So really, if you’re going to listen to it, you kind of need it on the medium volume settings I think. I think the thunder kind of struggles on the lowest volume (settings) and also on the highest volume (settings). (At this point in the video, I play the thunder sound and turn the volume up and down)Īnd that’s the volume. I’m going to keep it on thunder, turn it on, and go through the volume up and down so you can have a listen. So now let’s have a listen to the volume controls. I think that, really, thunder is best suited to a better speaker.

As for the thunder, again I think that perhaps the speaker can’t really cope with the thunder so well. There’s no click or break at the end of the loops, it’s continuous, but if you just listen to the same thunderclaps or ocean waves then you will eventually spot them. The ocean’s okay – it has those rolling waves, but you do get used to the sound of the waves with the looping. I think those are probably the best ones on this device really. The brook is good as well, and the summer night. The rain is good, I like listening to the rain, it’s quite relaxing. It would have been good to have pink or brown noise, but at the same time I’m not sure the speaker would have been able to cope with it really.

Now, as for the sounds that it does have, I think that the white noise is kind of okay it’s quite high frequency as you’d imagine with normal white noise. Now, my opinion is that it’s a bit of a shame there aren’t more sounds, but at the end of the day, for such a cheap device, you’re not going to get a huge range of sounds generally on a white noise machine. (At this point in the video, I play through all six sounds for a few seconds each)

So what I’m going to do is play through all six sounds and not talk while I do it so you can just have a listen.
