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 have a severe hearing loss and have a hard time with finding alarms that I can hear. I can hear the alarm but am impressed with the vibrating shaker. It works great. The clock was easy to set up. Delivery was on time and the package arrived intact.

The overall look of this alarm clock is really good. It has it all and everything works well. Every feature is easy to use and set. This is important as I had past alarm clocks which were complicated to use so you never get to use its features. The variable brightness of the display is actually useful as past clocks were either too bright or not bright enough at night. The sounds of this clock are excellent, also for heavy sleepers, I am not one of them but for people that have a hard time to get up, this will really work as the shaker really shakes you up. The USB charger charges well for Cells ant Tablets. It also has a power failure feature in case power goes out. The alarm clock is not too big as to take a lot of space and yet it is solid and the numbers are big for visibility. So overall an excellent alarm clock for the price with plenty of user friendly features......Frank

I can’t say enough good things about this. I am a HEAVY sleeper. This alarm clock has helped me wake up when I need to. The noise & vibration combo works well. I like how it’s bright enough I can see the time when I wake up. Easy to setup & helped a lot!

This alarm clock works so well for heavy sleepers like me. The alarm clock is smaller than I expected and the packaging was very secure. Figuring out how to set the clock was so easy because it came with easy to read instructions with pictures included. The sound and volume of the alarm is so loud that it wakes me up right away. My phone alarm can't wake me up if you want and idea of how loud it is. This alarm clock comes the with 2 alarm's that you can add just in case you want a backup alarm. I do recommend this product for anyone who has a problem waking up on time.
