Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I purchased this product to provide a calling environment for my 6 month old to sleep. It works pretty well, but some improvements can be made. Pros: -Lots of choices for the light show. There are a wide number of light patterns to choose from. There are three brightness settings, plus the ability to turn off the lights. There is also a darkening lens, so a total of seven brightness levels are available. Regardless of how much light is desired, you should be able to find something that suits your needs. -Light patterns aren't too repetitive and lots of color combinations and patterns are available. This keeps it interesting for adults and babies. -There are six sounds to choose from in addition to Bluetooth, so there are lots of choices there, too. The sounds also are not overly repetitive. -There is a remote control. -The device has a sleep timer. Cons: -The remote is not backlit. -The remote uses IR technology as opposed to RF. This means that there must be a line of sight between the remote and the IR sensor on the device. This limits where you can place the device in the room and you may have to hit a button more than once before the device reacts. -Volume can be adjusted for Bluetooth audio; however, if volume can be adjusted for any of the pre-programmed white noise sounds, I haven't figured out how to adjust it. If I don't have the device on before I bring my baby into the room, turning it on will wake baby up because sure noise volume can't be turned on and adjusted up gradually. -The speaker lacks bass, so white noise doesn't cover the full audible spectrum. Because babies seem to find lower frequencies soothing, it doesn't work quite as well as it could. If you're willing to work around the shortcomings, this item works very well. With a few design tweaks, it would be perfect.
