This thing is pretty nifty and fun to watch, and I have a pretty place for it in my apartment, but don't purchase this expecting it to ever "sooth" you. It moves too quickly left to right, and the motor noise (as others have mentioned) is a bit too loud for my liking.
The wave sound effects, which you can turn off, are absolutely horrible and cheap sounding. I really enjoy this for what it is, but don't expect the world from this product.

This is a poor attempt at soothing anyone with a wave hypnotic motion. My son (age 9), who really wanted it for Christmas said, " I thought it would be real water". The sound is ridiculous and without it the motor for the machine deletes any soothing from the motion of the water/oil prepartion that makes the wave. Nice idea, poor product.

The tranquil tide is exactly that. I'm very pleased with the motion and the "hypnotic effect" of the curling waves. Visually, it's exactly what I wanted. Regarding the sound, the quality is lacking. I found that the mechanical surf isn't soothing mostly because it has no pause like a natural wave or variation in sound, and so becomes grating very quickly. I have another sound source, but for those who don't it may be a serious limitation to consider.
 Not what I was looking for November 30, 2007

I bought this item for my baby's room. The way the photo looked, I, for some reason, thought that it was illuminated. But it's not at all. Duh. In fact, it works poorly in low-light. Also, I bought it for the sound effect, and was rather disappointed with that as well. The sound quality is really poor and is more alarming than it is soothing. We instead replaced it with a Homedics Spa alarm clock and was much happier with that.
I think someone asked how big it is. I'd estimate approx 13" wide and maybe 6" tall. Just an estimate.
