I don't write reviews for things I buy very often, but this little machine has changed my life so much that I have to. Whoever invented this should be nominated for the Nobel Prize. This thing is a miracle machine. My son is 20 months old and I can count the number of times that he slept through the night on one hand-- that is until about 3 weeks ago when we bought this machine. I saw the concept of an "ok to wake" alarm but was not sure if it would work for a kid as young as mine. Then I saw a review from a lady with an 18 month old who seemed to have a similar sleep pattern to my son. My son would wake up 3-4 times every night and need some degree of soothing to go back down. If he woke up after about 3-4 am (what we came to know as 'the witching hour'), there would be no hope of getting him to go deeply back to sleep and the best you could do was get him to lay down and nod off for 15 minute increments for as long as you could. That worked best with one of sleeping on the ground beside the crib. At some point, he would wake fully up, and at that point there would be no getting him back to sleep. You just had to wake up and start the day with him. We tried really hard to at least get him to 5 am, but it didn't always work. 5:30 was a stretch goal and 6 seemed like a near impossibility. Enter the hatch. I followed the procedure used by the lady whose review I read-- I set the alarm for 5:30 on the first night after having a talk with him before bed about how the red light meant it was time to sleep and green meant it was ok to wake up. When he woke up in the night, we told him over the baby monitor that the light was still red so he would need to lay down. To our surprise, he actually did after a few minutes. He whined a little bit but didn't start to cry like he normally would if we didn't go in the room. He woke up fully that morning before the light turned green and started crying out for us. Like the woman described, I reset the wake time for about 5 minutes out so he would not have to spend so long in distress. Then when the light turned green, I went in and made a big production of how the light was green so he could wake up. Each day I set the time a few minutes later until we finally got to where it is currently set-- 6:15. I'm not sure why, but he just gets it. It took a couple of weeks of him waking in the night and whining for us but going easily back to sleep when we tell him over the speaker that the red light means it's still night night time. After a few weeks of that he does it completely on his own. If he wakes up, he looks at the red light and just goes back to sleep. Most nights now he sleeps fully through the night and does not wake up until after 6. If he happens to wake up fully before it turns green, he lays down watching it until it turns green then pops up. He's sleeping so well that he's in a great mood when he wakes up. We are sleeping better than we have in a long time ourselves. The thing isn't perfect-- I find the app a little wonky thought it is reasonably easy to use. I think it's a bit difficult to change the routine or wake time while the current routine is running. When you try, it just turns the machine off. That's annoying if you are trying to make a change while he is sleeping. Some of the more advanced features like the stories and lullabies are a bit too complicated for our boy I think. We keep it simple with orange light and quiet music to wind down with books before bed, red light with the ocean sound effect for sleep (I recommend a pretty good volume) and green light to wake up (keeping the sound going so he won't be woken by the change in sound and will still sleep if his body wants to). If we start wanting to encourage him to wake up at a certain time I think I will have the sounds change to birds chirping. Long story short-- this thing changed our lives, and I just gifted one to a friend who is expecting a baby to give her the gift of sleep.

We’ve been using the Hatch Rest since our baby was a newborn, and honestly, it’s become a non-negotiable part of our sleep routine. The brown noise is like magic - it helps drown out all the little household sounds and signals to our baby that it’s time to wind down. Now, when it’s on, she knows it’s bedtime. And honestly? It helps us sleep better too lol, but be careful in the very beginning with a new born - we slept TOOOO good due to lack of sleep and were lucky my mom was there to feed & change her because we were dead to the world. What we love: • The sounds are soothing - brown noise is our go-to, but there are lots of options if you want to switch things up. • App control is a lifesaver. I love the option of being able to adjust the volume, light, or turn it on/off from our phone means no tiptoeing into the nursery and being able todo it while rocking baby to sleep. Of course with conveniency there comes a price, which is a monthly subscription lol. • The brightness is adjustable which is good • It grows with your child. We haven’t used the OK-to-wake clock yet, but it’s nice to know it’ll still be useful once we’re out of the baby stage. • Reliable and easy to use. Once it’s set up, it’s very plug-and-play. We have a schedule set and rarely think about it - which is a huge win in the fog of early parenting. What could be better: • The app isn’t always perfect. Sometimes it’s slow to connect, or it randomly logs us out. When you’re holding a half-asleep baby and trying to turn down the volume quickly, this can be super annoying. • Sometimes when you go to touch it to turn it on or off it’s a little wonky, but for the most part it’s pretty spot on. • It’s pricey. If you’re on a budget, you can get a basic white noise machine for a lot less. But the Hatch’s features do add convenience. At the end of the day, this little machine is on every night (and every nap), and we truly rely on it. Yes, it has quirks, but the good far outweighs the bad. If you’re building a sleep routine, this can be a real game changer.

Great sound machine. I’ve used it for all 3 toddlers. Battery life isn’t great and will randomly turn off if not plugged in so beware of that. Good size and doesn’t take too much space. Worth the purchase as it has helped all my kids sleep through the night.

Me llego antes de tiempo, es como en la foto, me gusto

We have been using the Hatch Sound Machine for our toddler since the day he was born, and it has been such a staple in our home that we recently purchased a second one for our baby who is due soon. One of the biggest advantages is that everything is connected through Bluetooth and controlled through the app. The app is very user-friendly and intuitive, even if you’re not tech-savvy. There are many free sounds to choose from, and I love that you can save favourites with the exact volume and light colour you want. For sleep, we use white noise with a red light, and we have it scheduled so that at a certain time in the morning the light turns green and calm music plays. This has been amazing for helping our toddler understand when it’s time to sleep and when it’s okay to get up. It’s made mornings much smoother for everyone. Another feature we really appreciate is being able to control both sound machines through the same app. It’s so convenient to adjust volume, sounds, or lighting without needing to go into the room and risk waking a sleeping child — something you can’t easily do with many similar products. If you prefer not to use the app, the buttons on the back work perfectly fine as well. My toddler is even able to use it independently now that he’s out of the crib — tapping the top ring to turn it on and holding it to turn it off. Overall, this sound machine has been reliable, easy to use, and incredibly helpful for establishing sleep routines. We’ve had ours for years and it’s still working perfectly. Highly recommend, especially for families with young children.

Always wanted to get one with my first baby. I got to get one with second and absolutely love it. Being able to see the clock is brilliant. Still figuring things out as it arrived today but so far so good. My newborn slept within seconds each nap. Also thanks for quick delivery 🙌🏼

Great night light! but will need to subscribe for more sound options

Après avoir payer cher il demande encore de payer pour avoir accès à plus de musiques , c’est une blague
