Personal Experience
The HoMedics Deep Sleep sound machine is geared towards those who specifically want white noise to help them sleep (or stay asleep) and those who are particular about the distinct tone. It offers four different white noise options: Soothe, Mask, Relax and Calm. Here is how HoMedics describes each type:- “Soothe” is like a gentle rain and the lightest pitched tone that gently eases your mind
- “Mask” is designed to mask external distractions including noisy neighbors and highway traffic
- “Relax” is modulated to disrupt interfering room noise, such as a snoring partner
- “Calm” is the deepest of all the tone settings, which is perfect for tinnitus sufferers and small children
Once people have picked the white noise version they like, they can adjust the tone (the pitch that is emphasized most) by clicking the plus or minus signs next to the “Tone” label on the machine.
There is also an auto-timer that lets people play the white noise for 30, 60 or 90 minutes before turning off. If people would like the machine to run all night, that’s an option as well (just don’t click on the auto-timer).
All in all, the interface is very simple to use, but there are several areas of blue light that do become visible in the dark. Some people have reported that this can be distracting, and I did have to place something over it to block the light and keep it from bothering me.
Based on other reviews I’ve read on the product, it seems that the quality can be hit or miss with this product. Many start out loving it but find that either the buttons will stop working or the sound quality will start to lessen over time.
I do really like how lightweight and portable it is, and this is an easy white noise machine to take with you on business trips or to put in your child’s room if you’re in a new place (or even in your own home). It works on batteries if people don’t have access to an outlet – however, they can drain pretty quick.

Read Full ReviewA Note On Volume
If people are planning to use the HoMedics Deep Sleep white noise machine, or any other type of sound machine overnight in their room or a family member’s room, they should be aware of the volume level. The World Health Organization recommends that anyone planning to use a sound machine for more than 8 hours should do so at a volume of fewer than 85 decibels. Louder than that and you may be putting your hearing at risk. Parents who put a sound machine in their children’s rooms should speak with a pediatrician about an appropriate volume level.
The HoMedics Deep Sleep does not have a decibel meter on the machine, but you can easily use a free app on your smartphone to find the decibel level – there are many free options to choose from.
