You can actually see with this light too if you’re doing diaper changes as well. I love all the light settings too! I use the red light for MOTN nursing sessions since it doesn’t wake up the nervous system like yellow light does. Sometimes if we have guests over and I see LO stirring on his baby camera, I can up the white noise volume without entering the room and potentially disturbing him more. I also like how you can control it from your phone. My previous sound machine, we had to scroll through every setting to get to the one LO likes and it was very disruptive. I love how you can save your regularly used noise, light color, volume, and brightness to your favorites so it’s always ready to go at the touch of a button. My friend recommended the Hatch and it’s amazing. This is the one baby product I cannot live without! We started with a different sound machine that wouldn’t get loud enough. Wish it just had buttons (on/off, volume, program select). The touch interface regularly doesn’t do what I want it to do. You’ve got to note the settings go to Programs and make the change.ĥ) The lack of buttons on the thing kind of sucks. If you adjust a preset it’s sort of a pain to save the change. And, you can’t combine them.Ĥ) The software interface is clunky. It would take a decent programmer a minute to write something to fade to 0 over a set duration.ģ) The sounds are really bottom of the barrel and there are not many choices. It also doesn’t transition from one sound program to another well. Ideally, masking noise is supposed to be unobtrusive. The sound quality is about as bad as it gets.Ģ) You can’t ramp the volume up/down. LSS: No one in the audio world designed this. I turned on the Washing Machine setting just to check myself - if this sounds like a washing machine to you you should go see a doctor. It’s a marketer’s rendition of what a baby noise machine should look like. Without getting technical, there’s a reason you don’t see any speakers shaped like this on the market ANYWHERE. Clip.Īnyway I combing this thread to find our alternative for travel.ġ) The sound quality is bad. So I just had to unwind a key chain to create a stand-in for a freaking paper clip to reset the thing. We just arrived on an international vacation, immediately trying to get LO down for the first nap since she woke up at 4am and the hatch wouldn’t turn on. Getting it connected to a new wifi is an ordeal.Īnd not infrequently you get the joy of having to reset it entirely. Ease of use on the device itself is a total afterthought here. Bear in mind you’re usually trying to mess with things in the dark/on no sleep/on the sky so you don’t disturb LO. The volume and brightness buttons are very delayed and seem to jump from 0-60, deafening and blinding you. The touch on/off seems great (and yes is super for having even a six month old help out in the bedtime routine) until you need to move the thing and it starts cycling through settings. Why isn’t there a damn on/off switch?īetter yet those two buttons are on the opposite side of the display, which tells you if you have successfully turned it on/off. Ten seconds may not sound like a long time to someone who doesn’t have a walking 10 month old but those people shouldn’t be designing baby’s white noise machines. Turning it off requires holding two buttons that are nearly indistinguishable from the other two buttons you aren’t supposed to hold for TEN seconds. It’s been great at home but as a result it is The White Noise machine for our kiddo. Hatch is great if you NEVER plan to bring it out of the house ie on trips.
