LectroFan Evo - White Noise Machine and Non-Looping Fan Sounds with Sleep Timer (Black)

This machine is a life saver. Living on the high street, my sleep was constantly disrupted by traffic noise 24/7. I had tried countless solutions, earplugs, noise-cancelling earphones, and more, but nothing worked. That all changed when I started using this machine. Since then, I haven't been disturbed by traffic noise once.It took me a few nights to experiment with the different sounds and volume levels. This machine has10 different colour noises,10 (or 13?) fan sounds, and a few ocean noises. Surprisingly, quite funny, the best option for me turned out to be classic white noise. Even more interestingly, I found that I didn’t need to play it too loud. Just a gentle humming background noise was enough to mask the traffic during sleep.If you're struggling with noise disturbances at night, I can't recommend this enough!

Noisy neighbours? Building work? Elderly parents with loud tv? Or just can’t switch off?This noise machine has aided both myself and friends I’ve bought it for. It doesn’t work miracles- if someone is drilling in an adjoining wall, even ear plugs and this Lectrofan Evo combined would struggle to hold such noise and vibration at bay.But it can really help. I recommend.

It does exactly what’s supposed to do :) easy to use, not too bulky. Recommended

The EVO is a small matte plastic box, the same shape as a 50p coin but about four inches on a side and sloping to the front, with a number of buttons on the top surrounded by a metal speaker grille. Its only other features are a 3.5mm headphone socket and a thin built-in cable, about four feet long, which leads to a USB-A female connector. A wall plug is provided but I can plug it into a USB-A port on my desktop PC and it is powered. There is no battery, no display, no LED, no Bluetooth and no smartphone support.The noise can be anything from barely audible to astonishingly loud, controlled by a pair of buttons. Another pair of buttons cycle between 10 whitish noises (brown through pink to white), 10 fan noises (anything from "industrial fan" through "exhaust fan" to "oscillating fan") and also ocean and surf effects. The quality of the noises/effects is excellent - there is no indication whatsoever of repetition or looping.Another button allows a timer to be set (one to eight hours); otherwise, the EVO runs continuously. The only other substantial options are a switch between continuous and oscillating noise level and a factory reset - both are done through combinations of buttons.Power consumption is tiny - according to my smart plug, 1 watt.The EVO concentrates on generating and playing noise and has no frills. In my situation it is stunningly effective - noisy upstairs neighbours are completely blocked out, far short of the highest volume setting. It can even fully block the noise of a big Coway air purifier running at its highest setting a few feet from me, which is astonishing.It is far superior to the smartphone/white noise app/Bluetooth speaker combination suggested by various sources, not least because it is zero maintenance.Four stars because £80 is expensive no matter the quality (I got my EVO for a discount, £65). However, it is a great example of a device that performs a well-defined task without fuss but has excellent design and hides a lot of sophistication behind a few buttons.

If you are looking for a product to block out the background noise in your home and do not want to waste money buying a fan or heater, this is what you should buy.You are able to vary the volume of sound for different types of background noise.Product comes with an international plug adapter, so whilst you are travelling to a new country you do not need to worry about an additional adapter.Also, I have to recommend the seller for his customer service and for the excellent product.

I bought this to use in my toddlers room (we're currently living with an elderly relative who likes to slam doors and make cups of tea at 4am) because her room is over the kitchen. She adores it! She likes the sea sounds because they remind her of 'hodderday' (we had a seaside hol this year) and she calls the device her 'mate' and likes to be in charge of switching it on. The controls are so easy, she can now switch it on, set a timer for 4 hours and choose her noise. She's 2 and a half - that's how simple this device is to use. I'm also planning to use it at work - I'm a therapist so it's going to be great for extra privacy during sessions when the building is noisy. 100% would recommend this product!!

I live in a busy cul-de-sac and, as a light sleeper, tend to get woken a lot. I normally use a fan for white noise but it's getting too cold. I bought this device and tried it last night and it worked exactly how I wanted it to, right out of the box. Must have taken all of 30 seconds to connect it, turn it on, and select the right sound and volume. Played all night with no detectable "loop". This morning I was about to turn off my fan when I remembered...It comes with USB cable and UK plug with European adapter. It also has a headphone socket. The buttons are:- power on/off- timer (haven't tried that yet)- white noise (10 sounds with increasing pitch, plus two others: "Ocean" and "Surf")- fan noise (10 sounds)- volume down- volume upTo select a noise, press the white noise or fan buttons until you find the one. The sounds loop with the first preceded by a distinct noise so you know you're on the first one. I was able to find a noise pretty close to that made by my desktop fan.

By far my best buy in 2024. This goes with me even when I travel. Not even the construction across my apartment can disturb my sleep.
