This is my first experience using a white noice machine.  There are 6 sounds to choose from.  The "summer night" and "rain" sounds are my favorite although, all of the sounds (except the white noice) are better than I expected.  The "white noise" sound is fine too, for what it is.
The buttons and printing on this machine are easy to read and simple to understand.  This was important to me since I keep it by my bedside and don't want to have to put on my reading glasses to set the sounds or the timer. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
