Summary: Excellent!
Comment: I have been using the Marpac sound conditioner for a couple of weeks now, and it certainly beats my old air purifier (which rattled and growled a bit, and for which now-hard-to-find filters cost a third the price of the machine).
Besides the quality of the item itself, Marpac provided excellent documentation, explaining the possibility of the need for a personal breaking-in of sorts, while one habituates to the machine. VERY thoughtful, and probably based on research/user comments. I got used to it quite rapidly.
I like it! I live in an apartment building, where even comparatively light ambient noise can startle someone at the edge of sleep. It works for me, and I hope it will for you, too.

Summary: Masks annoying sounds, but makes its own.
Comment: As another reviewer said, this product sounds like it is in a hurry to get somewhere. It's an urgent, straining sound. I tried for a couple of weeks, but couldn't get used to it. It does mask other sounds well, though, so if its own sound doesn't bother you, it would work well. I wanted something that sounds like a box fan, but this sounds more like the vent in the bathroom.

Summary: Ahhhh...peaceful sleep
Comment: This type product was recommended to me by a friend. I wish I'd found it so much sooner! I'm a light sleeper and the slightest noise from my apartment neighbours would awaken me at any time. Now let them play their music or squeek the floors - it just doesn't matter!
I like the way you can change the 'white noise' level, or frequency of sound. It would get 5 stars but it doesn't sound perfect the way the air filter in my Massage Therapist's room sounds. That's a personal quibble though.
If you have trouble sleeping because of background noises then this could be your answer.

Summary: Couldn't be happier
Comment: I researched white noise machines for a month before purchasing this one and I have not been disappointed. The noise comes from a fan rather than a loop which is more relaxing. It really helps drown out unwanted noise. A recent houseguest borrowed it for a night and decided to purchase one for her own house.

Summary: Loving it!!!!
Comment: This product is absolutely perfect for me. I use it all the time. It only took a few days to get used to the sound. At first I would put it on while just walking around cleaning. Then I used it while taking daytime naps, and then graduated to evening. I now take it with me when traveling and it really blocks out the outside noise. I recently went down the shore for the weekend and everyone complained of the noises throughout the night, but not I!!! I highly recommend it!!!
