Hatch Plus

Hatch Rest is a great product for parents and caregivers of babies and children of any age. If you have a newborn or infant who’s struggling with sleep regressions and leaps, then the Hatch Rest can provide them with comforting sounds and lights that will lull them to sleep. Infants will learn to associate these noises and lights with rest time, which will help them fall asleep faster and stay asleep for longer. The only thing better about Rest Plus, when compared with Restore, is that you’ll get portability with the Rest Plus device. So, you can double the device as a portable lantern that can be used to illuminate the surroundings if you need to get something at night. If you want the ability to hear and talk to your child through the device, the Hatch Rest Plus is the better option.

Hatch Rest Plus is designed with the understanding that every baby has unique sleep patterns. This smart device takes into consideration the nuances of baby sleep and brings features to cater to that. Pros of Hatch Rest Plus These two products are comparable enough in size and shape that it shouldn’t affect your decision too much. The biggest deciding factor will be the premium plan, which is exclusive to the newer generation. It’s pretty – I love the simplicity of it so it can grow with your child – a glowing teddy bear may not be your 12-year olds idea of a good time one day. Sleep programs can be customized via the app. A Time-To-Rise feature is designed for toddlers, and the idea is that you can program the device to let your child know when they are allowed to wake up for the morning. Everyone sleeps better with Hatch. The Hatch Sleep app makes it easy to get the most out of the Hatch family of products: Restore, Rest Mini, Rest, and Rest+.While some customers enjoy that added versatility, others prefer the more streamlined, simplistic 1st generation. It offers all the same 10 light features as the original Baby Rest, with intuitive lighting options and adjustable brightness levels, so you can get the perfect brightness for that late-night feeding. Wake Up It isn’t too bright – even the brightest yellow is still more of a soft glow, instead of ‘surface of the sun’, so they are all nice for sleeping or a perfect reading light.

Which is best? Well, parents, that depends on if you want something more hi-tech that plays multiple roles in your nursery, can be linked with Alexa and be an audio monitor, then go with the Rest Plus. Summary You can adjust the color, brightness, sound, and volume of the Hatch Rest Plus. This feature gives parents control over creating the perfect sleep environment for their baby. The Hatch 2nd Gen boasts an enhanced speaker that delivers richer, higher-quality sound. Cons of Hatch 2nd Gen

Performance Comparison

The app lets you choose which lights and sounds to wake your child up or help them fall asleep at a certain time. The Hatch 2nd Gen comes with touch controls, making it more convenient to operate, especially in the dark. The device is barely more robust at 5 x 5 x 6.8 inches and weighs slightly more than a pound. The newer generation comes with the same reliable plastic as the previous as well as LED lighting.

If your toddler is anything like mine, it’s unlikely he or she will need anything to wake up – what the light does is tell your kids it is NOT time to rise, and they should stay quietly in their room until the light turns green (or whatever color you select that means ‘wake up’). Sounds Another complaint is that the app has premium features available for an additional fee, but this is frustrating for those of us that don’t want to use the premium features. Being up-sold on a subscription after buying an expensive product is never enjoyable. However, by buying Hatch Plus, you’re saving yourself from having to buy an audio monitor. That alone makes up for the price difference and saves you a little room in your nursery. You’ll get the better deal with Hatch Plus! However, if you already have an audio monitor and aren’t interested in the other additional features of Hatch Plus, then Hatch Rest will work just as well. Is Hatch Rest or Hatch Plus Better for Parents? If you do not already have a baby monitor, I think this is a good buy, because the Hatch Rest + really does so much – you’ll be using this device for years. And the real winner, friends, is not the baby sound machines: but happy, well-rested babies (and their parents!).
