This is way better than the Marpac Dohm-DS Dual Speed Sound Conditioner I bought from Amazon and it is less than half the price! The Conair Sound Therapy has a volume control and you can turn it up really loud (great if you have loud neighbors). I have super loud neighbors and actually use 3 different white noise machines at night just so I can sleep (yes, I need to move) and this is the best one I have (and was the cheapest). I only use the white noise setting on here but there is so many settings to choose from. I plan to buy 2 or 3 more of these so I can have 2 in my bedroom and 1 or 2 for the rest of the house to use during the day so I don't have to hear my neighbors. Way cheaper than moving.
Even if it would only work for say a year it wouldn't be so bad since it is less than 20 bucks. Granted, I hope it lasts for many years.
If you use batteries it will drain them. Batteries is a nice option if the power goes out and it won't be back on for awhile - at least you will still be able to sleep. I leave mine on all night and turn off when I wake up but it has an option to stay on for I believe 60 minutes.
If you need a white noise machine - buy this one. It is cheap, works and can be turned up very loud if needed. Also it has a big on/off button which makes it easy to use after the lights are off.
Edit - 04/16/2017. I have bought a total of 3 of these and I still use one to sleep every single night. Yes, you can hear the loop which can drive a person crazy but I have noticed if I put it on the outdoorsy one (the one you can hear crickets) I can't seem to hear the loop like I can on the white noise one (which that one you can hear the loop and almost imagine a word being repeated (which varies with what your mind comes up with)). I still feel this is the best machine out of all the other brands, I have bought and you definitely get your money's worth. I did buy mine years ago (2 or 3?) so they could be made not as good now, not sure. Oh, and I'm still using the first one I bought, just bought multiples because of having rude ignorant loud neighbors.
