I was amazed by the amount of functions the alarm clock offers. At first I thought it was simply a sunrise alarm clock, but after using it, I learned that there were a plethora of addition functions, including a radio, reading lamps and different wake up sounds to pick from. I use this everyday for the feature that caught my eye, and led to buy this product. I am more than satisfied with just the wake up light that mimics sunrise, gradually getting brighter, allowing me to wake up energized for school, without the feeling of being forced to wake up. After having completely abandoned the alarm clock on my phone, I was able to wake up less groggy and start my morning already feeling better than I used to. Most of the settings are customizable, and adjustable to your liking, including the volume, light intensity, sunrise duration, as well as different light options to choose from as a bedside lamp. Currently, I enjoy waking up the sounds of birds chirping and using the red light lamp option before bed to read without affecting my sleep rhythm. Most importantly, their customer service is the best I have ever seen. They offer a life time warranty, and even though I broke the cover myself, they have offered to send a replacement for free, which is why I highly recommend to give it a try and see for yourself!

Purchased this after returning another one by the same brand. This one has the same bright light and wide range of adjustability but what I like about this one is the sunrise light will stay on for 90 minutes after the alarm time if you don't turn it off. I don't have to worry about my kid falling back asleep. Still has the same easy scheduling options (M-F, M-Su, or just Sa and Su) so you don't have to think about when to set it. This one has more color options as well and a lot more sound options which is nice, though I don't use many of them. Read more

Dec 29, 2024: I just received my sunrise alarm, and my first impression is there is a ton of stuff packed into this product for the price. The surprise for me is the BT connection with my iPhone to set the clock. I absolutely love that feature. I look forward to the clock always having accurate time. Second, two alarm settings for weekday and weekends is nice. The instructions are simply and easy to follow. At first it seems like there are many buttons but the many buttons make it easier to operate. Just keep the little cheat sheet included in the box and you should be okay. One issue is the battery that comes pre-installed. I don't see how or if it can be replaced. I am going to post a question about that. The battery does not run the clock, it just prevents losing your settings if there is a power outage. That is, if your power goes out, so does the clock and alarm until power is restored. I am using my iPhone sleep app to wake me up so a power outage won't be a problem. I bought this clock to see if having light at o'dark 30 will help me wake up better. Another nice feature is I can have one alarm sound play on my M-F, a soothing calm sound, and something different on my Sat-Sun alarms. On the weekends I can lay in bed and listen to the radio, which is one of the alarms options, just like a traditional clock radio. One more observation to add. The instructions are pretty good. There are a few odd choices of words but otherwise clear and effective. Dec 31, 2024: The light was too bright too soon and woke me up about 15 minutes early. To be fair, I was ill and not sleeping well but nonetheless I adjusted the time for the sunrise to 10 minutes and cut the light intensity down. The next morning (still under the weather but took medicine to help me sleep better), I finally woke-up five after five minutes of light and seagulls / waves sound. The light intensity was much better. It was very nice to have a well-lit, not overly lit, room. I didn't have to fumble with the lamp to find my clothes and get dressed. Day 2, after making an adjustment, was much better. Bottomline: Tune the settings to what you like. Don't expect it to be perfect the first time out. Tonight, at bed time, I get to play with turning off the alarm for tomorrow given it is New Year's day. I hope I don't forget, and I hope it will be an easy task. Jan 2, 2024: It was super easy to turn off the alarm to sleep in on New Year's Day, but you have to remember to turn it back at night which I did, and I had another nice wake-up this morning to light and seagulls. I am rather liking the soft light and seagulls to wake up to. It does not jar me awake. Rather, it takes a few minutes which is nice. This morning, I was turned away from the alarm, facing my wall, so the sound was the key aspect of the alarm to wake me up. It was again nice to have the room illuminated when I awoke. I am finding it important to keep the cheat sheet handy to remind me how to operate the buttons. I've used it multiple times and it saves me from having to thumb through the manual to figure out how to operate the clock. Read more
