DEX Products Sound Sleeper SS-01

I bought this to use in my baby's room and I do like the relaxing choices of sounds. I always leave it on the ocean waves. However, it doesn't block out external noise/sounds as much as I hoped it would, so I still have to use another machine that sounds like a whirring fan (white noise) so she won't hear the TV, etc. It is great in the car, though. So small you can just pack in the diaper bag and turn it on in the car to help the baby sleep.

I read every review and thought I would give it a try. The sounds are fine but the volume does not go up very high at all. We don't have any other kids, so our home is quiet for the most part. I think the baby will be able to hear it, if its close to him but I don't expect it to drown out any other noises in the house. It's too bad because I think some of the sounds are pretty good, some however are kind of weird just white noise. Its okay for the money. I am probably just going to deal with it rather than return it.

I really like this machine for my baby. We turn it to Rain and she's slept much better since we got it. It's also fabulous for when we travel. My 2 yr old is used to listening to a fan at nap time, so instead of hauling the fan everywhere we can just bring this. SO much nicer!

I read the reviews and wanted to believe the good ones - but the ones who tell you the volume level is useless are absolutely correct! Don't waste your money on this, it is barely audible. The sound selections are also poor and some of them are downright irritating. Another minus was buying this via Amazon from the vendor BabyAge; that was a bad experience. It took them over four weeks to ship it. To return to them you have to go to their website for an authorization number - by sending them an e-mail from there. Waited a couple days for a response and it was a nice e-mail telling me that I would be sent the authorization code but that I needed to understand that I would be given a store credit since they could not refund to me directly through Amazon. I had to request the store credit be converted to a refund after they received the item and issued the store credit. While they were nice and did tell me the refund has now been submitted, it's a lot to keep up with and pursue to get your money back.

I bought this to help my infant son sleep through the night. I was a bit worried when I read some of the other reviews, but the price was right, so I bought. Thank goodness I did!!! My baby loves it and the sounds help to soothe him to sleep, and more importantly KEEP him asleep. In fact I'm seriously thinking on buying another one for my husband and I to use in our room. It's that soothing. And, by the way, I've had the Sound Sleeper for 5 months now and it still works perfectly. The volume is perfectly adjustable, so it's not too loud or too soft.
