Marpac 980 SleepMate & Sound Screen Conditioner White Noise Sleep Machine

This product works great and helps to block out noises that might otherwise keep you awake.

This small package is a valuable tool in my apartment and in a hotel room. Small, easy, variable sound volume helps me get a better sleep every night.

We have had this unit for nearly two years and it is still working flawlessly. It is the only unit we have ever had that gives a true white noise - my ears pick up patterns on other machines. We are very pleased.

If you are looking to sleep through the night, this is the product for you. My husband and I live in an apartment building with our bedroom at the back facing the backs of several other buildings. There is always noise coming from several of the other buildings as well as airplanes flying over head and the hourly city buses/trucks that drive by in the front. When we moved in our sleep was always interrupted by these types of noises. This little machine has made sleeping through the night possible. We don't worry anymore about being woken up b/c it masks these noises so well we forgot they ever existed. This is money well spent!

However, I also purchased this product to try to mask the loud bus/truck traffic noise during the day from the stop-light AND the bus stop out of the front of the building. This noise is unfortunately way too loud to make disappear, but the better sleep I have been getting has made this noise much better to deal with b/c I am no longer over-tired and cranky. I still look forward to great nights sleep. All I can say is BUY IT!!!

We tried white noise cd's to calm our son but they would stop after the hour time and restart (even on the restart setting). Fans work good but can't use them year round. We also have a humidifer and it is great! But this is AMAZING. It has tons of different settings. Just plug it in and it goes forever! We use his overhead fan, his humidifer and the white noise machine every night. The white noise is nice because we took it on trips and it was a lifesaver!
