A Need in the Winter Months
Since I live in the north, winter mornings are miserable. It's so hard to wake up to my alarm clock, that I had to put 4 alarm clocks on my phone and two on my regular alarm.<br /><br />I decided to get this alarm clock because of the great reviews and decent price. The instruction manual is a little confusing but if you read it a couple times through, it makes perfect sense.<br /><br />The alarm clock itself is great. I'm normally a hard and deep sleeper so I was worried that I would sleep through it. However, for some reason I cannot sleep through it. When it first starts up, I don't feel like I'm in such a deep sleep then (but I still feel like I'm getting good sleep). When the nature sounds comes along with the bright light, I'm wide awake. Sometimes I'm surprised how I rested I feel and I don't feel so mad at the world.<br /><br />The only problem I've had so far is just the bright display but that be turned off. Not a huge deal for me at all.<br /><br />Overall, this product is great. It wakes me about 10 minutes before I need to get up so it gives me extra time. It's quiet for others and it won't wake the next door neighbor. You feel it's close to noon when it goes off, so it feels like you have slept in. I recommend this to those have a hard time waking up with an alarm clock..which is about everyone. =)
