Love all hatch products (we have the hatch, restore mini and the restore) however there’s a few features I wish it had. First off, it loads/connects SO slowly. Als, it would be more convenient to set up a lineup of stories/sleep sounds. Most of them only last 6-7 minutes and then my kids are screaming for another one. Our hatch (we’ve had it for about 4 years) noise stopped working about two years ago but the lights and settings still work so we still use the “ok to wake” feature.
This is a great version of the regular rest machine for traveling or even using on the first floor of our home when LO naps there. I really like the quality of this as well. I'd highly recommend this product!
We have a Hatch in both children's rooms at home. The mini is at the Grandparent's house. It blends in the room better and is less technical. It is just as loud and has the same sound option which is important for my babies. Crisp white and easy to make portable!
My little one sleeps soundly with the hatch mini. The programmable settings are especially helpful to keep on routine when sitters are helping out. The portability with travel is also helpful!
We have used Hatch sound machines to establish sleeping routines since our first child was born 2.5 years ago. She has slept through the night since she was 2 months old. We got the Rest mini when we had to use the full size Rest for our next child. Mini is nice because it is simple in providing sound only. App is very convenient and prevents having to go in their room to make changes. I do wish it had the toddler lock feature like the full sized Rest has, however.
I originally bought this to travel with my son, but I love it so much that it now lives on my nightstand permanently. It's simple to use and has a wide range of volume control. I especially like that I do not have to connect to the app to turn on/off, and it doesn't require wifi to simply turn on and work.
