Great little gadget...

I bought this unit about 4 months ago to block out the noise of my wife's cat running around at night. It has worked great from day one.
I like how adjustable this unit is. With the different holes and speeds, you can easily adjust the white noise to your liking. I would imagine this would be great for people living in apartments. Now if it could only tazer the cat when he claws at the door at 5am in the morning.

Tiny but amazing!

Much to the chagrin of my husband, I am the kinda gal that can't sleep without white noise. It used to be a big box fan in our bedroom, but as anyone who sleeps with a fan on knows, that dries you out super quick - doubly so when your house is dry to begin with. Plus there's the old "stuff a sock under the carry handle to keep the fan from rattling" and heaven help you if it ever gets a rattle that you can't get rid of!

I love the SleepMate! My husband finally said "No more FAN!" and so I purchased a SleepMate instead. I was dubious at first- I have a very specific kind of white noise that I like to have when I sleep and I was thinking there's no WAY this tiny thing could ever make a sound to compare to the box fan! However, like other reviewers have said this thing can be LOUD! There's two speed settings - high and low - and the top and side of the SleepMate rotate, which covers and uncovers holes to change the pitch and tone of the loud "WHRRRRR" sound it makes. It doesn't matter how picky you are about your white noise, I'll bet you can find a tone that you like if you fiddle long enough. It has a range somewhere between "quiet strong breeze" and "Warning: low flying aircraft"

The SleepMate is also compact enough to take with me when my husband and I go on trips- something that was always difficult with a fan.

The only, and I do mean ONLY thing negative that I can think to say is that the color is that icky medicinal off-white plastic. If this thing came in a black finish, it'd be perfect!

Great for New York

works great to help me sleep through all the people passing my 1st-floor New York apartment. Also great for covering up street noise. the low setting is enough for me.

Only 4 stars now...maybe I'll give it 5 if it lasts. I've only owned it for 1 week.

only OK

I also own the Marsona travel machine which I like better. Although this one is adequate I like the "sound" on the Marsona better. And it is smaller and less noticable in the room.

I would not know what to without it

I saw one of these sleep machines in a catalog and it said Electro mechanical meaning using a motor and fan to reproduce the sound it makes. I soon went online to order one, and glad I did. I have been using air cleaners to reproduce the white fan and motor sound I was after. The filters was costing me a fortune to replace each month. I'm so glade I found this. I only wish I knew about this sooner. I liked it so much, that bought one for my sister who likes the same sound too. She use to go to college dorms and carry a big box fan in the middle of winter to get sound she was after. No more! She loves this thing and it's easy to take along. I find it's plenty loud enough, in fact I have it on it's lowest volume. Would recommend this to anybody that loves the sound of fans and air cleaners to sleep. Great prouduct. Has a long life shaded pole motor that is used in table fans, micrwaves and bathroom fans.
