Amazon's 'small but mighty' €24 gadget is a godsend for insomnia sufferers
A white noise machine that has been reduced in prize on Amazon is proving popular with people who need help nodding off at night and for parents trying to get their kids to sleep.
The LazyNight White Noise machine, which was originally priced at just under €37, is now down to just under €24 (price accurate at the time of writing).
The white noise machine must be plugged in to use and provides 30 different soothing sounds, including white noise, pink noise and brown noise, reports The Liverpool Echo.
It also comes with 12 kinds of colours to choose from to create a 'comfortable and relaxing environment', as well as 10 levels of night light and 36 levels of adjustable volume control, allowing the user multiple options to find what suits them or their children best.

The gadget can be played continuously, or for one, two, or three hours off timer. It's described as being 'loud enough to help you block out outside noise' and 'perfect for improving sleep quality and fighting snoring'. On the Amazon website, shoppers have given the product a 4.5 out of 5 rating from over 300 reviews.
Elsewhere, for shoppers that want a gadget for baby use only, Currys is selling this MOMCOZY Smart Baby Sound Machine for €54.99, while Munchkin's Portable White Noise Sound Machine, available for €26.99 on comes with three soothing sounds and a 4-star rating.
Back in the Amazon reviews for the LazyNight White Noise machine, one customer said: "I use this to help sleep since I work night shift and I couldn't be happier with the investment. For the price, this is a solid little sound machine. It is small but mighty. I love the night light function and light color/brightness options. I also love that how when you turn it on and off, the color, sound and volume level stay the same.
"So if you're a creature of habit like I am and you like to have a certain sound and volume while sleeping, it's nice to be able to just turn it on and it be exactly where you want it to be from the last time you turned it on. My only critique is very petty but I wish the brightness level went down just one more level. Other than that, this has actually really improved my quality of sleep."
A second shopper said: "This thing has seriously helped me to sleep and boasts enough sounds to keep variety in the process. The night light is fully adjustable and can be changed to many colours and it is a easy device to use. Sound volume is fully adjustable and all the functions work as intended. Great value for money."
A third fan said: "My kids love it. It's the perfect size. Works well. Sound quality is amazing. Each night they can choose a different color or sound to listen too. Definitely worth the money."
However, one negative reviewer said they were 'disappointed' with a sound they described as 'tinny, high-pitched and rushed-sounding'.
"Most sounds are not really useful for resting or sleeping to. The so-called brown noise sounds are too thin and tinny, high-pitched and rushed sounding - when compared to YouTube brown noise sounds - which are warm, soothing and slow - and do not cover the external sounds."
If you like the sound of this product, the LazyNight White Noise machine is currently on sale on Amazon for €23.91 (price accurate at the time of writing).
