Great -- Until It Suddenly Stopped Working

We purchased this travel sound machine for several reasons/uses:1. My husband and I didn't live around any family, so we knew we'd be traveling with our little to visit with anyone, especially over the holidays.2. We live on a busy street and having the Dohm near his bedside and an extra white noise machine on particularly loud days, would help to keep our little asleep during naps.3. Our son had colic and we ended up having to spend 95% of our day just sitting on the couch with him in our arms, to keep him content and sleeping. I was an avid hiker so I longed to get out and walking, at least around the neighborhood. We found that our little didn't do well with all the noisy traffic when we went for walks, so having this in the stroller with him helped to keep him content for at least 10 minutes while I was outside.Therefore, altogether, we probably used this travel machine about 50 times (and I think I'm being generous). It was amazing for those times we used it and truly helpful. But all of a sudden (just after the year warranty was up) and right when we needed it to work due to a big out-of-state move, it started having issues charging it. About 3 days after the charging issues started, it stopped completely.I took to the internet for recourses, called the company, emailed, checked with reviews and questions here on Ebay, but nothing. No one ever answered or contacted me back. It is frustrating to have a product for a year and have it completely die. I have coffee machines I have used daily, that were passed down from my parents, who used them for a decade prior than me. There is no need for a machine to breakdown after such a short time.At this point, I'm thinking of going with a Hatch Rest to have a sound machine that I can take many places, as well as all the other features (like sleep training assistance for toddlers, nightlight, etc.). And from the looks at the reviews and my research, that thing lasts forever.So disappointing.

Pros
  • Two for one
Cons
  • The device emits a humming noise that is distracting and unpleasant
