BEST FOR SMART TECH

Yes, this has a big price tag, but we think it’s an option well worth saving for. The clock has been scientifically researched to rouse you from sleep, with its sunrise lamp that best mimics natural daybreak. Set your morning alarm and the light will then turn from dawn red to bright yellow over 30 minutes with natural sounds or the radio to accompany your gentle, get-out-of-bed experience.
