If you WANT to benefit from the fancy lights and sounds, maybe try the ones that cost more money.

The light is not powerful enough to wake you from across the room like I hoped

The light is nice, but it takes more than that to wake me up.

It's not like turning on a light, it's a progressive yellowish color light like sunlight

I can't easily turn it off on the weekends or leve the white noise playing and still use the alarm light feature in the mornin.

I like how the light comes on and gradually brightens until the alarm goes off

The light is dull and a wire was sticking out.

Cons-the buttons are flush against the front of the light and when the light is on (which it is every morning), it's really not possible to see the buttons because the light is so bright

The light gets pretty bright, so it did take a couple of days getting used to it

The light didn't work and the time display would only turn on for 15 seconds at a time

But other than that, its still very calming to wake up to, especially that gradual light, and you get the hang of how to work it eventually

The light is great

I like the light, but it doesn't wake me up

love this light

I figured I could use it for soft light if I need it

so no glaring light from the time!

but I wish the light went a little brighter for the darker mornings coming in the winter.

The light is dim-able which it is white light

I set it up for 5:15am which is way too early and dark, shockingly the gentle light somehow naturally woke me up

The light always seems bright until the timer is done then is dark

Wish the light were brighter

I love the colorful lights

Surprise, the light isn't very bright!

Otherwise, the light is lovely and the sound choices are nice.

The regular light and the color lights don't work.

Nice alarm clock, lights aren't as bright as i thought.

Beautiful colors spread out joyful light

The gradual light didn’t always work with me to feel more awake when it goes off, but not to say it won’t work on lighter sleepers!

It did what it was supposed to do, and the idea is great, but I found that the light wasn't bright enough

The light is bright and the different colors are so cute

It just looked like I had a light on my bed stand, so didn't do too much in the way of helping me wake up refreshed.

The only negative, you can roll over and ignore the light

Light in the morning is great but to easy to mess up settings and have to re-set every night

I now wish I had purchased a more expensive clock that has an initial turn on sequence with a softer light

The light is confusing... this was a bad choice.

The light turns on 30 minutes before the alarm itself goes off, and the light becomes successively brighter

Now the lights and the alarm sound do not work
