The best part is that we can bring it with us wherever we go. In the early days it was a lifesaver to bring with us even on errands. Just stick it in the infant carrier and off we go! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/white-noise-machine-tell-me-about-yours#post-2189114 Tue, 26 May 2015 08:58:40 +0000 Mamaof2 2189114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ValentineMommy: ditto on the graco one!

I don't even know the brand, but they are loud enough that they don't wake each other. Even when DD is tantruming in the middle of the night! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/white-noise-machine-tell-me-about-yours#post-2189009 Tue, 26 May 2015 07:25:43 +0000 Tanjowen 2189009@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sounds like the Dohm for the win! I agree it's not attractive, but everytime the white noise cuts out, LO wakes up crying, so something that reliable works for me. Thank you everyone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/white-noise-machine-tell-me-about-yours#post-2189000 Tue, 26 May 2015 07:14:07 +0000 ValentineMommy 2189000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a graco one that DS loves. 2 years and going strong. We also liked that it has a plug for your ipod/iphone. When DS was little, he liked to listen to one particular song over and over, so we'd hook the ipod up to it.</p> <p><a href="http://www.target.com/p/graco-sweet-slumber-sound-machine/-/A-11147713?ref=tgt_adv_XSG10001&#038;AFID=google_pla_df&#038;LNM=11147713&#038;CPNG=Baby&#038;kpid=11147713&#038;LID=9pgs&#038;ci_src=17588969&#038;ci_sku=11147713&#038;kpid=11147713&#038;gclid=CI248-Cw38UCFYMCaQodDzUAdw" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/p/graco-sweet-slumber-sound-machine/-/A-11147713?ref=tgt_adv_XSG10001&#038;AFID=google_pla_df&#038;LNM=11147713&#038;CPNG=Baby&#038;kpid=11147713&#038;LID=9pgs&#038;ci_src=17588969&#038;ci_sku=11147713&#038;kpid=11147713&#038;gclid=CI248-Cw38UCFYMCaQodDzUAdw</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/white-noise-machine-tell-me-about-yours#post-2188908 Mon, 25 May 2015 22:51:01 +0000 TiredmommaMD 2188908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have the homedics one too. We love it. Just bought a second for the LO#2's nursery. With LO#1 we didn't realize how important to the white noise was so we just had a little travel one that used batteries. After replacing the batteries every 4 weeks for the third time we got homedics one and were really happy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/white-noise-machine-tell-me-about-yours#post-2188901 Mon, 25 May 2015 22:45:43 +0000 QBbride 2188901@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought a Dohm based on the reviews here.

The original was bought nearly four years ago at BRU and is still used nightly in my older girls room. We bought a second one from Amazon for our younger. It has a timer for 60 minutes but we don't use that feature, I prefer to let it go all night long. At less than $30, a reasonable little machine.</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/The-First-Years-Silence-Machine/dp/B009Z4UYN0/ref=pd_sim_75_2?ie=UTF8&#038;refRID=0736AS0STZ1G7X76S406" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/The-First-Years-Silence-Machine/dp/B009Z4UYN0/ref=pd_sim_75_2?ie=UTF8&#038;refRID=0736AS0STZ1G7X76S406</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/white-noise-machine-tell-me-about-yours#post-2188825 Mon, 25 May 2015 20:59:27 +0000 Mae 2188825@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@dolphin: yep. all night and all through naps. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/white-noise-machine-tell-me-about-yours#post-2188820 Mon, 25 May 2015 20:54:50 +0000 dolphin 2188820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mae: @Mrs. Bee: @Pancakes: @MrsF: @blackbird: @jetsa: I'm looking into getting the Dohm too when baby 2 arrives.

They have them at doctors offices a lot too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/white-noise-machine-tell-me-about-yours#post-2188793 Mon, 25 May 2015 20:22:12 +0000 blackbird 2188793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have both the sound spa machine by home medics and the dohm . The dohm is louder, which is a win in our book. The sound spa one has been working great for two years, though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/white-noise-machine-tell-me-about-yours#post-2188789 Mon, 25 May 2015 20:10:55 +0000 MrsF 2188789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a dohm in each of our kids' rooms. I agree with @Mae: on the low-tech option sometimes being the best. I replaced a fancy electronic one because it would randomly cut out. Also, this sounds crazy, but I think the noise from the dohm sounds a little gentler, less harsh than some white noise. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/white-noise-machine-tell-me-about-yours#post-2188787 Mon, 25 May 2015 20:09:06 +0000 Pancakes 2188787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have 2 dohms. I think we paid around $50 for the first one, and the second one we hit on a super sale on amazon and got it for $34. But I would have paid $50 again without a second thought. We love it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/white-noise-machine-tell-me-about-yours#post-2188784 Mon, 25 May 2015 20:03:16 +0000 Mrs. Bee 2188784@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we have a dohm in each of the kids' rooms. 5+ years and still going strong. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/white-noise-machine-tell-me-about-yours#post-2188782 Mon, 25 May 2015 20:01:40 +0000 travellingbee 2188782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mae: that's what we have too and it's lasted for YEARS. It was used before we got it and it keeps on going- all night every night! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/white-noise-machine-tell-me-about-yours#post-2188777 Mon, 25 May 2015 20:00:43 +0000 Foodnerd81 2188777@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a super basic homedics one and it does the trick. We have bought it at both buy buy baby and bed bath and beyond (first one got dropped a little too hard and needed to be replaced). $20 and you can use a 20% off coupon. Can't beat it. C is addicted too. </p> <p><a href="https://m.bedbathandbeyond.com/m/product/homedics-reg-soundspa-reg-sound-machine/1013630208" rel="nofollow">https://m.bedbathandbeyond.com/m/product/homedics-reg-soundspa-reg-sound-machine/1013630208</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/white-noise-machine-tell-me-about-yours#post-2188776 Mon, 25 May 2015 20:00:11 +0000 Mae 2188776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have Dohm. It's ugly but it works great. :) I have no proof that this is true, but I always feel like lower-tech items are more reliable than higher tech items. This is just a motor/fan in a box. No real electronics. Seems to me like it should last a long time... and it gets stellar reviews.</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Marpac-DOHM-DS-Natural-actual-Machine/dp/B000KUHFGM" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Marpac-DOHM-DS-Natural-actual-Machine/dp/B000KUHFGM</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/white-noise-machine-tell-me-about-yours#post-2188772 Mon, 25 May 2015 19:55:03 +0000 Tanjowen 2188772@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO's white noise machine quit, and he's very dependent on it, so we will be ordering one ASAP. Ours was actually an old iPod that we used a white noise app on. Anyone have one they love - bonus if you tell me where to purchase and idea of cost :happy: </p>
