VTech BC8311 Tommy The Turtle Storytelling Baby Sleep Soother with a White Noise Sound Machine Featuring; 10 Stories, 10 Ambient Sounds & 10 Calming Melodies with Glow-on-Ceiling Night Light

Update 9/11/2021: Our original Wyatt is still going strong nearly 3 years later! We just ordered our second Wyatt unit for our new baby who is set to arrive any day now. Our original intention was to pass our first unit on to the new baby, but our son loves Wyatt so much, he couldn't part with him. So, a second one will be joining our home! Out of all the baby products I've purchased, these is by fair the best one, gets the most use, and was the best bang for our buck. Thanks for making our lives just a little bit easier, Wyatt the Whale! :)Update 3/6/2021: After over two years of using this product almost nightly, our friend Wyatt the Whale is still going strong! I still hold true to my original review that this is one of the BEST baby items we purchase. It was truly worth every penny. While my son doesn't use the white noise function as much anymore, he still uses the story function quite often, and uses the lights every night at bed time. I just love this so very much, and have recommended it to all my friends and family who've had a newborn! 5 Stars (Still)! :)Wyatt the Whale is absolutely wonderful! The variety of sounds, songs, and stories alone is a enough to make me love him. His ability to project different color stars on the ceiling, the app, and the volume control are icing on the cake. I appreciate his smaller size, and I didn't want something that took up took much space, but still wanted something that looked cute. I love that he plugs in instead of using batteries as well. My son never slept through the night in his crib, but the night we started using Wyatt, he slept 10 hours straight! This has been one of the best baby products we purchased for our family. Great item for adults as well; I love all the white noises sounds, especially the heartbeat and the hair dryer! 5 stars -- would purchase again and thinking about purchasing another for a gift to a friend!

We got this cute little sound machine for our daughter when she was about a month old. It works perfect for us! It has the perfect volume, where it’s not too loud but it’s loud enough. The night light isn’t super bright and I like the variety of sounds it has. The battery charges pretty fast and it doesn’t beep loudly when the battery dies. It just turns off. We mainly use it while it’s connected to the charger at home, but the battery lasts all day while my baby is with her caregiver and if we use it while we’re out and about. It’s lightweight and the monkey’s tail is good for hooking it onto my baby’s car seat/ stroller and there is also an attachable Velcro strap you can use as well. My only gripe with this device is that it randomly stopped working out of nowhere 8 months after we got it. I did like this one so much that we decided to order another one and honestlyyyy, I can’t wait for the replacement to get here. Lol

Great buy. Battery lasts all night - 8+hours.Has a variety of songs, noises. There’s not a ton of options but my son loves it. Soon as he hears Myla turn on he gets relaxed and calm and knows it’s time for bed/nap. The nightlight he enjoys too, just looking at it. Although I do wish there was an option to keep it on longer than 15 mins but by then he’s either asleep or no longer paying attention to it. It’s very portable, I often hang it on his car seat for rides or when we have to travel from place to place. Helps in stores, unfamiliar places. Overall great price, great product.

I got this for my 4 month old daughter and I love it! I was surprised by how small it is for the price, but the quality and features are excellent. By far the coolest part of this is the downloadable Wyatt the Whale app that allows you to select and program what you want from the preloaded songs, sounds, and stories and put them in any order you want. I like that you can choose as little or as much of the preloaded items as you want. We chose about 15 songs, 3 sounds, and about 10 stories. When you first use the app, you'll have to connect to wifi and use the given password The total time between all the songs, sounds, and stories cannot exceed 45 minutes or so.There are 4 different settings for the lights in varying colors that project steady on the ceiling and works great as a night light. The stars shut off automatically after about 30 minutes, but the music, sounds, or stories stay on as long as you want with no auto shut off. The music sounds offer melodies of at least 25 songs for you to choose from. There are also at least 20 different noise sounds such as a fan, ocean, rain, heartbeat, etc to choose from and program into it. Personally, I found a lot of the sounds annoying and chose to only program the fan, ocean, and rain into ours.My favorite aspect of this is the ability to record yourself reading stories of your choosing into the whale. One of our favorite stories is "Guess How Much I Love You" so I recorded myself reading that. You do only have a 7 minute window per recording, so you'd want to choose short stories. We use this every night and it's one of my favorite baby purchases, so much so that I bought one for a friend who is expecting.

I purchased a hatch sound machine for my babies nursery and it turns out this is the only soother he will fall asleep to. The sound is great with various nature sound and instrumental lullaby sound. The monkey has a nice added light feature. The portability makes it handy for traveling. Overall great product, I actually went and purchased a second one.

Wonderful product that my son has enjoyed for exactly 2 years. Great noises, nightlight, easy for my son to use (he even loves to play “night night” and turn it on for a few minutes in the daytime while he pretends to sleep). We bought a second one for my second child and I believe it has helped with his sleep immensely.Unfortunately after 2 years our first turtle is having issues. You have to push the white noise button 3 or 4 times to get it to turn on, and occasionally it turns off by itself in the middle of the night. Now turtle has had a few falls when my son tried to hold him and dropped, but always onto soft carpeted floor. In any case, I wish it had lasted longer but we’re buying a replacement because we still like the product.
