Soft-Tones Top Pillow Stereo Speakers with Volume Control

I bought a sleep machine with nature sounds and this pillow speaker as a gift for my mom for Mother's Day. She is in her 70's and has been having a terrible time with insomnia over the past few years. This little pillow speaker is great! You can't hear it at all if you're head isn't laying on it, like if you're sitting up in bed, which is great for my dad while he is sleeping next to her. But when you lay your head on it, the sound is clear, rich and enveloping since it has 2 speakers - one for each ear. The volume control slider switch is a GREAT feature so you don't have to try fumbling with the sound machine in the dark. The switch is right there on the cable, close to the speaker too so it's easy to reach. The presentation was also nice. It came in a nice heavy drawstring black bag inside the box, which I assume is for traveling or just to keep it clean if you store it away for a while. The entire unit is flexible, so it bends easily with your head whether you're laying directly on it or laying on your side. This is definitely a winner and my mom loves it. I couldn't be more pleased. Now I told my husband that I want one for my birthday so I can listen to my old radio shows in bed. :)

This is so nice to have in place of head phones or those dreaded ear buds. My many medical issues include scar tissue from two previously perforated ear drums and I cannot tolerate most head phones. After buying a few cheaper pairs trying to find something I liked better I decided to splurge on these and am glad I did so. They are for laying down. They don't conform to your head so they will not be easy to use while doing activities. This is for rest and relaxation. And if I would have had them while doing my hypnosis training for natural childbirth I would have loved the convenience!

It’s ok, but it’s not quiet all. My husband can hear it even when I turn it down as quiet as possible. I tried turning it down until he could no longer hear it, but then neither could I. It’s also big and bulky. So as nice as it is, good quality, I don’t see the point to it unless all you want to accomplish is to get your cell phone farther away from you at night. Cord isn’t super long though. Stereo sound effect is great if you are on your back, but it loses that the moment you roll to your side.It also cost too much money. The $30 Sangean Pillow speaker that I purchased previously goes under your pillow, your spouse can’t hear it and it lasted about 6 months before the cord failed - was a much better option if you want it to be quiet.

I've tried several speakers to sleep with. Past offenders have either been essentially earbuds, which produce no sound if you aren't on target, or have such weak volume that I couldn't hear through my pillow. These speakers are actual speakers and their volume control is actually meaningful. More than strong enough to listen from under my pillow, but I found the padding (necessary for real speakers) a hair too bulky. My favorite was just having them propped nearby and listening at the perfect loudness to hear without it going far.

I initially loved the pillow speaker until it broke after three months of use. The company replaced it for free, but the next one failed in six weeks. It just isn’t worth the $60 for the lack of durability.

This is a wonderful speaker pillow. I purchased the speaker pillow for my 92 year old mom who is hard of hearing and who was going into a nursing home and wanted to be able to watch TV and be able to hear the sound without bothering her roommate. The speaker pillow is perfect. She loves it and uses it all the time and has no problem hearing her TV. However, about two months after we purchase it, the connection to the left speaker broke and my mom could only hear out of the right speaker. I wrote to the company and told them what had happened. They sent me a replacement speaker pillow. This is a wonderful company and really cares about their customers. I would highly recommend this pillow as it not only plays loud enough for people who are hard of hearing, but it is also comfortable.

This was exactly what I was looking for, it's well worth the price, I was worried about buying this because of the cord, but it is removable, so if it does get wreaked you can replace it with a male to male AUX cord, the sound is great and it's made out of memory foam.
