Help! Which white noise machine do I want?
It’s easy to get confused over which white noise machine is best. Portable? Night Light? Shushing feature? Lullabies? There's so many features, we know it can get overwhelming!
We like to keep things simple here at Mom Store, so we only stock three white noise machines [the best ones in our opinion!].
Let's take a look at them!
The Hushh 2 Portable White Noise Machine
The new and improved version of the famous Hushh white noise machine. The Hushh 2 has 6 calming sounds, an adjustable amber night light and visible backlit buttons.
The Hushh 2 features a rechargeable battery that lasts up to 34hours, comes with a secure carabiner clip that can easily be operated with one hand & is durable, so will last the test of parenting - a true upgrade from the original Hushh.
Pros – Portable, rechargeable, nightlight, improved battery life from the Hushh, 6 sound options, child lock.
Cons – No timer [plays continuously only], only 6 sounds compared to the Hushh+ and the Nod which have 20. Not designed to be used while plugged in for prolonged periods of time as this can damage the battery.
The Hushh+ Portable Sound Machine
With all the features of the original Hushh, plus even more sleep sounds, a wireless bluetooth speaker, and a longer-lasting battery, the Hushh+ will lull your little one to sleep at home or on the go.
Choose from 20 soothing sleep sounds or use the wireless speaker to create the perfect soundscape for a dreamy night’s sleep anywhere [you can even play your little one's favourite songs through it!].
The adjustable amber night light provides gentle illumination without waking your little one. For added convenience and portability, the Hushh+ can be charged wirelessly, and the long-lasting battery offers uninterrupted soothing throughout the entire night.
With a sleek, water- and dust-resistant design and an adjustable silicone strap, the Hushh+ makes it easy for baby to get the sleep they need, no matter where they are.
Pros - Portable, 20 sounds to choose from, bluetooth speaker, soft nightlight, wireless rechargeable battery.
Cons - Not designed to be used while plugged in for prolonged periods of time as this can damage the battery.
The Nod Sound Machine & Night Light
The soft glowing dimmable night light is a huge feature of The Nod Sound machine. It makes night wakings or feeds easier as you can find your way around baby’s room without the harsh glow of a phone light or main light. Much like the Hushh+, the Nod also features 20 sound options including white noise, pink noise, shushing & womb sounds. It has a higher decibel rating than the original Hushh making it slightly louder as well. The Nod also features a built-in timer that you can set to turn off after 45mins, 90mins or 8 hours.
Pros – Nightlight, 20 sounds, louder machine, designed for overnight use.
Cons – Cannot be used as a portable machine, no child lock.
We have used the Hushh 2, Hushh+ and Nod sound machines ourselves and love all of them for their individual features. If it is within your budget, I highly recommend getting both the Hushh 2 or Hushh+ for out and about, and The Nod for at home.
If you have questions about any of these machines, please get in touch and we’ll be happy to assist.
