LectroFan Sleep White Noise Machine (USA Version, US Plug Included)

Can't rate this highly enough. I don't know how this little machine manages to do it, but it successfully masks the noise from the neighbour's TV through the poor insulation in the wall. On the very rare occasion now when the TV manages to wake me, I find I don't fully wake, but just notch up the volume on the machine slightly and drop back to sleep. It's taken away the stress of the situation. If you've ever spent several nights a week awake at 2am when you have to go to work the next morning, you'll know what I mean. It has multiple choices of white noise and fan noise, but I just picked one and haven't had to change since. I really wish I'd bought it years ago.Update June 2017Still working amazingly well. Getting full night's sleep every night. Can't believe the noises I used to hear have completely stopped since I bought this machine - but I don't hear them and I sleep well. I would recommend it without hesitation.

I got this for my boyfriend to use, as having the tower fan on was annoying me, as it was too loud, has lights on it, it makes a beeping noise when it turns off, and I'm sure it uses quite a lot of power. I haven't tested it, but I feel like this small item must use less power, and it doesn't make any annoying beeping sounds, and, of course, doesn't cool the room down! It has a choice of sounds, and we found one that's fairly close to the fan sound from our tower fan. Being able to adjust the volume is a great feature, and really makes this a worthwhile purchase, even though it is quite expensive for what it is.We usually just pop it on for an hour. At first, I thought it was a shame that it doesn't have half-hour increments like the tower fan, or a remote, but we've actually found that using the 1-hour timer is absolutely fine, and now don't miss those features at all.I've only used it in one place so far, but like that it's small enough to easily take with us to a hotel or friend's house if needed. I might buy the case for it, although that's quite pricey too, so maybe we'll just use a tupperware box or something instead!I'd definitely recommend this if you're looking for something like a fan but not a fan. It's better than those baby noise machines, as it offers more fan-like and white noise sounds, which we've found much better for drifting off to.

We bought this unit for our son who is autistic. He previously always slept with a fan on to reduce the number of noises he could hear when going to sleep. However, this was not ideal in the winter. Therefore, we decided to give the lectrofan a try. The machine is smaller than we had anticipated, and you can chose from various different types of white noise. You can also adjust the volume on it, and my son switches it on every night without complaint, and it helps him to fall asleep quickly. We are hoping it will also mask the sounds of the very early dawn chorus in the summer, so that he can stay asleep for longer. The machine does not make sounds of nature, such as waves, but if you are needing white noise then this has proven useful. We are planning to take it on holiday with us, as it is quite portable, to mask noises from other guests staying in the hotel.

I have used this product for four nights in a row and the impact is tremendous.My bedroom faces a very busy road, and I have noticed a major decline in my sleeping pattern since. I have been contemplating moving homes and I bought this as a last resort.There are 10 white noises and 10 fan sounds.I use the white noise setting, and I adjust the volume, as required. I place it beside me when I go to bed, making sure it is on the side of the bed facing the road.It takes about five minutes for me to get used to the white noise. After this initial period, it is very easy for me to drift into sleep. I have found that I now sleep deeply and the traffic noise is effectively muted. When I wake up from sleep, I feel sufficiently rested.I like the fact that the machine is so small. I can easily carry it about or reposition it.

I live in a very quiet house. At night you can really hear a pin-drop. But I have housemates, which is what makes this little device essential. I should have gotten one much sooner for although my housemates do their best to be quiet, this is an old house with creaky floorboards and paper thin doors. I wouldn't say that the LectroFan drowns out these noises, more like it gives your mind something else to focus on. In a deathly quiet home, every little noise is amplified and its these little infrequent noises that wake me up. With the LectroFan whirring in the corner of my room I don't notice the other sounds and have been sleeping so much better since I brought it. The price tag is not cheap, but when you use it every night, it quickly pays for itself.I would like to add that the device itself is quite small and the sound produced can be on the tinny side. To combat this I place the machine upside down on a small empty cardboard box. Not only does this give the audio a more natural sounding bass, but it also softens it too.

The only reason I'm giving this 4 starts rather than 5 is because of the price. The product itself is great but it is a little expensive. I have this on overnight and it's really great. Very easy to use: on/off button, a timer if you only want it on for an hour (if you don't use the timer it will just automatically stay on until you turn it off) volume adjust button and then several different fan or white noise sounds to pick from. The sound quality is very good and it's a continual sound. Personally I always have it on the fan noise because I prefer that and it does sounds like a genuine fan. Most importantly it's worked to drown out the annoying neighbour noises and noisy boiler I have in my room. I couldn't sleep without this.
