Trying to get a good nights sleep is a struggle for many. Built up living areas, 24 hour cities and stressful working environments all contribute to disrupted sleep. If you're not thinking about the next day at work, you're being woken up by a dog barking or someone on the night shift clumping around upstairs.

There are solutions though. <a href="https://www.soundofsleep.co.uk/white-pink-brown…s-best-for-sleep/">White/ pink/ brown noise machines</a> such as the <a href="https://www.soundofsleep.co.uk/product/lectrofan/">LectroFan</a> have great results at masking unwanted noises. There are also the <a href="https://www.soundofsleep.co.uk/product/soundsleep/">Sound+Sleep</a> range, which uses natural sounds such as the ocean to mask noises. Both help to raise the ambient noise level of the room and increase what the brain perceives as quiet. They both effectively address the problem, but with different sounds.
<h2>Natural sounds VS white noise for sleep</h2>
Both natural sounds and white noise devices help promote better sleep. However, they each have different strengths, and so suit different needs. If you are struggling to sleep soundly because of a variety of noises throughout the night, then the <a href="https://www.soundofsleep.co.uk/product/lectrofan/">LectroFan</a> is ideal. The LectroFan is the ultimate sound blocking device. However, these noises in themselves are not particularly pleasant to listen to. They also do not help to distract you and help you detach from a busy lifestyle. If you are struggling to unwind after a busy day/ want to drift off in a calm and quiet room, then the <a href="https://www.soundofsleep.co.uk/product/soundsleep/">Sound+Sleep</a> is the perfect choice.

The <a href="https://www.soundofsleep.co.uk/product/soundsleep/">Sound+Sleep</a> has additional features to the LectroFan as well. It has a range of white noise and fan sounds in addition to the natural sounds, giving you greater choice. It also has an adaptive feature which allows it to increase its own volume to mask any increase in the disruptive noises, such as a door slamming. The <a href="https://www.soundofsleep.co.uk/product/soundsleep/">Sound+Sleep</a> also has non-looping technology in it. All the sounds are completely random, and continuous. Even complex sounds like fire crackling is 100% random. This helps to create an authentic and immersive sound, which is relaxing as well as blocking out disturbing noises.
