Customers are mixed about the sound quality of the noise machine. Some mention that the sounds are very good at helping baby fall asleep, calming, and has a variety of sounds. They also say that it's the perfect white noise to fall asleep to, and that their cats even love the bird sounds. However, others say that the volume does not get loud at all, the continuously sound option still turns off, and the 1 second sound gap between programs is the biggest problem with the device.

Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2024
About 2 months ago, I received a notice that the Hatch Baby Rest has been update and they sent us a new one because they want to ensure customers have the best (First note - that is just EXCELLENT customer service). I must say, it is amazing! Almost all previous notes had been addressed!
1. Range of volume is significantly more broad
This made a difference, especially with time. As my son got older, I am starting to lower the volume so he gets used to silence but also not rely on the Hatch Baby. JUST as I felt like the lowest volume on the previous model was fine, but slightly on the louder side, they sent this updated version which not only has a wider range, but I still have room to lower the volume even more in the future.
2. They changed the plug adapter. Previously it was like a phone charger. Now it is a real adapter which is sturdier, more secure and less likely to get yanked out by my child.
3. The app is a lot more user friendly and customizable. It is still simple but before the update, it may have been TOO simple. The only thing I’d wish they’d do is make shortcuts to my favorites. For example, when I set the schedule, you have to set the volume and light brightness, but I wish I could just set my favorite setting during that schedule.
4. THE FADE! I mentioned before how it transitioned very abruptly and I wished it would have been smooth - they fixed it!
5. Lastly, they did NOT address the light. Which I think may just be preference. Currently this device is meant to be a night light. It does just that. I wished there could be a ‘night light’ setting and ‘lamp’ setting that I could switch back and forth from and also had brightness levels. Sometimes I need to change his diaper in the middle of the night and would like to be able to see without turning on the light and this would be helpful. Other than that, works just as a night light which is nice to see the room as I shuffle around.
*previous review*
I never write reviews, however, I love this product so much, I really want to provide some feedback so if the company ever chooses to update, these are really easy features to add to make it even more spectacular. (note: my son is 3.5 months)
(1) multi function:
a. night light
PROs: has several color options. this may not be a big deal for others, but the fact that orange, red and yellow hues enhance and help sleep for both baby and me is a major plus. then green and blue are cool tones that help with waking up (for me now while the baby is young, and then for him when he's a little older). then with the cute sleeves to add later, i think the color options would help with his development visually and mentally
CONs: light is not bright enough depending on size of room. i switched rooms and in our master the light was so low at the highest setting i couldn't see to breastfeed in the middle of the night (let alone change a diaper!). i ended up having to add back my lamp that has a baby sensitive bulb just to see. would be nice of it had more of a range and could functions as a lamp in addition to night light mode. (i will say though, in the nursery, the light was JUST right at the highest setting)
b. sound machine
PROs: NOT ON A LOOP, which is a big deal. i've had to return a previous device because it was on a loop and i could hear the click with my sensitive ears. there are also several options in noises, and my son really enjoys the soothing music to wake up to. all the noises are naturally recorded rather than electronically made so it's realistic
CONs: there is a lot of opportunity here! when the device turns on or off and even when i change from one sound to another, it is VERY abrupt. i wished there was a fade in / out when turned on / off, or a smooth transition from one sound to another when switching. some times my son is asleep and i am stepping out of the room so i turn on the Rest, i have to move very fast to turn the sound all the way down and manually fade it in so not to shock him awake. i've also read other reviews that when the device is on all night, it has defects where the volume changes randomly - this happened to me too. i though i had a defected unit and called amazon for a replacement, the new one does it too! (here's the kicker, when mine adjusts the volume by itself, it does it as a fade! so it can be done!). lastly, i wished there was also 'heartbeat', 'vacuum' and 'stove fan'.
(2) control options:
a. top ring: such a clean look and powerful speaker with a single ring you and turn the device on / off by. it is VERY sensitive though, so be careful not to bump into it when the baby is sleeping or it will switch to your next 'favorite' setting
b. base controls: nicely hidden from your child if they're very curious and can be 'toddler locked' from your phone
c. bluetooth from your phone: this is what won me over. in the middle of the night when you are sleep deprived, and you just want to adjust the volume.....SOLD. HOWEVER, note that all reviews have a warning that this is BLUETOOTH and not WIFI so i've noticed i will need to be like 10ft from the Rest in order to control it. this is a bit frustrating since it is supposed to be 30ft and i can't even control the volume from the bedroom door.... also 'favorites' can only be activated by the top ring, you cannot select a 'favorite' from your phone to play.....not cool
overall, i love this device and look forward to using it for the years to come!
one feature i'm not sure if it's possible, but since it is already connect via bluetooth, if i could play my own music as well such as mini dance parties or youtube itsy bitsy spider or whatnot, that would put this over the top!!!
The ability to customize the sound and light settings through Wi-Fi connectivity adds an extra layer of convenience for busy parents. Plus, the inclusion of sleep training features and a time-to-rise alarm clock helps establish healthy sleep routines from an early age.
But perhaps the most delightful aspect of the Hatch Rest is its versatility. As the baby grows into a toddler, the device seamlessly transitions to offer music and stories for entertainment and comfort.
In short, this second-generation Hatch Rest has become an indispensable tool in my cousin's nursery. If you're looking for a thoughtful gift that promotes restful sleep and fosters a soothing atmosphere for both baby and parents, look no further than the Hatch Rest Baby Sound Machine. It's a gift that keeps on giving, night after blissful night!
