Yogasleep Dohm UNO White Noise Machine with Real Fan Inside, Adjustable Tone, Non-Looping Sound, Sleep Aid & Noise Canceling For Adults & Baby, Office Privacy, Registry Gift, Travel & Home Essential

Compared to the Classic, I like it just as much
My wife bought this because I’m a such a “fan” of the Dohm Classic white noise machine that I was bringing it into my office to use whenever it wasn’t on for our baby. My house has hardwoods and noise carries easily, but the Dohm Classic washes it out with a soothing roar. When I read the reviews about the rattling and high pitched whine the UNO makes, I was worried I wouldn’t care for this cheaper model nearly as much. But it turns out the complaints are overblown, at least in my opinion.Sure, it’s definitely not as loud as the Classic on high, but we’re not talking about a tremendous difference in volume. It still delivers soothing, analog white noise and it’s plenty loud enough to drown out the sounds of floorboards creaking and cars driving by that tend to pull my ADHD brain off course so easily. None of Marpac’s models can get as loud as the loudest electronic white noise machines, so if you need to drown out a busy city street, an analog machine probably won’t cut it.To be fair, if I focus on the noise itself, I do notice two distinct sounds. One is the low-pitched roar of forced air and the other is a quieter, higher-pitched whirr that I assume is the fan motor. The thing is, I don’t sit there and savor the sound of the Dohm UNO like a fine wine. Whether it’s the Classic or the UNO, real analog white noise is something you don’t even notice after a few minutes (unlike digital samples, which quickly become annoying after you start recognizing the loop pattern). I guess some people like to focus on the sound, and if that’s how you use white noise, then the Dohm Classic does have a slightly quieter motor and if you listen closely you can tell the difference. If the quiet whirr ever starts to bother me, I’ll probably just open it up and spray it with some silicone.The only reason I’d advise against getting this model is if you like to fine tune the tone of your white noise. The Classic has two ways to change the tone, while the UNO combines them into one rotating piece that controls both tone and volume. Personally, I always leave my Classic set all the way open and never change it, which I imagine is what most people do, but if you need not one but TWO ways to alter the tone, then best to stick with the Classic. One other plus is that the UNO has a better design than the Classic. It feels more modern and looks a lot like their confusingly named Dohm model, which is not the same as the Dohm Classic (they’re basically the same, but the Dohm has the updated design).Marpac makes the best white noise machines, and it shouldn’t be this hard to pick one. It doesn’t help that they’ve started using the Yogasleep name on their products since they bought that company. Don’t get confused; Marpac is still the manufacturer for all the Dohm machines. They’ve given us a surfeit of choices, but the analog machines are mostly so similar, you just have to choose which “trim” level you want. Personally, I’d recommend saving $10-$15 and getting the UNO and enjoying the peace and calm of a less distracting environment.

Amazing
This works amazing and provides a soothing sound. I do wish it would go a little louder.

Effective noise-blocking but functionality is limited…
The quality seems good, it is effective but just lacks in options.PROS:REAL FAN – The unit contains a real fan. For me this is huge because I have yet to find a machine with fake fan sounds that sound even remotely like a real fan. Having a real fan inside is important for me, but it may not be an issue or concern for everyone.EASY TO USE – The unit is easy to use. You just plug it in and push one button. If you want to adjust the sound, you just turn the dome. All of this can easily be done with one hand (no sticking or difficulty adjusting).EFFECTIVE – This unit does drown out TV sets, talking, booming music and so on from other parts of the house as well as noises from outside.CONS:LIMITED SOUND/VOLUME OPTIONS – The range of sound and volume is very limited. However great it is that there is a real fan inside, it equally disappointing that there is only one speed for the fan. On top of only having one speed option, there is only a single layer/level of dome movement and that range is not huge. I have another sound box that has a dome which can be adjusted two different ways–top and bottom which provides a wide range of pitch and it also has two fan speeds. That is far superior to the very limited range this machine has. On the upside to this con, at least the machine is a bit on the loud side and not on the weak side. You can always move the machine further away from you if needed.OVERALL: I recommend this unit for ease of use, simplicity and effective sound-blocking. But if you are particularly sensitive to sound, or prefer to have a lot of levels and options, I recommend a different machine.

Es el segundo que compro. El primero duró unos meses y de repente dejó de funcionar. Este segundo me duró solo 14 días… No puede ser tan mala calidad. No lo vuelvo a comprar…😡

As expected.Great dealing with this company. Would purchase with them again
