i’ve had this for just about a year and a half and it still works as good as the day we bought it, we use it every night and for all naps (minus in the car as it has to be plugged in). it’s been pushed over and thrown a few times and is still in good shape. my toddler sleeps peacefully through loud outside noises to which i give a lot of kudos to the white noise setting. good size - easy to pack on trips.
