Marpac Yogasleep Dohm DS 240V Classic Natural White Noise Machine

Its a great product and does the job but can get very cold in winter as its really a fan on the inside! (Posted on 7/7/23 )

This is an excellent white noise maker. I actually had the same one when I lived in the US. The only downside is the Australian version (since it runs on different voltage) doesn't actually have two settings but it's not that big of a deal, really. It does the job!

Very quick shipping from Sleep Solutions. I think it shipped the day after I ordered it and I got it within a few days. (Posted on 1/4/23 )

This machine is great, it allows me to get to sleep at night and not wake up too early in the morning when our next-door Neighbour starts his car early in the morning to go to work. (Posted on 10/1/23 )

I love the product, which helps my baby get into sleep easier and quicker. In addition, I am thankful to the customer service who offered me high quality service and support! Best experience ever had! (Posted on 21/10/22 )

I got a little confused researching white noise machines so called Sleep Solutions for some advice. I was trying to block traffic noise and my loud pet cat that yells from 5am onwards. I went with the Marpac Yogasleep Dohm 240V which was more slightly more expensive than other options that have recorded sounds on loop, well worth the investment. The Yogasleep is fan-based which gives a natural air sound (like a ceiling fan) without the disturbance of actual moving air, it has heaps of adjustability of tone and volume and it plugs in to the mains power. Communication from Sleep Soutions was great and postage was fast, set up was easy. (Posted on 26/4/22 )

Second one I've bought - previous one worked well for years (Posted on 9/1/22 )

This machine produces the perfect sound for sleep. The rotating outer means that I can select the perfect sound for me. Highly recommend! (Posted on 24/12/21 )

My baby was a terrible sleeper. The Marpac dohm solved the problem.
One of the best products I have ever bought in my entire life, no exaggerating.
Tried white noise apps beforehand and these were just annoying.
We all have a dohm in our bedrooms now and all sleep well even though we live on noisy street.
(Posted on 25/8/21 )

We live on a busy street and this muffles that noise, it is exactly what I expected and I could not be happier with it.
First time turning on it could seem loud, try for two nights and I think you will be more than happy.
Try a timer so that it turns of after a few hours if worried about waking you after a deep sleep..
As above more than happy with this purchase, thank you very much. (Posted on 27/9/20 )

This machine is brilliant. I personally don't wont to hear Orca wales or rainforest birds, but pure white noise. This machine has such a broad range of adjustment you have to be able to find a frequency range and noise level that fits the bill. Nothing less than 5 Stars. Sleep solutions, purchasing ease, communication, delivery options, quality range. Nothing less than 5 stars here fella. Already looking at the next purchase. Please don't change anything or sell the business. Lovin it. Grant Maryland NSW (Posted on 7/8/20 )

We found the white noise from the Marpac Dohm DS 240V did not prevent us from sleeping as we thought it might do.
The Machine was placed near the wall of the adjoining apartment in our bedroom and the late night, loud talking of our neighbors was reduced effectively enough for us to sleep through the night undisturbed.
We are glad we bought it! (Posted on 24/7/20 )

Works extremely well. Noise is perfect for our needs. It masks other voices and night sounds. Using it for elderly patient (who still has reasonable hearing) in a nursing home. It is a compact. (Posted on 14/7/20 )

Not happy at all (Posted on 27/6/20 )

look for a better product this one is very disappointing (Posted on 14/4/20 )

This is great for helping my kids sleep in a little longer. If you have kids that are light sleepers the dawn chorus, although beautiful can wake them up early. This seems to help block out those sounds by providing a white noise background... big thumbs up. (Posted on 9/3/20 )

This does exactly what it says it does. Allows me to manage my environment at work and at home without relying on people to be considerate. In that sense, offers a welcome dose of freedom! (Posted on 10/12/19 )

Great product. Used in my daughters room and we also take it when we travel in our caravan. Helps the kids sleep well to block out the other campers chatting at night and the early morning birds. (Posted on 11/8/19 )

It works for me even for the occasional afternoon nap. The Sleepmate seems to be a solid well made product that does what it’s supposed to do. I’ve found your company a pleasure to deal with. Thank you for your prompt response to my order. (Posted on 8/4/19 )

Highly recommend. This is my second Sleepmate white noise machine, replacing one purchased some 12+ years ago. I first tried replacing it with an electronic white noise machine however prefer the mechanical wooshing sounds. Living in an apartment and find it useful for blocking outside night time noises especially neighbours coming home late at night. I appreciate white noise machines don't suit/work for everyone however suggest for those starting out to to give it a go it can take a week or more to get used to. (Posted on 1/3/19 )

The new rail extension in our suburb has 980 trains passing within 12 metres of my bedroom wall each week, day and night, impossible to sleep, health suffered, sore ears from ear plugs which didn’t work. I’m so relieved to have my Dohm machine. Slept well from the day I received it. Thank you so very much.

It mentioned in it's sale pitch that was useful for snorers the volume in only two levels and is nowhere near loud enough to drown out snoring or road noises for the matter. It was quite expensive so I'm fairly disappointed. (Posted on 20/12/18 )

I live on a busy road and this has been a massive help with my sleep. My first one lasted around four years, and I ordered another one as soon as it packed it in (Posted on 24/10/18 )

We have now purchased two! One for our room and one for our child’s room. We live on a busy road and this really dulls the noise. (Posted on 2/9/18 )

I was after a device that makes a nice, soothing sound. It was to replace fans that I used for many years to relax me and help me get to sleep. The modern fans are much more noisy now, so I thought the SleepMate would be a good alternative.
Unfortunately I don’t find its sounds relaxing, it keeps me awake. I don’t fortunately need anything to block out extraneous sounds.
I will add that I have just purchased, for nearly $400, one of those expensive fans without blades, so you can see I am serious about the right background sounds while I sleep.
I will say that your company were incredibly quick about delivering the product to me. It was only two days, and I live in a regional South Australian town. (Posted on 2/8/18 )

Fantastic product & possibly the speediest delivery of all time!!! Thank you Sleep Solutions! Amazing (Posted on 24/7/18 )

Happy with the unit. Blocks out the traffic very well. (Posted on 10/5/18 )

Brilliant product and I was surprised at how quickly it arrived. Thank you! (Posted on 3/5/18 )

Blocks outside noise such as cars if you live close to a busy road (Posted on 11/3/18 )

I received this in the post within a few days of ordering. I originally thought this machine was too loud but with the three different methods of adjustment I was pleasantly surprised. The machine feels solid and worthy and does not cause a rattle on whatever it sits. The noise really does sound like a fan. I am very happy with my white noise maker and look forward to a long relationship. (Posted on 7/3/18 )

A life changer/saver for someone with acute hearing.. (Posted on 10/9/17 )

A cheap fan will achieve better results for blocking noise than this unit. Can get much better results by having a cheap fan next to your bed as its much louder than the unit itself.. face fan away if too cold and you're winning. Not worth the money at all. (Posted on 4/6/17 )

We used to run a fan all year to drown out our naughty cat, who tries to break into the bedroom at night because she's bored. It's not quite loud enough to drown out her miaows, but at least we're no longer sleeping in a wind tunnel! I would definitely recommend this product. (Posted on 4/6/17 )

We had been considering getting a noise machine for about 1.5 years, but instead continued using a fan - what a mistake!.... The noise machine has such a lovely "hum" to it and doesn't blow dust or breeze around the room, which is good in the middle of winter!... small footprint and so many different levels of sound from the machine using the casing. Absolutely love it, thinking of getting another one for the spare room. (Posted on 31/5/17 )

Unfortunately I bought the Marpac originally through Amazon and it had the US endings. I bought a converter and the machine caught fire because the machine can only take 120 V and Australian outlets provide double.
So far the Australian version is going well. If you can't sleep, what's $120 to possibly find your solution? (Posted on 18/5/17 )

The product is too loud. Found it does not block out a lot of noises. A playing soft music works better. (Posted on 2/5/17 )

The white noise blocks out other noises ,but it is too loud.
When placed in adjoining room with the door almost closed , seemed to work best.
Not so happy with purchase. (Posted on 7/3/17 )

Bought two, one for each of my twin's rooms as they bad sleepers and wake each other up. In a small house, it has helped with drowning out everyday house noises, including the other twin waking, people visiting, dog barking etc. I especially like the many sound options and being able to make quieter at night or louder if more noise going on. It's also portable and easy to pack when going away. I've had no complaints with this product. (Posted on 5/3/17 )

Finally I get a deep sleep every night with the white noise machine. It really makes a huge difference to my life (Posted on 14/12/16 )

I was a very light sleeper and any sound no matter how slight would keep me awake, leaving me deprived and wanting a good nights sleep. The SleepMate has finally resolved my need for sound sleep. My first experience with this unit was while on a holiday in the USA and the hotel room had this unit as part of the fittings, being curious to try anything once I found this unit actually worked fantastically. On my return to Australia I purchased the SleepMate White Noise Machine and have resolved my long time sleep disorder ever since using this great product. I am certainly pleased to have discovered this solution and would recommend it to anyone with similar sleep disorder issues. (Posted on 7/12/16 )

Fantastic solution for keeping out all the sounds of the forest which is just next to our house.
The best decision I ever made and very grateful that such a device can be so effective and live up to all its claims. (Posted on 30/11/16 )

Too loud for pleasant sleeping under normal conditions even at lowest functioning level ie 3 holes. There needs to be a lower operating setting for generally quiet conditions rather than heavier background noise. (Posted on 27/11/16 )

I first bought this seven years ago and it has completely changed my life. Just bought a new one and it is every bit as good as the old model. Sleep is priceless, thanks for providing an excellent solution (Posted on 10/11/16 )

Good product. Excellent for deadening noise. It sounds just like a fan and has good adjustment to suit your individual preference. Quite small and easy to transport if needed. (Posted on 30/10/16 )

My daughters both have these in their bedrooms and have had for ten years plus...I highly recommend these machines for light sleepers. The only reason that we had to buy a replacement was because the power cord was accidentally severed! Other than that it would still been going, very much worth the money :) (Posted on 2/8/16 )

The mechanical 'white' noise generator works for me really well. I have tried electronic white noise generators but this sounds like an aircon or fan so its more 'natural'. I will be buying another for work. The only thing is that when the switch is in position 2 it does not seem to be very different to the sound of position 1. But still highly recommended. (Posted on 24/7/16 )

Very good at helping me sleep through my husband snoring, my daughter can sleep through the noisy neighbours and we have one for travel as well. Well worth it! (Posted on 17/7/16 )

Family member who works a rotating roster, this product surprised them. Worth a try cheaper than soundproofing a room. (Posted on 13/7/16 )

We purchased a white noise machine to reduce noise / conversation travelling between offices. The machine sounds like a fan and you quickly habituate to the noise, with the fan like noise becoming part of normal background noise while it blocks voices / conversations between offices and creates privacy. (Posted on 4/7/16 )

Love it! (Posted on 3/7/16 )

Read some of the reviews (including some of the mixed reviews). I took a punt and bought the sleepmate. Has transformed my sleep!!! Highly recommend it to anyone sleeping in a place where there are noises that may cause a person to wake during the night. (Posted on 27/5/16 )

The reviews of this product said that it does only one thing but does it very well, and it does. Other products had better features and looked nicer but this had the best rating for noise cancellation. For me, it blocks out about 90% of the external noise. I can't hear the TV in the lounge or the construction outside, only the occasional revving car or motorbike. It takes a while to adjust to the sound of the unit but, after that, it's so easy to get to sleep. I'm so glad that I bought this. (Posted on 17/5/16 )

Having used a small fan for many years I was finally ready to try one of these to save room in my suitcase as a frequent traveler. I've now ditched the fan completely as this makes a much more relaxing noise. I found it a bit rattley when first switched it on but I let it run for a while and now it is perfect. I would highly recommend giving this a go. (Posted on 2/5/16 )

Ordered the sleep machine based on all the positive reviews. I find it blocks some traffic noise not all, as it is loud itself. I cant say it has improved my sleep dramatically as i generally will wake up and turn it off as it ends up being a very annoying sound. Overall i am unhappy with the product and if i could go back in time wouldnt have purchased the product. (Posted on 25/3/16 )

Delivery was fast and hassle free. The product is great and has blocked out road and downstairs noise so I am sleeping much better (Posted on 15/2/16 )

Having used a fan for white noise, have started using this machine when it is too cold to use a fan - what a great product. Sleep for the first time in many years!! Live in units which can be quite noisy with doors slamming and this masks most of the noises. (Posted on 23/1/16 )

I've been meaning to write a review on this in a while! This has been a lifesaver, I have always been a light sleeper and wore ear plugs for years. I started to get tinnitus (ringing ears) from wearing the ear plugs but couldn't give them up either so wasn't sleeping well at all! Ever since I got this sound machine I've weened off ear plugs to just wearing cotton buds and I've found I go to sleep a lot quicker and have had the best sleep in years. Highly recommend (Posted on 5/12/15 )

It certainly helps, but would be improved if a bit louder and if sounded more like a fan's white noise and less like the drone of aircraft engines. Good for noise from children, but not for dogs barking. It is overpriced for what one gets. No rattle yet and I hope it doesn't develop one. (Posted on 1/10/15 )

The noise it makes is just perfect. Helps drown out other irritating noises. We have one in all three bedrooms. (Posted on 24/9/15 )

I have had great success with this machine by putting it on the desk in front of the window where the sound comes in to my bedroom. There has been so much more traffic where I live and this helps me to get a good night's sleep while being able to hear birdsong in the morning, yet most traffic sounds are blocked out enough to help me sleep. Highly recommended. (Posted on 7/9/15 )

I am a chronic insomniac (struggle getting to sleep, not staying asleep) and my bedroom window also happens to face a busy road. Decided to try the Dohm after a particularly bad few months and WOW - all I can say is I wish I bought one earlier. I've found it much more effective than the white noise CDs I've tried in the past and it's loud enough to mask almost all of the traffic noise (not quite sirens). I like how you can adjust the volume too. And best of all, I no longer have to freeze in the middle of winter with a fan on! Even considering taking it overseas with me on an upcoming holiday. (Posted on 24/8/15 )

Don't know why it took me so long to get one of these. Sleeping like a baby again, love it. (Posted on 4/8/15 )

I was looking for a machine that made a slow shushing noise similar to a particular home ventilation system and initially was disappointed that this was a faster sound but a few days of use and I'm happy with this noise it is a constant unchanging sound , that is what i wanted, seems to be doing the job, Im sleeping better. Worth trying. (Posted on 16/6/15 )

I bought this product because my 2-year-old son and 3-month-old daughter share a bedroom. I wanted something to cancel out the noises they each make that might disturb the other. During the warmer months we used the ceiling fan but it is too cold for that now.

I am really happy with our Marpac Sleep Mate. It does the job really well as both of our kids sleep soundly all night. It is also great for their daytime sleeps as it is perfect for cancelling out disturbing daytime sounds such as dogs barking, traffic, the tv, me moving around the house doing chores etc.

I only wish we had one years ago when my husband worked night shift and we had noisy neighbours!

I would definitely recommend this product to other people who wanted a soothing sleeping environment for their baby or small child. (Posted on 7/6/15 )

Had a unit now for 2 weeks and am finally getting a sleep-in. The 6.30am dog alarm next door has been pretty well blocked out. Like most people I had been using a fan for years, but too cold in winter. I live near a busy main road with lots of trucks at night, and I don't hear them anymore. Only worry is I won't hear someone breaking into the house!! I wonder if one can become addicted to these machines and have to take them on holidays etc. It has lived up to expectations, although rather expensive, and delivery was very prompt. (Posted on 28/5/15 )

I purchased this machine to help out with my recent onset of tinnitus. I already was using rain sounds on my Ipod to help me get to sleep, but there are times when my tinnitus is even louder and I need an extra sound to help drown it out. The unit gives me the extra oomph needed on bad nights. It is certainly loud enough for me, and doesn't bother my husband - in fact, on the nights he goes to bed early he now wants it on to drown out the kids being noisy! Would be good for shift workers trying to sleep in the daytime. (Posted on 14/1/15 )

Bought this for my husband who is the lightest sleeper. He used to sleep with the fan on 3....great for his sleep but I froze.
Best of both worlds now he sleeps I'm warmer! (Posted on 27/9/14 )

This machine is a waste of money! It just blows air and sounds like a fan, does not sound like white noise at all, very misleading. Wish I hadn't bothered buying it (Posted on 21/9/14 )

My wife started snoring some 15 years ago. I put up with it for the first 2-3 years. I offered to pay for an operation to stop the 'motor' like noise coming out of her breathing passages. She refused and suggested I get ear plugs. I tried many different types. The ones i have now have proven to be the best at reducing the 'snore machine' by about 80%. The problem with wearing earplugs for so many years is that it has started to irritate my outer ear canal. I needed to find a device to help me make the transition away from the ear plugs. Reading the reviews I was hoping the SleepMate would be the answer. The SleepMate makes a loud(ish) blowing noise (similar to the background humming sound when you hear when you are in an airplane). First night i tried the unit, my wife (ironically) complained that it was too noisy, which i heard loud & clear, so i switched it off. 2nd attempt when she hadn't come to bed yet - I found it blocked outside noises (cars, dogs, sirens etc.) well but not he slamming doors and arguing kids inside the house. I tried again this morning while my wife was in deep sleep and SNORING and realised the old earplugs had to be inserted to enure complete block out (probably 95% block out). Good concept - but i reckon you need something like the noise cancelling concept (a fan comes close by making the air vibrate as well as the hum of the motor). Unfortunately this is not quite as good as had hoped. (Posted on 2/9/14 )

I find I sleep more deeply and wake more rested using these. I've tried plenty of electronic ones, but these are the best. We have one for the kids and one for us.

Service from Sleep Solutions was great. Quick delivery and everything well packed. (Posted on 18/6/14 )

i bought this unit for my babys room in hopes it would block out the sound of the dogs barking and my toddler screaming. unfortunatly it doesnt at all. The fan we use blocks out everything but was making the room too cold so this was my solution that failed. the problem is the unit isnt loud enough. its got a great sound which i could use to sleep with but for noise blocking not very good. (Posted on 12/6/14 )

Seems to work mostly fine. (Posted on 14/9/13 )

I'm very happy with the unit, except I think it could be a bit louder, but have been sleeping well since I purchased lt last month. I would recommend this unit. (Posted on 20/5/13 )

Everybody in our house uses them. I have purchased 4 now and we love them. Works great for kids, blocks out birds, dogs barking, noisy neighbours. I had one rattle and returned it with no hassles at all, very accommodating. I recommend this to everybody. (Posted on 4/5/13 )

Whilst they definitely work for the little ones, we were disappointed that one stopped working and the other has always had a rattle to it. Our $9 fans from Bunnings have outlasted these, although to be fair they get used about 12 hours a day. And we probably should have sent the rattly one back while it was still under warranty and despite the rattle its still working after nearly two years. So I'm giving them an average rating. For the price they should be bullet proof. (Posted on 30/4/13 )

I found that it doesnt block dogs barking or even the TV in next room, it sits on my beside table and only if I sit the thing on the mattress next to my ear does it drown anything out, it needs to be louder, it has had no impact at all back to using my fan (Posted on 9/9/12 )

I've had mixed sleeping nights with the unit on, some were straight sleeps, some were interrupted.

Now I mainly use it for short naps or to drown out the background noise. It doesn't completely block the outside noise like I expected, instead it just provides a constant white noise to focus on which makes external noise tolerable.

From day 1 my machine has been rattling a bit, unsure why, it's liveable but obviously not ideal since I paid close to $100 for such an item. (Posted on 10/8/12 )

Very reliable and consistent little unit and so much better than a fan. But could be a little quieter even on the lowest setting. (Posted on 27/7/12 )

I highly recommend this product for anyone who wants some help falling asleep and masking unwanted noises. This is really the best thing I have bought for my health and sanity in a long time! It really does a great job and has far exceeded my expectations with its effectiveness. (Posted on 25/7/12 )

This unit is very clever. We usually have a fan on in summer but needed something for winter. This is a great solution, well done! (Posted on 16/7/12 )

The unit is excellent .The only improvement we would like is to be able to turn down quieter. (Posted on 12/7/12 )

Very happy with the unit. Have been using a fan to mask noise for years, but fans tend to develop rattles and are not so great in winter. The sleepmate delivers what is advertised. Very happy with purchase. (Posted on 19/6/12 )
