I understand that the brightest level is designed to be seen through the actual lamp but the low setting is still enough to make sleeping difficult if you prefer a dark room

Digital clock display is too bright even on the dimmest setting: I do have mine on the dimmest setting, and while it's a bit darker than most other alarm clocks, I agree that it would be nice if there were an even dimmer setting available

In addition, since my room is already lit up by the very bright "10" setting, it already feels like the day has begun.

First, I really like the idea, and it is a great set up

Unfortunately, what I received is a clock that even on it's dimmest setting has BRIGHT RED NUMBERS THAT COULD

However... in the morning, when the 30 minute sunrise has just ended, and you're trying to turn off the alarm but the lamp is on its brightest setting, you're kind of staring into the sun to try and find the alarm off button

I don't mind that the dimmest clock display setting could be

The clock display does go down in brightness and its lowest setting isn't bright enough to wake me up, but I still wish I could turn it off completely

Digital clock display is too bright even on the dimmest setting: I do have mine on the dimmest setting, and while it's a bit darker than most other alarm clocks, I agree that it would be nice if there were an even dimmer setting available

Even at the brightest setting, the light is simply too small to be effective

The manual is a disaster, and like most manuals, has the worst set up directions ever written
