Customer Reviews of BioBrite Sunrise Clock Advanced Model with White Noise, Pearl
Customer Review: love it!
Summary: 5 Stars
This product is a little bigger than I expected when I ordered it, but I am extremely pleased with the results. I live in the northeast where it is very dark when I wake up at 5:30 in the morning. Before buying this alarm clock, my old alarm clock would rudely awake me from a deep sleep and I, feeling totally exhausted, would hit snooze two or three times before I felt like I could possibly get up. This dawn simulator, however, gently brings you from a deep sleep into a gradually lighter and lighter sleep before it beeps. In fact, I find that I usually wake up on my own now before it even beeps at 5:30.
This alarm clock has many great features including a snooze option, a security program, dawn and dusk simulators... even the beep (if you choose to use it) gradually grows louder over 60 seconds.
This alarm clock only has four buttons and many features, so programming it at first was a little difficult. After a little time, however, programming is quick and easy. I have let my friends borrow it and they all, even the very deep sleepers, LOVE it!
Customer Review: A True Life-Changing Purchase
Summary: 5 Stars
This simple little clock has been completely life-changing for me - and my fiancee! First of all, I have suspected Seasonal Affective Disorder, to the point where insufficient natural light has been known to result in a nasty form of apathy. Since I started using this clock, I've noticed a meaningful improvement in my daily mood and ability to work.
However, even for people without these problems, I can highly recommend this alarm clock. It's one of the gentlest ways to wake up I've ever found, even if you sleep until the alarm starts beeping, as it starts quiet (but insistent) and slowly increases the volume. I've slept through other alarm clocks, but not this one - yet, until you've experienced this clock, you don't realize how much waking up startled impacts the flow of your day. With the BioBrite Sunrise Clock, I wake up more slowly, and end up far more awake and ready to go!
Yes, it's expensive... but you have to wake up every morning of every day. It's worth improving the experience.

Summary: 5 Stars
Before buying this clock, I read all 40 reviews that existed on Amazon because I wanted to see if other people thought it was worth the money. $100+ is an extraordinary amount of cash for a clock, but I needed something to get me out of bed while it was still dark outside in order to get to the gym and to work earlier. I received the clock one week ago and read the instruction manual before attempting to use it. The manual explains the operation procedures clearly and concisely. The is not too difficult to use, and it does the job. I use the 30 min fade up feature and have consistently woken up 15 - 20 mins before the alarm is set to go off b/c of the light, even for a 5:30a wake time. I can't say this product will work for everyone. And yes, it is, as some people have said, a glorified light bulb in a glass cover, but this past week is the first time in well over a year when I have not shut off the alarm and reset it for a later wake up time so that I could catch some more zzzzzzzz.Customer Review: easiest way to wake up
Summary: 5 Stars
I got the alarm clock for my husband who as a difficult time waking up and used the old fashion beep beep alarm which he snoozed a dozen times before getting up. We've had the biobrite sunrise clock for about a month now and love it.
I consistently wake up refreshed before the alarm actually goes off as my body is slowly waking up with the light coming on. The shorter light cycle would work for me, but my husband needs a bit more time, so we put it on his side of the bed and it works great for both of us.
When the alarm comes on, it does so progressively, which I like. The design doesn't look bad in our bedroom and there is really no better way to wake up on days you need an alarm clock. I've used the white noise function a few times and while I rather like silence it's not bad at all and has helped our daughter go to sleep when used with the sunset function.
Works well as a reading light too.
It is well worth the hefty price tag.
Customer Review: Wow,...Ok-I am Hooked!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was a bit skeptical and not thrilled about the price. I wake up at 4am for work and have never liked waking to a "radio" station or jarring beeping of an alarm clock. I am also a "nocternal" person by nature-so I'm definitely not a happy morning riser. Well I have to tell you this clock has changed my attitude and makes getting up when its dark outside a pleasant experience! I can not imagine going back to the traditional alarm clock waking system. I agree with other reviewers on miscellaneous things about the product design, etc.
I can give up the minor issues to wake up the way I have been waking up!
Also you can probably get a better deal at Sleepwellbaby.com (they usually have free shipping and handling)
Bottom Line:
Fork out the bucks if you want your waking experience to be something that you dont dread :)
