The main point is that some just sound much deeper than others. In some descriptions, the manufacturer now gives each of these a different color, such as chestnut, cinnamon, and tan. The manufacturer lists them as follows: White noise For many people, these types are easier on the ear. There are more of the deeper-sounding pink and brown noise choices than white noise. There are a total of 10 white noise variations and 10 fan sounds. In the video below, I simply play through the LectroFan’s sounds so you can listen to them: The white, pink and brown noise variations and fan sounds This is a feature that the classic LectroFan lacks, and that they’ve addressed with the newer LectroFan Evo model. But really, you’d be better off with a device that has a headphone jack. It might help a little, and only if your partner doesn’t mind having it on. If you sleep right next to a snorer, a white noise machine is never going to cut it out completely unless you sleep with it right next to your head in bed – not an option I recommend! If the snoring is coming from another bedroom, I’ve found the LectroFan is able to significantly reduce or mask it completely. That makes it less likely you’ll be disturbed while sleeping. It’s to be expected that some very loud noise will still be picked up by your ears, but even in those cases, the noise was much less jarring. Overall, I was impressed by just how much noise was hidden behind the LectroFan’s constant sound. Cars passing right outside the bedroom window.Here are the results: Couldn’t hear at all With the help of the normal world outside my house and my partner in the room next door, I checked how much I could hear different noises. Noise testsįor this review, I did some specific tests on a pink noise setting at a loud (but not maximum) volume. If you do need more volume, the LectroFan is one of the loudest white noise machines I’ve tested (more than 30 over the years). And it gives you very precise volume control so you can find the lowest possible volume that still works. I like that it has an upward-facing speaker which fills the room with sound. I’ve used it for that long simply because it does its job very well, with dynamically produced white noise that doesn’t loop, click or restart. I’ve used the LectroFan both at night in the bedroom and during the day on my desk for several years. In my experience, it does – and very effectively. So before looking at the technical specifications, let’s address the most important question: does the LectoFan Classic reliably block out disruptive sounds? The main reason to use a white noise machine is to reduce how much environmental noise you hear by replacing it with a constant noise of your choice.
