LumieBodyclock Rise 100 - LED Wake-Up Light Alarm Clock with Realistic Sunrise and Sunset, Dimmable, Multicolour

Trying to become a morning person and also move away from the jarring phone alarms, so I scooped up this little guy; the hatch just seemed way too expensive! While I still feel like the cost is a bit high, I do love this clock!It was super simple to set up, provides great lighting if you want to use it as your nightside table light! The alarm has a few volume settings, so you pick how loud the beep is which is nice for both light and heavy sleepers! You also control how bright the 'sunrise' gets when your alarm goes off; the clock will start raising the sun around 45 min before your alarm time to provide your body a more natural wake up.The only thing I think the hatch has that this doesn't is the different sounds: like nature sounds, water, etc... this one just beeps but that's fine with me because the nature one would freak out my dogs.I love it, my dogs even respond to it. They know when the light gets brighter it means breakfast time! It's definitely been helping ween me off my phone.

Love this clock! After lots of research, I decided on the Lumie as a more budget-friendly option than the big brand. We're very happy to discover we didn't need any of the bells and whistles (do you really need another app subscription just to wake up feeling normal?). The first few weeks during the spring (darker mornings) was an adjustment because the red light coming on would wake us up 30 mins before the full-brightness "alarm." We've since gotten used to it. I can't remember the last time I woke up feeling constantly refreshed and not groggy or disoriented. All that to say, this isn't meant to be the only thing to wake you up. Besides Lumie, we also use our wearable fitness trackers' vibration alarms and thankfully haven't had to listen to a audio alarm for a long time.The biggest con is that you can't just set it once & forget it - you have to remember to manually turn it on and confirm the alarm time every day or it will not go off the next morning. A little note to Lumie's parents that if customers wanted to use this product for better sleeping habits, it might be nice for the alarm staying on to be the default.

Does exactly want I want and need. Helps me wake up and go to sleep. I don’t use the audio alarm feature because my phone works much better for audio. The sunlight wake up is gradual, and I have found that setting my audio alarm to go off about 10 minutes before the brightest light of the clock gives me the best results.A few more things:• It does have a 12 hour clock feature, though it is hard to find and access.• The design is good and it looks nice in my night stand.It seems a little overpriced, but was comparable to other nicely designed light clocks. I would love it it was a little more customizable (like the amount of time on the sunset feature) and the snooze time.Overall, it is easy to use and does what I need.

I finally put up black out drapes in my bedroom and now I sleep too long so I bought this to provide light in the morning. I can’t figure out how to set it up. I even used a magnifying lens in my attempt to match the symbols on the device with those in the manual. They don’t match. I’ve tried every combination in my quest to have light come on in the morning at the same time every morning. That’s all I want. No alarm. No night light. No other features. I trashed it and got a programmable timer to use with a regular lamp. Works like a charm and a lot less expensive.

I really missed my old Biobrite digital sunrise clock. I had it for many many years until it stopped working. This is the absolute best way for me to wake up in the morning. It is a slow sunrise in your bedroom, waking you up gently- not like other loud alarm clocks that feel like a bucket full of water was thrown at my face.In searching for a replacement, the Lumie Shine 100 is a very close second. I like it more than the Lumie Shine 300. I purchased both. The Lumie Shine 100 is MUCH easier to set up than the Lumie Shine 300. The main difference between the two is that the Lumie 100 only enables you to set one alarm time. The Lumie 300 enables you to pre-set an alarm time for each individual day- so if you have different wake up times each day, the 300 is best. But for most people who have a consistent schedule, the Lumie 100 is the way to go. I cannot emphasize enough how hard the Lumie 300 is to set up. Many reviewers said the same. But Lumie 100 is fairy simple to set up.
