How natural are the sounds? Specifically interested in Ocean and Thunderstorm

The sounds are pretty natural, of the two, the ocean is more realistic then the thunderstorm. The thunderstorm sounds a little muted for what the natural version would be.

The ocean is really good. I like it best. Thunderstorm is unnerving to me and kids but I'd say it's realistic

Beverly is correct. Ocean is cool, stream is a bit harsh, rain is relaxing, white noise is as well, summer night is great, and wind scared me. Personally I would highly recommend getting a better quality speaker system. The internal speaker makes everything sound pretty tinny.

I don't hear the umbrella turning at all. If I did not see this question, I would never think about it, which indicates it's not a problem :) The music sounds wonderful. Several different songs of each composer is played in a calm manner. The rainforest sound creates a wonderful nature atmosphere. This is the best mobile I have seen.

You can play the nature sounds independently of the alarm. When the alarm sounds, the nature sounds go silent.

To work out sure yes have a blast. Sweat, rain wont damage the headset. Dont drop it in the ocean lol.

Rain, ocean, white noise, wind, crickets, and a river or waterfall, I can't remember. The description for this is slightly different from the one I purchased: this lists an alarm, which mine doesn't have.

We run ours on ocean and the only reduction of volume is the ebb and flow of the waves. We don't use the other settings so I don't know about them.

Natural piano sound is excellent especially with a little reverb. Also the church organ and harpsichord sounds are brilliant. I'm very impressed.

it is ok -- when you buy an outdoor water restiant speaker that I use in the shower you do not need the best quality with all the ambient sounds from the shower or outside with the wind blowing or dog barking. I am happy with the unit.

Of course there is a whirring sound, but not loud. I'm a light sleeper and I do well with it when I need it,(mostly when the power is out in the summer). I think it would be perfect for vacation.

They are not specifically "marine" speakers but they are made of materials that will not be affected by moisture. Salt water is another story though.

The umbrella turning makes a very slight sound, almost inaudible. It certainly does not interfere with the music. My grandson is fascinated by it. CA

It has several sounds.... Thunder, ocean, brook, summer night, rain, and white noise. Not specifically "rain forest" but something comparable I think.

Just got back from the beach. I bought this specifically for that reason. I had absolutely no problems with it. Sound quality is not Bose level but still good enough for me. It is definitely loud enough for beach. Wife had me turn it down. Bluetooth range is fair. But I would say for the price it is a no Braine to buy this speaker. Yes I would buy it again

Hi - no, there is no bird sounds in the "Ocean" feature. Actually, no bird sounds in any of the noise features.

Depends on the wind. Beaches can be very loud places on a windy day. That said, the unit itself is pretty powerful, so I'm inclined to say yes.

There are 2 options with bird sounds. The "Aviary" sounds more like squealing sounds to me. In my opinion it is a poor imitation of birds. The "Oceanside" has waves with seagulls. This one sounds really good. I use this one every morning to wake up. I hope this helps!
