" that will block out the noises you don't want while not interrupting the natural experience of the bedroom at night.

The item is well built with heft, and seems like it can last a long time. The unit is quite loud, and could probably provide white noise to a 1000 sqft room on its highest setting. In my bedroom I have to set it on low speed with its aperture nearly closed all the way in order to get the right sound level, because even on the low fan speed its a bit fast. The pitch of the sound changes until the aperture is about 15% open. After that the pitch is the same and only the volume changes. The fan also has a 'warm up' period, so you don't get the full power coming in until its been on for a minute or two.The sound itself has a slightly...industrial quality to it, without wetness. It's still a pleasing pink noise. It sounds closer to white noise when the fan is on full blast and the aperture is open. Excellent for drowning out other noises, but if you are looking for a sleep-aid device then be aware that this thing may be louder than the desk fan/AC/humidifier that you are used to. This is probably a 5-star product for people who live in cities and would like to drown out the noise of traffic outside.The USB ports are a great feature for plugging your phone in at night. The night light feature is a bit pointless in my opinion, especially because its a harsh white light with lots of blue in it, so it's not really ideal as a 'night light' to leave on while sleeping.

Waste of money - barely makes any noise and is not effective in blocking external noises that may interfere with sleep.The only good thing about it is that the inbuilt light is decent.
