Yogasleep Dohm Classic Original White Noise Machine, Soothing Natural Sound from a Real Fan, Noise Cancelling for Sleep, Office Privacy, Travel & Meditation, for Adults & Baby, UK Plug Included

I don't usually write reviews on Amazon but felt I really should in this instance as the Dohm has honestly changed my life. I suffer from a condition called Misophonia which means certain external noises can cause me a lot of stress and anxiety. Living in an apartment, this is obviously not ideal as you cannot escape external noise, whether it be traffic, neighbours tvs, doors slamming etc. Previously when at home I often resorted to watching TV, listening to music etc through headphones to drown this unwanted noise out.Since I got the Dohm however this has changed considerably. I find as long as I have it running on its maximum power setting I can comfortably sit at home watching TV or reading and I am not interrupted by external noises! I have tried electronic white noise machines in the past but as the noise is repeated, this can also irritate me, whereas the Dohm with it's fan creates a much more "natural" noise that is actually quite soothing to listen to, it's basically the same as having a large fan in the room.You can make adjustments to the volume and tone of the sound which is very useful. The only criticism I would really have is that between the two power modes available, I struggle to tell a difference in terms of volume. If I could have it slightly louder it would be absolutely ideal, but overall it has been a great purhase.

I dont usually write reviews but had to share my experience with this. We recently moved house and our neighbours are a retired couple and get up at 4:30am! They arnt the quiestest and our walls are thin. Then to add to this our heating is rather loud and would wake me at 6:30am! And even more my husband snores and wakes me up at times.I wasnt sure what to do, i didnt want ear plugs as have children and didnt like the idea of having ear plugs in and not being able to hear them. I then came across this item and decided to buy one, thought it was expensive but after using it for a month now its the best money ive spent in a long time! I dont hear next door neighbours, dont hear my heating turning on (incouding the pipes creaking) or hear my husband snore! Its amazing!! Its quite loud but its perfect for me, found it strange the first night, but after that no issues at all. I used to dread going to bed but now have no worries at all. I would recommend this to anyone!

This a solid, high quality white noise device which is compact and easy to use.Was drawn to this device because instead of being an electronic looped fan sound it is actually a fan producing the perfect white noise. Needed this as my neighbour has a cinema speaker system on his TV and can hear it through the walls, though not loud but was very distracting when trying to watch my TV. This has worked very effectively by drowning the unwanted sounds out and replacing them with white noise which isn't distracting.The device is easily adjusted by turning the top to decrease or increase the intensity of the fan sound and works very effectively. There are two fan speed settings though there is very little difference between them. There is no or very little air flow emitted from the device so won't cause any unwanted air flow.Dropped one star for two reasons, firstly it's quite expensive for a small fan in a box (cheaper than soundproofing the walls though which was something I looked into) and mainly because I ordered a black one to be less obtrusive visually (on dark furniture) but it came with a white cable which might sound picky but I found it annoying.Well made and does the job so would recommend.

If you get jolted awake by loud sounds at night, stop what you're doing and buy this thing. Buy it right now. It's worth it.The machine just makes very natural and constant fan/wind sound, but with no air blowing. So, when there's a passing ambulance or a drunken dumb dumb outside your window, there isn't a decibel spike. The blowing air sound just drowns it out. I didn't even realize I was waking up tired from noise at night until I started using this thing. Now I sleep like a baby, and prefer not to sleep without it!On the UK electrical compatibility: this machine is perfectly UK compatible, and works just as well here as it does in the US. I know because owned one of these things in the US for many years. It was exactly the same brand, same model, just made for the 110v/60Hz electric grid that they have there. The loudest setting may be a tad quieter than it was there, but hardly noticeable. The difference between the two speed settings is also not as great in the UK as it was in the US, although there is still a small difference. It's probably because the machine was designed in the US, and uses the AC frequency to set the motor speed. But this has absolutely no negative impact on the function or safety. You can still adjust the sound of the white noise by sliding the casing around. You can still adjust the motor speed. And it's perfectly safe.Bottom line: it is UK compatible, and produces beautiful constant white noise for a good night's sleep. Well worth the price.
