Good Night Buddy by Sleep Whisperer Ingrid Prueher- All-in-One Sleep Training Solution w/Sound Noise Machine, Kids Alarm Clock, Room Temperature Gauge, Night Light- Teach Baby & Toddler Sleep Habits

Update: it’s been a couple of months now. The sounds are not disruptive for us (we prefer the “shhh”/white noise one) and my kid understands the color system and knows he should stay in bed. It can’t make him listen, but he likes the item and understood the purpose right away. They’ve lowered the price from $45 to $30 as of this update. The product seems much more appropriately priced now.Original review: The product arrived quickly and the packaging was sufficient. There aren’t many reviews of this product so far so I was hesitant to purchase. We bought it for my 2 year old to help him with the transition from crib to bed. We have not yet used it overnight so I’ll be reviewing the item itself and not it’s effectiveness (yet). The clock was very easy to set up without instructions, though instructions are provided. I did not set nap timers but there are only three buttons for settings (bottom) and they are very straightforward. You can use standard or military hours. This does not have an alarm feature. The thermostat is super sensitive so simply handling the product can greatly affect the thermostat reading. It took about 20 minutes of sitting on the shelf for it to align with our in home thermostat. The AC adapter cord is maybe 5 feet long. There is a single button battery, I think to just maintain the settings, not allow actual light or sound use. The nightlight can be turned off, but the brightness cannot be adjusted. It is very bright. The light is more red than orange. Fortunately, the light does not actually project past the machine itself so it doesn’t cast a glow that brightens the room. I still wouldn’t put this at eye level with your kid. I imagine it might be disruptive if they are trying to sleep. The facial expressions are fine. My kid seems neither bothered by or interested in them. The hair dryer sound is just that, but completely monotone (as opposed to the distortion you’d hear with a hairdryer moving while in use). The “shhh” sound is standard white noise. The heartbeat is not what I expected. It said womb. Which is fine. Our other sound machine says womb/heartbeat and it is a nice, slow steady sound. This sounds like an ultrasound. Which I guess would be accurate. But it wouldn’t necessarily be relaxing to me, and my husband is immediately annoyed by the sound. My kid is unbothered, but again, we haven’t tried this overnight yet. NOTE** The volume is NOT adjustable. It seems an appropriate volume, but it wouldn’t be enough for some families. The machine seems made well material-wise. There was some staining on the left side (sound side) where the red buttons somehow dyed the white housing. The machine was slightly smaller than I expected. I thought it would be nearly twice this size for some reason. I’m pretty sure that’s my own error and not a description error. The size is not really something I worried about regardless though. I’ll update this review when we’ve used it for a few nights. So far I’m happy with the product considering the limited use we’ve had in the last few hours. I do think the price point is a bit high at $45. I think $35 would be more appropriate for this item, but if it helps my kid stay in bed, I’m sure the price will be fine.

This product is just what I needed - a clock that doesn't sound an alarm but just allows my child to see whether it's ok to leave his room in the morning and a white noise machine. No frills, nothing fancy. It's durable and easy to set, but very simple in what it can do. There's no adjustment for brightness or the volume for the white noise which is odd. I do like that you can turn the backlight/nighlight on or off, but it will never allow for a totally dark room because the temperature gauge light is always weirdly on. Like - I get it, it's a little warm for sleeping, but it's summertime with high temps over 110 degrees outside where we live, so we're used to the heat. We don't need a constant red light on to tell us our house is at the wrong temperature. I did learn because of this clock that our house is probably a little too hot for sleeping confortably for our kids though, so we've been turning down our thermostat at night and the kids are sleeping a little better. The white noise sounds are not great. We've been using the shh sound which is like a static sound and it seems good although I wish it was a little louder. The blow dryer sorta sounds like a blow dryer and the womb one is just weird. I wish there was a fan sound instead. I am glad there's a little button battery that just keeps the memory of the clock in case of power outages or kids unplugging it. The battery for that is included. I also like that it plugs into the wall and doesn't rely on a rechargeable battery. However, the reason I'm giving it 3 stars is because the power cord shorted out after a week! Through Amazon I can get a returnless credit back, so it's fine, but the rest of the item is so heavy duty you'd think the cord would be higher quality. I just hope it's not a repeating problem because I do like this clock a lot.

Exactly what we needed! Our littlest has a tendency of waking throughout the night and playing in her room or just waking up at like 4 am! This put a stop to that immediately. It also made going down for a nap and bedtime easier as it’s the clock telling her not us. Love it!

kept unplugging and had to set it up again and again

Bought this for my grandson for Christmas. He caught on quickly with the changing color and my daughter reports that everyone is finally getting some sleep!

I've had the pleasure of attending several of Ingrid's sleep workshops, and jumped at the chance to buy her product. Have a 5 year old and 3 year old who both struggle sometimes to sleep through the night in their beds. This clock was a great visual guide to help them with that, as well as the white noise option.

Every night the red light would turn to green. I had the sleep mode from 7:30pm-7:30am but it kept turning green at midnight. I ordered a replacement and it came completely broken, screen shattered and all. I stopped trying to replace it and returned both. I don’t recommend.

Love this clock! It is simple and my 4 yo triplets have really taken to it. It was incredible, actually - they immediately started staying in their rooms until the clock turns green... I couldn’t believe it!
