    If you find yourself suggesting a smartphone or a cheap alarm clock as a substitute to one of these options then you don't have the type of issues waking up that these solutions are designed to combat.

      The marketing team of Philips really deserves a reward. I mean look at this: they made these kind of people believe you need to spend a loads of money on an alarm clock if you have ''the type of issues waking up that these solutions are designed to combat''. Unbelievable.

    if you're normally snoozing 7 times before getting up, you are setting the first alarm too early. Better to sleep through the 7 snoozes instead. Every time you snooze, you're resetting your sleep cycle, not allowing you to get into deep sleep. It's counter productive. Set the alarm time to when you have to get up, not 7 snoozes early.

    Good video. For a good comparison you could also do the Phillips clock that you reviewed ($200) vs the lesser expensive version of the same thing. I think we got ours for $50 and it works pretty good. It isn't as effective after a few weeks but it's still superior to a regular alarm clock, especially in the winter when it's dark so much.

    I use an alarm clock on my phone. I decided to do a comparison. One was a little calm and one was loud and annoying. The loud and annoyingly one wakes me up but I turn it off and go back to sleep. As for the calm one, I sleep through it until my brother (who sleeps in the same room as me) wakes me off and tells me to turn it off which I do and then go back to sleep. Then my mother comes in screaming and that wakes me up. Moral of the story: parents are best at waking you up.

    Sonic alerts are loud as hell but unreliable poorly built junk. I have gone through 8 In four years. 2 lasted 1 day thank god for Amazon easy return. When they do wake you up they leave you feeling groggy which leads to a crappy day. If you are a heavy sleeper like me you will sleep through it eventually no matter how loud it is. I fear a fire in my house while I sleep cause the alarm wouldn’t faze me now that sonic alert has desensitized me. Get a programmable light timer for 10 bucks and a led work light. A cats meow will wake you up when 1000 lumens are shining.

    $200 for something that basically can be accomplished with a $10 timer outlet to plug your bedroom lamps into. Then just put a super bright bulb in it and remove the switch from the lamp. If you need noise use a 3way plug splitter and you can plug a radio and coffee maker into the timer too so all 3 turn on at the same time. Far too much cheaper to even consider some overpriced gimmicky alarm light that's almost guaranteed to be Chinese garbage that's designed to break. Here I thought the Phillips engineers were geniuses, but turns out their not brilliant. Their baiting. It doesn't even offer the surprise wake up hummer it is obviously designed to mislead the tricked customer into thinking they are paying for at that high dollar price.
