SNOOZ White Noise Machine

A white noise machine (also known as a sleep machine) produces peaceful, soothing background noise that helps mask disturbances in your sleep environment and serves as an environmental cue for your brain that it is time to sleep. The SNOOZ White Noise Machine contains a mechanical fan that spins to generate calming white noise. 

But it can do much more than help you go to sleep at home in your own room. It can also help with meditation, insomnia, and difficulty sleeping in a hotel room.

The SNOOZ White Noise Machine can help you fall asleep and stay asleep by reducing environmental disturbances. 

By increasing the baseline level of sound in a room, SNOOZ reduces the difference between room noise and a “containment noise,” thereby masking many noises and reducing the “startle factor” of others.

Further, the white noise from SNOOZ can also serve as an environmental cue for your brain – a trigger that it’s time to sleep.

The SNOOZ portable sound machine can produce sounds that range from a light fan sound (similar to an oscillating stand fan) toor a deep fan sound (that you might associate with an airplane cabin).

Rather than rely on looping recordings of background noise or nature sounds, your SNOOZ White Noise Machine generates its sound in real-time so it never repeats and is truly random.

Smartphone apps may be convenient, but phone speakers are incapable of producing full-spectrum, natural sound like SNOOZ.

Think about playing music – phone speakers are great in a pinch but, if you’re going to spend time listening, you’re going to want to find headphones or better speakers.

SNOOZ was designed to generate the best possible fan sound for sleeping. Part of that means that its tone and volume are adjustable. Also, unlike a fan, SNOOZ is travel friendly, doesn’t blow unwanted cold air (in the winter, for instance), uses a fraction of the energy, and includes advanced features in the free iOS and Android companion apps.

SNOOZ sounds like a fan. On the one end of the spectrum, SNOOZ produces light fan sound (that you might hear from an oscillating stand fan), on the other end, SNOOZ produces a deep fan sound (that you might associate with an airplane cabin). You can adjust the tone to your liking by rotating the outer shell.

No, SNOOZ is designed to convert nearly all the energy of the fan into generating sound, and notmoving air around a room. For this reason, at an equal sound decibel level, SNOOZ uses up to 98% less energy than a typical box fan. As a result, you get that same familiar fan sound, but nearly zero disturbance to the surrounding air.

Yes, but because SNOOZ is designed to help you sleep, the lights turn off automatically after a few seconds – and they can be entirely disabled if you’d prefer. 

The SNOOZ companion app enables you to enable “Dark Mode” so that you can disable the touchpad lights from turning on (even when you’re controlling SNOOZ with the touchpad).

When measured directly next to the device, SNOOZ is capable of being as loud as 87 dBA.

Nope! The app provides extra features (such as a remote control, fade in / fade out scheduling, and nursery calibration). SNOOZ works perfectly fine without ever being connected to a smartphone. Tone and volume can be adjusted on the device itself.

Technically, “white noise” is a random mixture of sound frequencies produced at equal intensity (like an old TV or FM radio static) and is fairly displeasing to the ear. 

However, white noise in the context of sleep devices (perhaps better termed “colloquial white noise”), refers to a mix of frequencies biased to the lower end of the spectrum. In this way, the sound is more pleasing to the ear while still masking environmental disturbances.

The best white noise for sleeping is that which never loops (which defeats the purpose!) and sounds good (you’ll be listening to it for 8 hours a night, after all!). We think that means white noise that is generated in real-time by a fan: No looping tracks, no low-quality phone speakers – just the soothing sound of moving air.

Anyone can benefit from the gentle sound of a white noise machine, including adults, kids, and even babies. As any parent knows, babies can go through phases during which it’s hard for them to fall asleep. A white noise sound machine for your baby produces sounds that can have a calming effect, helping your baby go to sleep.
