Dreaming with the Dreamegg
Most people are likely unaware that a part of the population suffers from a constant ringing in their ears, usually caused by destruction of the tiny hair cells in the middle ear. This can be caused by infections, toxins, or loud noises like gun shots or rock concerts. On top of a number of ear infections suffered as a child, I was poisoned by cobalt from an ill-conceived hip implant about nine years ago. Instead of going quiet when they are destroyed, the hair cell anchors begin to emit a constant tone. The effect on the sufferer can range from minor nuisance to unrelenting torture, depending on the severity to the injury.I have what I suspect is a moderate case. For me, it is worst in the stillness of night. The constant ringing can actually interfere with sleep. Many sufferers, including many who don't even recognize what they are suffering from will turn on a fan at night to mask the ringing. I have done this most of my life. A few years ago, anticipating a cruise in Europe, I was looking for ways to provide this 'white noise' without having to pack a bulky fan that would be useless because of its need for standard American voltage. I knew something of white noise generators, so I began to search. I found a spiffy unit that cost more than twice the current price of the Dreamegg. It looks like a little a little radio, with lots of knobs and buttons. Thus did I learn of the advantages of the sound generator over the fan. It uses much less power, is more compact, and won't chill you if you don't need it.The Dreamegg D1 has just become available. Looking for a more compact unit that was also easier to travel with, I got myself one. I am extremely happy with this unit! First, the size, look and feel of it. It is round, smooth and compact; though small it feels substantial in your hand, firm, not flimsy. All controls are incorporated into the seamless top panel. Clearly labeled, they can be located simply by feel as the switches are beneath indentations in the panel. The controls encircle a pleasant night light; something that my more expensive unit lacks. The nightlight is adjustable; either constant, or "breathing mode" which I haven't tried out yet.The sound options are impressive. You can select between nature sounds, white noise and fan sounds, and each of those categories have seven options! Count 'em, seven! I like that number. The nature sounds are pleasant; musical. The white noise and fan sounds come in different keys and textures and you're certain to find one that pleases your ears. The volume can be adjusted from whisper quiet to too loud, and by that I mean that I can't imagine that this machine will disappoint anyone by being too quiet to satisfy their needs.I routinely climb into bed after turning off the light, then reach up and turn on my sound machine. When I first unwrapped this beauty, I imagined that I would need to glue a bump to the on/off switch to find it easily in the dark but here's the thing: The Dreamegg is heavy enough and sits firmly enough on the bedside stand that it is not easily moved, so the on/off button remains at the two-o'clock position consistently; easy to locate.For my travel needs, the unit is very compact and occupies only a small corner of my suitcase. The power cord plugs into a USB port, so it can be easily supplied by a small USB/AC adapter, or plugged directly into a USB port which can be found in most hotel rooms these days. I assume USB ports in Europe are the same as American ones, so you encounter no problems coping with the voltage difference.I cannot address durability yet. That requires time. This attractive unit would incorporate harmoniously into a nursery and though the instructions caution you to keep it dry, it looks like it is likely water resistant to some extent. I have yet to find anything to complain about with this unit and am very happy with this purchase.

We now own 3 of these and use them daily
The BEST sound machine. Easy to use, the sounds are enjoyable unlike some sound machines that come across too harsh. The nightlight option is great for adding a little extra light during the night (but doesn’t have to be on for the sound to work). Volume controls are easy to adjust. All of our kids/babies have one in their room.

Exactly what we needed
Great product. Sound quality is great, good sound options and compact size.We were worried that it wouldn’t work in an Australian plug but it worked no problems.The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is that I wish it was rechargeable and a few of the sound options you can hear a slight loop - majority don’t have loop.I’m even thinking of buying another one for my other son!
