Which Zwitscherbox suits you best?
Choosing the right Zwitscherbox depends on your personal preferences and where you want to place it. There are basically three variants from the manufacturer Relaxound, each with its own unique benefits. Understanding the differences makes it much easier to make the right choice.
The 3 types of Relaxound sound boxes explained
The main differences between the models are the charging method and how long the natural sound plays after being triggered by the motion sensor.
1. The classic Zwitscherbox (Battery-powered & 120 sec.)
The original, classic Zwitscherbox runs on batteries and plays soothing bird sounds for a full 120 seconds. This model is ready to use right out of the box and is by far the most popular option for the restroom or bathroom. Do you want this model with the longest playback time? You can buy the classic Zwitscherbox online in our webshop.

Which Relaxound box should you choose?
The best choice depends entirely on what you find most important at home or in the office:
- Classic Zwitscherbox: The best choice if you want the longest playback time (120 seconds), don't want to mess with charging cables, and want to choose from the widest range of colors and front panels (such as wood or design finishes).
- Zwitscherbox Satellite: The best choice for a sleek, modern design and the convenience of an internal rechargeable battery.
- Birdybox: Ideal for a shorter burst of sound (20 seconds) and a more compact size.
Where is the best place to use these bird sound boxes?
- In the bathroom or restroom: Here, people almost always choose the classic variant. The wooden front panels (like walnut or oak) instantly add a warm, soothing ambiance to the space.
- In the office or hallway: The rechargeable variants are very popular in these areas because they can be used intensively without needing battery replacements.
- As a gift: Giving it away? Then the classic version is the safest and most popular option.
Conclusion: What most people choose
Still in doubt? Most people ultimately choose the classic version because of its versatility and the wide variety of designs available.
