Restore 3 is a sleep clock first and a white noise machine second, and that framing matters when you compare it with the $50 machines above. Hatch builds in sleep sounds, a bedside reading light, a dimmable clock and a sunrise alarm for gentler wake-ups. The goal is a phone-free nightstand: most controls sit on the device, though setup needs a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi connection. Hatch includes 30 days of Hatch+, its library of meditations, sound baths, stories and sleep music, and after that it costs $5.99 a month or $59.99 a year. For pure noise masking, a fan machine does the same core job for far less money. Restore 3 makes sense if you were going to buy a sunrise alarm and a reading lamp anyway, and want sound in the same device. Hatch offers a 30-night bedside trial with free shipping and returns, plus a 1-year warranty.
