Munchkin Shhh Portable Soothing Sound and Light Machine Shockingly, babies don’t need silence to sleep. A mother’s womb is actually a loud place, and is comforting to babies. When dealing with a cranky or colicky baby, loud, constant noise can quickly help calm them down, especially when the noise is louder than their own crying. The shhh portable soothing sound and light machine was made to give parents a break and designed with science in mind. It features three specific sounds to first calm down an upset baby (shushing noise), lull them into a calm state (heartbeat noise), and eventually keep them asleep (white noise). This portable, battery powered gadget, is a life-saver when baby is away from home, but needs to get some rest. It also features a timer, and nightlight which can even pulse in sync with the noise. Hopefully this soother saves a few parents from running laundry, or riding in the car in the middle of the night just to keep their sanity.
Portable light and sound machine calms little ones with three different sounds – shushing, heartbeat and white noise
3-D icons make it easy to find and toggle sound, volume and light controls in a dark or dim setting
Soft night light can glow solid or pulse in sync with the selected sound
Auto shut-off timer for 10, 20 and 30 minute increments – 30 minute maximum conserves battery life
Battery operated, portable and perfect for on-the-go
Requires 2 AA batteries (not included). To change the battery, simply line up battery and lock icon.
Makes a great baby shower (or anytime) gift for new parents

Worth it’s weight in breast milk
I had seen similar products while pregnant but thought they were sort of a silly waste of money and didn’t get any. We do have a white noise machine with lots of different settings. After the baby was born and she decided that screaming was her favorite pastime, many people suggested the 5S soothing techniques from the happiest baby, one of which is shushing. Well after scream shushing in my daughter’s ear for hours on end, I got tired and remembered similar products to this one. So I came to amazon for my daily ‘save me I don’t know what I’m doing with this tiny human’ shopping binge. I found the other shusher for 30 something dollars and just couldn’t justify it, but after reading reviews for this one, it seemed that people liked it better and the price was more reasonable. I hit buy faster than my baby can spit up on the first clean shirt I’ve worn all week and never looked back. My baby likes the white noise machine too but this is an actual “Shhh” sound which is completely different and gets her to calm down, where the white noise helps to keep her asleep. I love that it’s portable since you will want it with you everywhere you go. I’ve even taken it in the car on longer trips. I like that it can be stood up or laid on its side or laid right in the bassinet or swing with the baby. I like that I can start out loud to overcome her screams and then gradually decrease the volume. I like the adjustable timer and that it’s easy to use. I have not used the night light portion except by accident or any of the sounds except the shushing. My only complaint is that the buttons can be difficult to find, especially in the dark, and especially especially when you’re sleep deprived and have the mental capacity of a baby yourself. But this is a minor complaint, I would still recommend this product to friends having babies. I also would sometimes like to leave it on longer than 30 minutes for those times when the baby is making you earn that title of mother. It always seems to find a way to turn off at the absolute worst times.

Very comparable to the other shusher. Works miracles
My original orange/white 4 year old shusher met its end when my 2 year old dropped it on the floor. The thing works miracles with my baby so I needed a new one. I was drawn to this one because of the $15 savings. I can confirm that the “shush” sound it nearly identical and has the same very calming miracle sleep effect on my 2 month old as the old one. I find the button controls easier. Both take 2 AA batteries. This one has some extra features but I really only wanted the shusher. Not a fan of the white silicone as it looks dirty right out of the box. I like the loop so I can still hook it to my carrier when I wear him. Ultimately, I’m glad I saved the money and went with this one. We’ll see how it holds up.

One of the best baby items
This little item has been indispensable since our baby was just a few weeks old. Baby had bad colic and saying “shh” over and over helped to calm her. Since I purchased this, it has been used multiple times a day for about 6 months. In that time I’ve never had to change the batteries. As soon as I turn it on, baby calms down and it helps her fall asleep faster. My only complaint would be that installing the batteries was kind of difficult, but given how long they last it’s not that big of a deal. There are three sound modes: “shhh,” a heartbeat, and a kind of wave sound. The light on this is a soft white, and it can stay on or blink slowly. There’s an adjustable timer to automatically turn off after 10, 20, or 30 mins. To change the timer, you turn the top half back and forth. I leave it on 30 min constantly. If you want to turn it off sooner, you just press the power button. I like the compact size and portability. When baby was smaller we used to bring it in the car as well. This definitely is as good as the other name brand, but much cheaper. Definitely one of my best baby purchases. I’ll be giving these out as shower gifts in the future.

Very happy & works so good to calm the baby
This product was on my daughter-in-laws baby registry.I love that it has a volume as another one I had before didn’t. It is just the right size, & looks kinda like the old air fresheners, only a softer, sweeter look.She was very happy & uses it everyday. If soothes the baby just as if one of use was “shhhhh” her.I do wish it came in other color choices.Other than that, we are very happy with the product.

Fue la mejor compra

It would be perfect if it had a longer timer
I really like this shusher, it’s simple and LOUD which is great. It’s simple to use, looks nice, has good quality sounds. BUT the longest timer is 30 min and my baby’s sleep cycle is 45 minutes long. The second this thing goes off her eyes POP open. I have to try to remember to reset the machine during her nap so she isn’t woken up from the noise stopping.I know it says the timer is there to conserve battery, but there really should be the option to keep it going or a 60 minute timer option. I don’t know why they would make it impossible to do this, I mean they are my batteries I should be able to use battery life at my discretion! I haven’t replaced it and will keep doing this little dance of resetting during the nap, because I like it and haven’t found any other travel shushers that are better anyways. But really disappointing there is not a longer time option.

Great buy
Small, easy to carry around. Love that the buttons are textured so I can feel them in the dark.the light is not enough to operate diaper changes in the dark but certainly a great nightlight just to pick your baby up or see baby up close. I only wish I could operate without it being on a timer but that probably makes sense with something that is battery operated.

Bought 2
We own two because it’s used so much. I have used other noise machines and they don’t have the “shhh” feature that this machine has. Batteries last long. Have had for months and haven’t changed the batteries. My son loves it and it helps in the middle of the night when we are tired and can’t shush him for more than a minute. Highly recommend.

Ça sauve la vie !Plutôt que de rester sans salive dans la bouche de faire Shhhh shhh shhh pour calmer votre bébé, et ben vous avez cette machine. Et c’est excellent le fait qu’elle s’arrête toute seule au bout de 30 min, comme ça bébé ne s’habitue pas trop non plus avec du bruit blanc tout le temps.Y’a aussi le bruit d’un sèche cheveux et le cœur de « la mama » que j’utilise mais plus rare.Anyway, c’est un truc indispensable pour une maman avec nouveau né.

Aparelho compacto e portátil, bom para levar para os lugares e usar fora de casa, em passeios, no carro etc. Em casa acho que não compensa usar porque o temporizador dura apenas 30 minutos no máximo, então para usar a noite inteira é melhor uma caixinha de som própria pra isso

Great value for money. Does its job well, which is to soothe my baby. However, the build quality is not the best, but its alright

The baby sleeps really well with this. However, the problem is the maximum time it can run is 30 minutes before turning off by itself. This wakes up the baby. It would have been really better with maybe a longer time limit, or slow shut down to not wake up the baby by the sudden silence!

Me ha resultado muy útil, buscaba el sonido de shshsh me gusta el diseño es bonito y práctico y los materiales de buena calidad, tiene 3 sonidos de shshsh, latido, y como dentro del útero. El único detalle que si lo aclaran en la descripción es que lo máximo que dura es 30 minutos. Utiliza baterías AA que me han durado muchísimo lo uso durante el día para siestas del bebé y para dormirlo en la noche llevamos 3 semanas y aun tiene batería.
