White Noise Machine with 31 Soothing Sounds, 5W Loud Stereo Sound, Auto-Off Timer, Adjustable Volume, Sleep Sound Machine for Baby, Kid, Adult -Wood Grain

I bought it because our baby’s room needed something steady to mask creaks and street noise, and I wanted something unobtrusive that wouldn’t wake the whole house. A simple device with a few reliable sounds seemed ideal for helping everyone drift off without drama. In everyday use the sound stays nicely intimate thanks to the forward facing speaker, so I can hear the details at a low volume without blasting the room. The 31 real sounds give me a few comfortable options like rain or gentle ocean, and the volume fades quietly so there are no jarring jumps as I fall asleep or wake in the night. The timer options are convenient, and I like that it can run until morning if needed without me having to reset it. What stood out most is the look. The wood texture and soft curves make it feel calmer on the nightstand than plain white plastic, and the tilt design keeps adjustments easy without having to fumble in the dark. The output feels solid enough to feel premium without being loud or disruptive, which is exactly what I want when someone is trying to sleep next to me. One small caveat is that there are no lights or audible clicks, so in the dark it can be a little tricky to confirm which sound is playing without listening closely or changing settings. Still, the overall experience is very positive and it genuinely helps with sleep, so I’m glad to own it.

Very happy with this little product. It's unobtrusive, sheds no light when sleeping and the various sounds are great. I found a fan sound that mimicked the fan I had (which broke, which I only was using for noise) and so this was cheaper to replace and more versatile. It's small so I can imagine traveling with it, and it maintains the settings (selected sound and volume) after pushing on/off. (I haven't used the timer feature, but it's there and I suspect it would work well.)

Unfortunately my wife has just come down with a medical condition related to tinnitus. Among other things, this problem has ruined her sleep, causing her to awaken several times a night and then having difficulty falling back to sleep. She saw a neurologist who suggested, in addition to being tested in the next week or so, she should get a white noise machine. We came home from the neurologist's office and immediately began looking here on Amazon. I looked (on my computer) and she looked (on hers). I had picked about six of them, including this one but she picked this one only. She said that this < Housbay White Noise Machine with 31 Soothing Sounds, 5W Loud Stereo Sound, Auto-Off Timer, Adjustable Volume, Sleep Sound Machine for Baby, Kid, Adult -Wood Grain > is just what she wanted. It does not have a nightlight, which we do not need or want, and its wood-grain design is very nice and fits well into our bedroom. I immediately ordered it (around 4:00 PM) and, with Amazon's amazing shipping, it arrived around 8:00 PM that evening! We have now used it for two nights running, leaving it on all night. Her preferred setting is White Noise, Lowest Setting with a fairly high volume level. It has been helping her. She has been able to sleep for a much longer period of time and, when she does awaken, this machine overcomes the tinnitus-type problem. I had thought that having this white noise throughout the night would interrupt my own sleep but such has not been the case. The device appears to be very well-constructed of high quality materials and its design is superb. I do not know if the case is actually constructed from wood but, if it’s not, it’s the best simulated wood I have ever seen or felt. We are both very pleased with this device. There are two recommendations I could make to the manufacturer: 1) I wish its auto-off timer had options of 2 hours, 4 hours, and 6 hours, instead of 1, 2, or 3 hours (though we have been leaving it on all night - I just turn it off manually in the morning when we wake up), and 2) I wish its power input port were a standard USB C port rather than the non-standard one it uses; the port it uses would make replacing the cord, were it ever necessary, to be very difficult. However, regarding the last suggestion, the included power cord seems to be very robust and, as we take good care of our devices, I am sure that the cord will last for the life of the machine (which I hope is a very long time). I especially like the fact that it runs solely on AC power and has no built-in non-replaceable battery. (When those batteries "die" in some device - and they WILL die eventually - that's the end of the device, even if it is still working well.) Not that this attribute is too important to us, but this machine has many more (and many more good) sound options than any of the others at which I looked. (Of course the one we use is my wife's pick.) As I mentioned above, we are very pleased with this white noise machine and I will VERY HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT to you. Especially at its price, just $26.99, Amazon's current price, I regard this machine as a genuine bargain. If you need or just want a well-made and well-designed white noise machine, I hope you'll consider this one. I am certain that you'll be just as pleased with yours as we are with ours. Thank you very much for reading my report and for considering my opinions. Lawrence H. Bulk

If you need background noise while sleeping, this is a great product. There are several sound options, though it can be a little hard to tell which noises work best for you without hearing this in person. This particular unit didn’t have the exact sound or light we prefer, but it still works well and is exactly as described. Fast shipping and overall a great product

Fantastic white noise machine. It has other sounds like rain or my favorite, a babbling brook. Helps me get to sleep if I have to get up at night. Many different sound options.

Very nice product. A lot of various sounds and easy to use. Volume is strong enough and the product is estheticly pleasing.

Best purchase ever!! This has been a game changer for my quality of sleeping and drowning out the sounds of noisy neighbors! I have it set on the sound of rain. So calming. 10/10

Very aesthetically pleasing! Great quality! All sounds are very clear and real. Would definitely recommend. Great for a white elephant gift.

There is nothing I dislike about this noice machine. I am a nurse working a mixture of night shifts and day shifts with no consistency. I need a fan running in my room at all times but it wasn’t enough to drown out the noise in the house. The fact I can crank the volume on this machine (and it is LOUD) and have an option of fan noises among many other options is perfect for my needs. And to top it off it’s decorative to boot! It saves from my last settings so there’s no need to take the time to adjust to my preference. Just turn it on and either crank or lower the volume to my needs. Anyone who works shift work and is easily woken and struggles to stay asleep, this machine with a sleep mask will be your saving grace!

I bought this sound machine because I saw comments about its power, the diversity of sounds, and the good quality of the sounds. All of this has been true for me. However, I only listen to more typical "white-noise machine" sounds (the flowing stream sound is my favourite). Some of the sounds, while good quality, are unpleasant or just weird for such machine. Still, I'm keeping it: really solid build, good quality, compact, and the sounds are definitely higher quality than cheaper machines.
