" ... however, it is really hard to turn on and get to actually come on and half the time it makes a high pitch squealing noise. ... "
" ... You could barely hear it even at the max volume. ... Changed them out and nope still quiet. ... "
" ... Purchased one and it had issues shushing at higher volumes. ... These things get stuck on a very fast shush rotation to were it sounds like it’s glitching. ... "
" ... However, in variable, it breaks and starts making weird mechanics sushing noises. ... "
" ... Volume controlled sucked! ... It’s so low , baby definitely cries louder than noise level of shusher. ... "
" ... However, I haven't even had it quite a month yet and the sound started to crack and fade so I changed the batteries and now it doesn't work at all . ... "
" ... He doesn't respond at all to the noise it makes. ... If we had more control over the noise, like speed and repetition, would have been better. ... If they don't respond to a long single shhhhhhhhh sound, don't buy this device. ... "
" ... This product is close but cannot fully simulate a person making a shushing sound. ... "

" ... The product is great, but this is the second time I purchased this item and it broke within a month. ... "
" ... We used it religiously throughout the day and after 8 months it stopped working. ... The replacement same issue. ... "
" ... Great concept but only lasted 3 weeks before the sound started skipping. ... "
" ... So disappointed to have spent as much as we did to only have it work for a month. ... "
" ... So I ordered a second one thinking how great it was before it broke. ... maybe if it was made with a better quality it would last longer but this devise lasts about a month and then it's junk. ... "
" ... The first time it malfunctioned and eventually died after only 2-3 months of use. ... This second time it happened after only 1 month! ... "
" ... But lately they break within a month. ... Our first one lasted for 18 months. ... We’ve gone through three within the last 3 months. ... "
" ... It also has not worked. ... "

" ... I Didn’t like the noise. ... I thought it would be more of a white noise sound instead of a “shush” simulation. ... "
" ... After a week, the shushed was defective and made multiple shushing sounds, very disappointed ... "
" ... It does what it’s suppose to do, which is making shushing noise. ... Except, the shape of this thing and the location of the speaker are just poorly designed. ... "
" ... The sound clarity and volume is horrendous. ... "
" ... So disappointed and back to making shushing noises myself in the middle of the night. ... "
" ... My daughter really likes the shushing noise and I was tired of making the noise myself so we got this. ... They are so expensive for a little machine that makes one noise! ... "
" ... i’ll admit that my kid is soothed by the sound but it’s very inconvenient that it breaks at a moment’s notice. ... "
" ... Even as I’m writing this I’m listening to it malfunction (which is this super high pitch obnoxious sound). ... "

" ... Our son is 10 months old and when he is supper fussy we pull it out and it calms him and out to sleep he goes. ... "
" ... It was so great early on to soothe, and still works on rough sleeping nights. ... "
" ... Puts adults to sleep too lol ... "
" ... Works well and it really helped our baby sleep I just really wish it had a 60 minute option cause as soon as it shut off at 30 minutes our baby would wake up. ... "
" ... During the discharge class my baby went to the nursery with this and they said it put all the babies right to sleep. ... "
" ... This is a must for sleeping! ... "
" ... I love the Shusher because it really does relax my baby and put her to sleep . ... "

" ... Stopped working so changed batteries out, tried 2 different sets of brand new batteries and it still will not turn on. ... "
" ... The thing cuts off after about 45 minutes and went through about 1 set of batteries a month. ... "
" ... I replaced the batteries and it still wont turn on - too expensive for something that wont last. ... "
" ... Even with brand new batteries, it is a very faint/low hush sound, and is not at all effective in calming a loud crying baby/infant. ... "
" ... See scuff marks on outside of device & corrosion at battery contacts. ... "

" ... I have gone through at least five of these because it keeps rolling off my table and breaking. ... Just overpriced for something plastic and so fragile. ... "
" ... So I ordered a second one thinking how great it was before it broke. ... "
" ... But if you drop it only once it will break. ... "
" ... I took the entire thing apart, reattached the lead and finally got it to work. ... "
" ... The inner packaging was pulled apart . ... "
" ... it’s cheaply made and yet pretty pricey for what you get. ... "
" ... Mine broke the first time it fell out of the stroller- for $35 that is a little frustrating. ... "
" ... Worked great when it worked, due to its shape we would roll off a hard surfaces and finally broke. ... "

" ... I had to hold it at a certain angle to get it to turn on or hit/shake it, and the noise would still cut out most the time. ... "
" ... Looping is terrible, there is a very audible cut off when it loops. ... "
" ... Might have to run to target before they close and put it in a glass case so it won’t break. ... "
" ... So you have to have it in the laying down, rolling, position. ... "
" ... I found a bunch of heavy grease (inexplicably inside of the battery compartment) covering the electrical contacts on the screw on cap, preventing it from turning on. ... "
" ... I have gone through at least five of these because it keeps rolling off my table and breaking. ... "
" ... Down side is it CANNOT take a hard fall, my son (7months) threw it on the floor and broke it. ... I’ve dropped it a few times here and there over the 5 months but one hard fall made it stop working so just be careful with it. ... "
" ... For a product that is over $30, it shouldn't break from falling three feet to the floor. ... "

" ... I agree with other reviews there should be just an “on” button rather than a timer. ... "
" ... Only issue I have with it is that it's not that very loud even when turned up all the way with the volume controller. ... "
" ... The timer is for 15 or 30 minutes and the volume isn’t great either. ... "
" ... Volume controlled sucked! ... "
" ... We had issues with this from he start that include inability to control volume or settings. ... "
