As a girl who has lived in and around the same city for five years, I’ve grown used to sleeping with distractions. Even though I live on the outskirts of the center now, my street gets real noisy, which makes going to sleep a total nightmare sometimes. I hate wearing headphones to sleep in, and my boyf hates listening to podcasts. What’s a girl to do? Well, this girl has found the perfect solution: a great white noise machine.
NGL — white noise machines just never occurred to me as an option. I just didn’t see the point of listening to fuzzy sounds or jungle noises. I’d seen them all over my TikTok feed, with people totally swearing by them, but I didn’t understand how they could be so life-changing.
Then, I tried one for myself.

With over 44,000 five-star reviews on Amazon and coming in at under $25, the Homedics machine was the perfect choice for dipping my toes in the white noise waters. I didn’t want anything overly complicated — I just wanted a range of sounds, adjustable volume, and an easy on-and-off switch. And boy, I was impressed. Even when it was super noisy outside, I was able to fall into a deep sleep quickly, finding myself to be instantly soothed by the white noise sounds.
Here’s what happened after a full month of testing…
