Sonic Bomb Dual Alarm Clock w/ Bed Shaker Review

Sonic Bomb Dual Alarm Clock w/ Bed Shaker
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Like so many people, my girlfriend had a hard time waking up in the morning. So much so that she was at risk of loosing her job. No amount of gentle coaxing or not so gentle coaxing would raise her from her slumper.
I bought this little gem with out her knowledge and set it up in the shadows. The next morning at 6:00 am, the bed shook violently like a motel's magic fingures and was accompanied by the loudest alarm I have ever heard. Thank the gods that I was already out of bed because the girl had jumped out of bed screaming and throwing things. Needless to say, she was none to pleased... but she was awake.
Despite sleeping on the couch for a week, it was worth the laughs and her getting up on time for work. Getting to work on time was another task all together.
I strongly recomend this item!

Seiko Bedside Alarm Clock Silver-Tone Metallic Case Review

I'm always looking for the Nirvana product...best briefcase, cellphone, carry-on bag, toiletries container...and that's just for travel. I'm obsessive about my golf clubs, cars, televisions, etc. So when I stayed in a luxury hotel in Palo Alto, CA, this somewhat normal looking clock was on the nightstand. I looked at it, no cord, but a very large and readable face. And what was this little dial on the lower right? I spun it and it was the most effective and easy to use alarm setting dial I had ever seen...on the front of the clock!!!! I noticed it had a simple alarm on/off on the right and a large snooze button on top. Also, on the lower left was what looked like some kind of sensor. So I set the alarm and a placed a backup wakeup call as I usually do to the front desk. When I turned the light off, I noticed that the clock face was glowing green from a small LED in the lower part of the dial! Turned the light back on and it went off. Turned the alarm off and the light off and the face glowed orange! So, turned the alarm back on, face glows green again!!!! So, if you're an idiot like me, then you get "reassurance" that the alarm is on if it's green. And if you want it even brighter, you press the snooze on top. The alarm is escalating, and incredibly effective. This thing should be in the MOMA for a design award. One of the best and most fairly priced items I've ever purchased on Amazon. I regularly give them for gifts to my team and friends. Only problem, it's a little large to travel with. BTW, I asked the front desk if I could keep the clock and they could charge it to my room and they said "sure, people ask to keep that clock all the time!" Might want to order some LiIon batteries, 3 AAs to go along with it. I think the silver one is cooler looking than the black one.

Seiko Bedside Alarm Clock Black Metallic Case Review

This clock's best features include accurate timekeeping, adjustable alarm volume, and quiet operation. Some say the clock is ugly but I would say it qualifies as handsome. At night you can see the time with a glowing face and radium dials. There is also a second hand sweep and the alarm appears accurate.
There are three gotchas though. First and most important, the lamp (light bulb) is exceptionally weak and makes it difficult to adjust the time without another source of light. Second, the glowing face and radium dials are somewhat weak in my opinion. My wife, who is the one using the clock, says she can see the time at night, meaning the glow is adequate for her. Third, this clock is pricey but with a weak dollar what can you expect.
I offered to return the clock because of the weak light bulb but she rather keep it. Message to Seiko: fix the bulb and you have a great alarm clock.
Single AA battery, attractive plastic face and case, one pullout knob on back to set time and alarm, on/off slide button on side of clock for alarm, adjustable alarm volume knob and speaker in front, wide base for exceptional stability.
Update about 10 months later: One day, the alarm went off about 35 minutes early. Turns out that if we set the alarm sweep (hand) by turning clockwise a small distance, we would be woken up early (very bad Seiko). The trick is to always turn the alarm sweep counter-clockwise; then you wake up on time.

Howard Miller 645-652 Abigail Alarm Clock Review

A perfect clock for a print lay-out or as a prop on a stage set. Pretty to look at but doesn't deliver on function at all. The clock adjustment knobs on the backside are tiny and difficult to turn (if they turn at all). The button on top of clock to set alarm on/off feature moves so slightly it was difficult to tell if alarm was set as "on" or "off". Alarm is quiet to start and becomes louder, that was a nice feature. But setting the alarm time was pointless as alarm never started on it's own. Not a reliable product at all.
