Best Alarm Ever
on August 24, 2016
Posted by: lange292
I have owned this alarm for 5+ years now. It is by far the best alarm I have owned. I do not wake up startled but it is a natural and gradual wake up. My boyfriend of 2 years ( I introduced him to this alarm) said if we ever break up this would be the first thing he would buy. It makes for happier mornings! I know the price might scare people away but it is totally worth it!!!!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

It works!

I was using two alarm clocks previously - one that i would snooze then the second one to actually get up. For the first time I am waking up gradually and sometimes even before the alarm (birds chirping) comes on. It took a couple of days to get used to (subconsciously) feeling the light come on. I do wish I would have bought the model that has multiple choices for the natural sounds -the birds chirping is nice - but it would be nice if each model had the multiple natural sound choice. Another feature I would like to see is battery back-up as power does go out ocassionally. I will continue to use my cell phone as a back up alarm.
Pros: you will wake up more naturally, you will wake up more easily, you will not need the snooze function
Cons: only the birds chirping option on this model, no battery back-up

I very much love my Philips Wake-up Light. After searching online and reading about various features and reviews on different wake-up light alarm clocks, I settled on this product and am very happy I did. Since the day I got it I have been very pleased. It has very much helped me to wake up easier during those dark early mornings. You can adjust the light to be brighter or dimmer and you can use as a stand alone light if you need in the evenings. You can even add sounds with the alarm - my favorite are the birds chirping option! The design is nice and goes well with my decor. You won't be disappointed with this purchase. It's great!

I can't live without it.

This has greatly improved my wakeup experience. I feel more alert and ready to start my day, even on cold, dark, winter days. I'm going to be doing some traveling and don't want to leave it behind. I wish there were a travel size. The size and shape is kind of ugly and bulky on my nightstand, but it is so much better than waking up to a startling alarm. Sometimes I wake up a couple minutes before the alarm portion goes off and turn it off. I wish I had one of these growing up.
Pros: effective, easy to use
Cons: ugly and bulky

Morning Smiles

I love this product. I really, really do. I got it after moving into a new place that didn't offer much in the way of natural morning light, so this adds that much-needed brightness to the mornings that actually makes it possible to get out of bed! I've had this product for nearly a year (although I suspect maybe a bit of an older model as I have a third wake up sound - gentle "gong"-like musical tones) and have loved it ever since. The minimal operational buttons on the front make selecting your preferences and setting your alarm a longer process than just hitting a button but no problem at all once you get used to it.
Pros: great light, great sounds, perfect for ambient light
Cons: unattractive shape/model
I would recommend this to a friend!

Helps me wake up!

I like this clock. The light gently wakes me up in the morning. I don't feel jolted awake, just wake naturally. Another thing I like is that the clock is not that bright so it is easy to look at in the dark. Most digital clocks nowadays are too bright! I don't use the sounds too much, leave them on lowest volume because they wake me too early. As soon as those birds start chirping, I'm awake.
Pros: gently awaken., radio clock included., led not too bright., uses replaceable lightbulb.
Cons: doesn't turn itself off., would like other sounds., chirping bird sound irritating.

Dark winter mornings are easier

My husband has to get up and leave for work at 5:30 am. It's really difficult when it's cold and dark; and we both end up being jolted awake, then feeling groggy most of the day.
This light has made an amazing difference. We were both very skeptical, but found within a few days that we were peacefully waking up about 10 minutes before the birds started chirpping. I admit that we still use our alarm / radio for back up --- and to listen to the weather since, although this deals with the dark -- it's still cold !
I'd definitely recommend this to anyone who's light sensitive.
