Disclaimer: I was NOT given a discount or anything for this product (though I'd love that.. I have twins lol).
I've tried other portable white noise machines in the past and like the actual sound of this the best. The TV setting white noise is perfect. I used to use an app on my iPhone for the noise and this noise perfectly matches that so I love that. I also like that it take a few seconds of holding down the on/off button for those functions to be performed because my previous portable thing kept turning on and off. All in all, very happy with this product. I took off one star because it should've been just a wee bit louder and the design could've been easier on the eyes. Maybe I just don't like monkeys. Lol.
Ps. It is loud enough to be effective but sometimes you need it to be louder when you're in a noisy place so that would've been even better.
This little thing is as durable as a tank. We loved it for it's intense purposes. It hangs from my 2 month old's chair while I work out at the gym in the mornings. It keeps him snoozing the whole time.
***A toddler decided to stash the monkey on her water table that was full of water. It was submerged for at least 15 minutes. It never stopped playing so we didn't realize it was there. We picked it up, slung all the water out(which was a LOT) and removed the batteries. We didn't do anything special to dry it out, it just worked as normal the whole time. I'm impressed.
It is a basic sound machine, but certainly works for the purpose for which we use it, which is to attach to our son's car seat while traveling. The on button is a little flaky, as sometimes it takes a few tries to turn on (it needs to be held down to turn it on and off), but otherwise it works just fine.
This has been a life saver. My babies love white noise for the first several months. its not only cute but loud enough to calm baby down. I like that you turn it on and it will stay on for however you want it to but that you also have timer options. The battery lasts about two to three weeks when i use it every single night all night and several times through the day for naps.
The good:
It's compact/portable, easy to use, has a variety of settings, gets loud enough (providing the unit is close enough to baby) and (best of all) has a function that allows it to remain on all night long (a necessity for my youngest).
The bad: when used for all naps and nighttime sleeping, the batteries last all of 72 hours. Purchased it less than two weeks ago and am down nine batteries already.
The skinny: great unit if only using for naps, travel, or just initiating sleep. If you plan on using white noise all night long, would recommend a unit that plugs in or simply has a longer potential battery life.

Requires too many battery changes and noise that is made to adjust sounds or type of sound is pretty loud.
I'd love to have less battery usage and wish this was rechargeable.
It is easy to use. Easy to hang, though a not hard to remove.
My son does well with it and is recommend for short uses since you will need 100 batteries for longer use.
This has changed my life! My child actually is calm in the car now because of this and will sleep 3 hours straight (instead of not at ALL) now! I LOVE everything about it! The fact I can change the noise and also the volume control! I also love the timer on it! The ONLY thing I wish it had was an option to plug it in to recharge it (I hate wasting so many batteries). However, I’ve already recommended this product to some friends!!!
This little device saved our sanity more times than I can count. For some reason the white noise generated by this cute little gadget would calm our baby down and help her fall asleep. It was VERY handy when we had to take several multi-hour road trips for family reasons. The dreaded trips in the car turned out to be quite pleasant. Easy to use, has taken a few beatings and looks brand new still. We just bought another one for a pregnant coworker, and she was thrilled because of how highly I've spoken of ours!
Love this item and am going to order a second. This product is now going to be part of all baby shower gifts I give new parents. Our daughter loves it and we use it at least 3 times a day. Helps our daughter sleep and attaches to anything. Plus it's nice to have our phones back as we were previously using apps for the same effect. Wished they had other animals too.
I wasn't expecting much because of pricing but it works well. Battery life is a lot longer than I expected. It also has a great volume range. I bought this versus the travel one that matches our at home one. Mainly because the other one would have taken a month to be shipped!! The sounds don't match up with the one at home, but the white noise works as closely as our ocean sounds at home. The only downside is my baby boy is pretty excited about it and wants to play with it instead of go to sleep right away.
