Loud Alarm Clock with Bed Shaker for Heavy Sleeper, Dual Vibrating Alarm Clock with USB Charger for Hard of Hearing/Deaf, 7.5’’ Large LED Display with Dimmer, Snooze, 12/24H & Battery Backup

This alarm clock does exactly what it promises. It’s very loud, and the bed shaker is incredibly effective. The display is clear and easy to read, and setup was simple. It’s perfect if you struggle to wake up or need something dependable for early mornings. Definitely one of the best alarm clocks I’ve owned.

My 10-year old vibrating alarm clock stopped working. I shopped around and bought this one. I seldom write reviews. But I am so satisfied that I'd like to share my experience with everybody. I hope that the manufacturer reads reviews, as I'll mention one thing that I hope they can take into consideration when they design their next model in the future. Pros: 1. This alarm clock uses two AAA batteries as back-up during power outage. AAA batteries are cheaper and less bulky tnan 9V battries that my old alarm clock used to use. 2. The display is bigger and brighter than my old alarm clock's display. 3. I really like the DST function. It works like this: You first set the clock time to your local Standard Time. Then in March when DST begins, you push the DST button. It adds one hour ("springs forward") to the clock time. In November when DST ends, you push the DST button again. It subtracts one hour ("falls back"). There is a small indicator on the screen to tell you if it is in DST mode. I wish that the DST function can be automated. But I imagine that it'll make the cost higher. At this price point, I am happy enough with this simple button. 4. It has two alarm buttons ("Alarm 1" and "Alarm 2") so that you can set two different alarm times. I only need one to wake me up in the morning. But some people may find the second alarm time useful. 5. The vibrator works as advertised. It shakes me out of my bed. I don't use the ringer. So, I can't comment on that. Cons: 1. There are two buttons, "Alarm Pause" and "Alarm Off". When the alarm goes off in the morning, you press "Alarm Pause" to stop the alarm for the day. It will go off again tomorrow morning. If you press "Alarm Off", it turns off the alarm completely. That is, the alarm won't go off until you turn it back on by pressing some other button. So far, so good. Here is the problem: These two buttons are right next to each other. So, in the morning, the alarm goes off, you get out of the bed, still kinda sleepy, you want to press the "Alarm Pause" button to stop the alarm. But if your finger slips and presses the "Alarm Off" button by mistake, then you'll wake up the next morning 2 hours late, wondering why the alarm didn't go off. My suggestion to the manufacturer: When you design your next model, consider relocating the "Alarm Off" button to an entirely different place. I'd suggest move it to the right side, next to the "Ring/Vib" button. I still give this product 5 stars, because I consider this shortcoming quite minor. I'll simply make the habit of checking the "Alarm On" indicator on the display every night before I go to sleep.

I’ve had this clock for a bit over 2 years now. My review sounds extremely critical of it, but it's worked quite well for me and I actually really do like it. I used to sleep straight through the barrage of alarms coming from my phone, Alexa, and old alarm clock about 2 or 3 times a week. And the rest of the time I would always oversleep. With this alarm I haven’t slept through it once, and I only really oversleep whenever I accidentally turn off both alarms when the first one goes off. Pros: ⁃ The bed shaker works fairly well (but it could stand to be a little bit stronger). We have a Sleep Number i8 and I have the shaker positioned in the top corner of the bed (about 18 inches away from the top and left side) between the mattress and base. I can feel it pretty well on my side, but if I’m in the middle of the bed it’s not super noticeable, and you can’t feel it at all on my wife’s side of the bed (although that’s probably a good thing if you don’t roll away from your side while sleeping). The shaker is very loud when it goes off which is nice. You hear it through bone conduction since your head is pressed up against the matter and the sound is traveling straight into your skull through the mattress itself, so it just hits different than hearing other external sounds normally. Hearing the sound of the shaker that way is honestly way more effective for me than the sound of the actual alarm. ⁃ The dimer levels go low enough so the light doesn’t bother my wife at all and it isn’t distracting to me either. It would be nice if you could set it to switch between them at a specific time though. The lowest setting is perfect during the night, but you can’t see it at all during the day unless you are less than like 3 feet away and you’re not looking at it from any sort of angle. ⁃ The alarm is definitely louder than a standard alarm clock, but I expect it to be a bit louder. Cons: ⁃ The small feet on the back don’t do much at all to stop it from falling over ⁃ It’s fairly easy to accidentally turn off the second alarm whenever you’re stopping the first one ⁃ The alarm doesn’t have an auto off. I accidentally set my alarms before traveling one time, and when I got back 3 days later it was still going off ⁃ The cords are a bit short. It doesn’t reach far enough to go from the power strip on the right side of my nightstand, behind the nightstand, and sit on the far end of it. I would prefer to have it far enough away that I can’t reach it without actually getting out of the bed to turn it off.

ADHD Sleeper Approved! Thank heaven! This worked on Day 1. My 12-year-old has ADHD. Before this, Alexa could scream at full volume for 10 minutes and he still wouldn’t budge. This alarm woke him up immediately. No yelling, no repeating myself, no chaotic morning. Just up and moving. One less executive-function task I have to carry. A few notes: I actually think the sound is irritating, which is perfect because it cuts through sleep fog. They must have updated the design. Older reviews complained that the snooze and off buttons were too close together. On mine, the snooze button is about the size of a quarter and easy to distinguish, you really can’t mix them up. If you have a kid who sleeps like a brick and mornings are a battle, this thing is a game changer. Edit: Had to take down to 3 stars. It works great but the "off" button literally turns the alarm off. It does not auto activate the next day. I have two ADHD kids. I literally don't have the capacity to double check that the alarms are set. I know for some that may seem like a simple task but when you're managing an entire household and provide an external scaffolding and all of the other things that go along with ADHD kids, you need solutions that work all the time. Not just when you remember

The sound is not that loud but the shaker OMG crazy how good it is. It wake me up every time

This clock works very well. I bought it for my son who would wake up to his regular alarm clock at all and would sleep through the sound of the alarm ringing (I tried a couple of different ones with varying sounds, none worked). He would end up getting up late for everything. He can't do that with this clock. The bed shaker has him up and going the moment it goes off and he hasn't woken up late since we started using it. If you are or know someone who is a very heavy sleeper, this is the clock to get.

Everything worked as intended like the speaker, and the time settings. I was even able to slow charge my phone overnight with it. The only problem I had with it was that the vibrating puck kept slipping out from underneath my pillow and falling to the side of my bed. I wish there was a built in way of anchoring the puck to the bed or a pillow. I worked around this by slipping it into my pillowcase with a fashioned device to keep it in place.

The LED size rating is weird. I thought I was buying a large-LED clock. It's not. I'm not sure where they got 7.5" LEDs from...they are only 1.75". I thought for a minute maybe it was measured horizontally, but no...the whole housing is only 7" long. Oh well...looking at it now I think they intended to type 1.75" LED, but it got mis-typed. Just a heads up. I'm going to keep this item (unless I find something wrong with it), but I should be able to use it as I intended, despite the smaller-than-expected LEDs. I've changed my rating from a 3 to a 5. I had at three due to the poor description, but in reality, the clock itself is fine. I was hoping for bigger numbers, but the almost 2" high numbers will suffice. I like the LED display...very non-offensive.

The size of the numbers on this little alarm clock is so big that my elderly mom can see it across the room. The instructions were super easy to follow for the set up and it's been working perfectly with the alarm going off every day right on time. There are actually 2 alarms available to set but we are just using one. The price was very reasonable. I highly recommend it for anyone including seniors.
