We purchased this machine yesterday. It came without the manual. This was an exceptionally well-done instruction video on how to use this great little machine. One suggestion for improvement--the background piano track completely overwhelmed the sounds of the machine. I think that eliminating the piano sound track would make the video even better. Thank you again for a great video!!
Yeah I was not really aware of how annoying the background was. I will upload another sound Machine review soon and trust me it won't have that music lol 😆
@@AtHomewithLucas our very tech-aware church does the same thing with all of their video interviews. Annoys me almost as much as people who won't stop talking and listen at concerts. :-)
The video did not explain what the blue lights mean for the timer and instead said look at the manual to try to figure out the timer settings- we don't have the manual anymore that is why I'm on youtube
Okay it is simple...1 light = 1 hour 2 lights = 2 hours and so on...no lights on means it will not turn off(infinity mode)...clicking the power until you don't see the lights will activate infinity mode
Thank you so much! I bought this for my Dad who was diagnosed with dementia as a calming aid. He worked swing shift for 47 years and always slept with a fan, recently he started talking about listening to the rain hitting the tin roof as a kid (the 1940s in WV) and sleeping so well. Under $20 and lightweight if he drops it, no biggie. Now that I know how to operate it, things are 👍 Set it and forget it 😴
Awe thank you so much for the kind words, it’s been a little tough and seeing those words brought some happy tears ❤️ My Dad will be 78 on Monday, spend as much time as you can with your Dad, and thank him for me, he’s raised a good man
Dude! I went all through your very detailed video to listen to how real the fire sounded and you hit the fire for a half-second without letting us hear the sound. I guess I'll see if someone else is doing this same machine and will actually let us gear the sounds. This is a sound machine, after all, and the sounds were the only things you didn't go into detail or let us hear. Bummer, man.
Thank you for your review. I have a Jack Russel and wonder if this would be suitable for her nighttime anxiety she get's from our neighbor not changing their batteries of their carbon monoxide machine which keeps beeping because the batteries need to be changed, it drives my dog crazy.
Oh shit I'd call the police and file a noise complaint. That's insane you have to put up with that. I had a Rat Terrier that would also loose his mind at smoke alarm low battery beeps (we never had batteries in our house lol But yes we started playing noise in our room for our babies and found the dogs slept way better. It like they can fully go off duty 👍😁
@@AtHomewithLucas Golly thanks so much for quick response. Didn't really think you would respond- wow 4 my daughter will love that. I wish you would review the best weather am/fm radios with 5 ways to charge NOAA IPAWS public alert that actually work with solar and crank - how long it takes to charge in sun/ crank and how long the radio will play when charged and iPhone / iPad charger built in . So confused on the emergency solar / crank/ plug in phone chargers in emergencies.
I just bought one of these! One thing I don't like!!!! In the video you see the controls labeled! When I got mine it appeared to have no labels! I had to get a flash light and shine on it to see the labels! By labels I mean power on/0ff! Volume up/down! I am sure this will really help me sleep well! Will test it out tonight! I like it so far!
Oh, good luck with those controls. Once you get it set (volume plus sound) it will be easy to remember power on the left. Just remember if you see lights on that means it's on a timer and will turn off (won't run all night)
Great review however I don'y understand why would you want to have a backroeund music on the top of your voice when you are presenting a sleep machine. To me it doesn't make any sense. I was dying to hear just these sounds but instead I was disturbed by the music.
I have this. The brown noise is pleasant, but the device just stops working periodically for no reason at all! Take it to another plug and plug and unplug a few times and it works. Take it back to the bedroom and it works. Until it doesn’t. Very odd.
So I'm guessing you are aware of the timer (the light on the front)? Also are you living in an older place? I've noticed in my house (2007 built) some outlets are starting to die. So i could imagine that being the problem. Or you got a ghost living with you 😱😁
Oh that's so not fun. Double check the usb cable is all the way in the back of the machine. Also make sure the timer is not turned on (you shouldn't see any lights on) to make sure the timer is off just press the power button until it turns on then press until the light are all off.
thanks for the awesome review! just ordered mine .Snagged a lightning deal for 15 bucks i couldnt pass that up. ive been using google home hub white noise and its horrible because it loops every hour and goes silent for 2 seconds.
Hey, Vincent Van Bro, you do great reviews. That's right Edgar Allan Bro, you're a Bro-fessor of video reviews. I just got the Magicteam model that's up a level from this one with the buttons on top, 40 natural sounds and a killer speaker inside. The bloody thing kicks. Hey Bro-tein shake, the "boss lady" here loves it!
Dude, you're a freaking lifesaver. I'd just ordered the older model from Amazon (cuz it's ranked #1 there), when I caught sight of your timely reply here. Was able to cancel original order no prob & reorder newer model for a drop more money. Thanks, bro!
@@AtHomewithLucas Your review of this model is so thorough and comprehensive, that I feel like I've owned the device for years and wore it out before I've even laid eyes on it personally! Good thing there was a newer version of it to order, or there'd be no thrill left... Seriously, dude, I wish there were reviews like yours on everything.
Hey thanks so much for the review, I have 2 questions I was wondering. 1. How long does each sound last? It doesn’t switch from one sound to another after awhile does it? 2. Are these sounds copyrighted? If it wasn’t obvious by my channel name I record asmr (on a potato budget) and am looking for background noise for my audios, I just wanna make sure I don’t get flagged for copyright
@@AtHomewithLucas thanks so much! Also I’m going to ASSUME it’s fine, do you see any copyright claim on your end for this video? XD if not I should be okay :) thanks for getting back to me so fast
I worry that being so small that it won't have the low end that a box fan can produce. Seems like it has that mid range woofyness that a lot of those Bluetooth speakers have.
One thing I've noticed is it doesn't have much or any bass. I also sleep with my Echo dot 3rd gen that has bass. So definitely do your homework before buying a sleep box
@@AtHomewithLucas Yes. Ive hit the sound up button many times. I must have gotten a factory dud. I emailed the support team, have yet to received a response.
Very helpful! Thanks 😊
You're welcome 😁
Thank you for helping me figure out the infinity mode kept cutting off driving me crazy
Hey no problem happy to help. I'm still using this every night. 💯😁

Here cuz I forgot how to continuous play. We used to take a fan on vacations. I love this machine. It fits great in my suitcase😬
Happy to help ☺️ and enjoy your vacations
A great video! I also need white noise to sleep and I have the same machine. It works really well. Thanks!

Awesome review! I just ordered mine and l am waiting for it. It will be here tomorrow. Thanks again!
So happy to hear that. Comment again if you have any questions. 😁
@@AtHomewithLucas Absolutely
Does it have a rain with thunder sound?
Yes it does 👍
Here is Part 2 just the sounds of the soundmachine ://ua-cam.com/video/MalADcNUdu4/v-deo.html
@@AtHomewithLucas TY Lucas♡
Happy to help
How do u turn on the calming blue light?
This unit does not have a blue light. Did you see somewhere it had a light?
It does have a blue light. It is toward the back. It has to be completely dark to see. I LOVE mine!
Yeah it's a great sound machine 👍😁

Oh shit my bad. As I've never reviewed a sound machine before this I need good feedback like yours. I will make a second companion video asap 😁 thanks
@@AtHomewithLucas Right on! Thanks so much. You actually answered back and I'll get to hear the fire. Very, very much appreciated....
Okay the video is finished ua-cam.com/video/MalADcNUdu4/v-deo.html 😁
I wanted to hear the sounds too to see if it be better to play a white noise UA-cam video on my speakers or buy a sound machine
Here you go I recorded all the sounds... ua-cam.com/video/MalADcNUdu4/v-deo.html

I think mine is broken, I can't get it to continuously play no matter what i try. It just turns off when there are no timer lights on
How long have you had it?
Thank you for your honest review. I wanted a loud white noise machine and this is great
So welcome always happy to help 👍😊
Does it have a nice thunder storm track?
Yes and it's very realistic 👌👍
Does it have the sound of fans?
It has 4 fan sounds 👌

Great video, can this be used with a power bank? i do not have an outlet near my bed.
I've tried it with several different power banks and it seems to not work. It runs for 3 minutes then turns off.

Just a suggestion, I’d lose the kid music while you review the sounds.
Good to know...thanks

Thanks Lucas! So informative. Im placing my order now. 😃 Liked and subscribed.
Well that's so awesome to hear 💯😁 happy to help
Wow $20 and I got it for $4 at this place in San Antonio I forgot what it’s called something with Friday in it and everything was $4 tht day
Awesome stuff 👏😁

@@AtHomewithLucas awesome! Glad to hear it :3 thanks a bunch
Good review, my wife is fat and snores and this helps a ton!
Thanks 🙃
@@AtHomewithLucas You have no idea, but with the cost of rent I'll gladly take the L then be homeless.
Damn that's difficult...i feel ya bro

I just got mine and the sound does not work. I must have gotten a dud.
Hold down on the power button for a few seconds it should turn on...also it's not battery powered so plug it in.
@@AtHomewithLucas I did both. The machine turns on. I also get the lights. It just doesn’t play any sound.
Okay stupid question but are you sure the volume its turning up?
@@AtHomewithLucas Yes. Ive hit the sound up button many times. I must have gotten a factory dud. I emailed the support team, have yet to received a response.
When you hit the volume button do you see a white light flash?
We could hear the sound machine better if u didn't hv music in back ground.. i wanted to hearvthe train sound. U talked over it all
Good feedback...I did make a part 2 with all the sounds found here: ua-cam.com/video/MalADcNUdu4/v-deo.html
your background music isn't helping me hear the sounds, maybe redo your video to stop your background music when demonstrating the sounds
Totally understand what you are saying lol my bad 😁
I misplaced my manual much gratitude for this video
Happy to help 🙂
I lost mine as well and now my machine turns on but no sound...upsetting
Those button sound so cheap 😔
I've used other sound machines since this review, and I can say this one is the best.
Omg how hard is it to say what each sound is. No video does nor online. Is 3 white noise bc the first 4 is static sounds
Did you not watch part 2?
ua-cam.com/video/MalADcNUdu4/v-deo.html
Thanks just irritated been looking for a while. And rather not watch 30 mins of video but appreciate it
Background music 👎
Sorry I'm aware it's not for everyone 🙂
I wonder if this is like Alexa. Recording and listening to everything
No microphones or wifi connection so doubt it
Dude u can barely hear how clear the sound is with your background music on!!!!!!
Watch part 2 on my channel. I go through all the sounds 👍
ua-cam.com/video/MalADcNUdu4/v-deo.html
The background music is distracting and annoying as hell.
Duly noted 🙃
If i were you I'd find a different line of work, because reviewing products isn't your Forte.
Thanks for sharing your feedback
Unboxing. Seriously 😒
I'm confused by your comment
Perfect instructions! Desperately needed “Infinity” mode. Thx! 👍🏼😴🥱😴
Happy to be of help ☺️
Do they have timer?
Yes 👍
