Advantages: stylish and affordable, just the right decibel for getting you out of the right side of your bed Disadvantages: none
Bought for Ł 6. 99 from Asda, this beautiful Oval shaped alarm clock comes complete with little legs; for stability I think and a Large "Snooze" button on the Top. The clock is great for older kids bedrooms; as its chunky; available in either PEACOCK BLUE, HOT PINK or COOL SILVER. There are no numbers; just the time marks indicating the time; which is why I say its great for older kids or teens, so not to confuse the little ones!!
The Alarm sound itself is not high pitched, but a nice consistent, regular beeping sound, so it doesn 't trill or make you dart out of bed, but is just the right decibel for getting you out of the right side of your bed on time in the morning!

The Astronomical Clock is located in the middle of the Old Town Centre and is actually mounted on the southern wall of the Old Town Hall. The Clock is one of the most popular attractions in Prague and hundreds of tourists gather at the base of the clock just before the hour to see the clock chime.

I visited this attraction at around midday and we got to the clock at around a quarter to the hour. At this time there were not too many people around, although ...
Advantages: Features sunrise and sunset settings. Disadvantages: High price, have to dim light until its off.
The benefits of this alarm clock I personally believe will vary from person to person. It basically is an alarm clock doubled up with a bedside lamp.
The main feature of this device is it will switch its lamp on 30 mins before the alarm goes off and slowly glow to full brightness. The idea being that it simulates a sun-rise which in theory is supposed to encourage your brain to release chemicals associated with waking up.
The benefits of this function will be most useful to people suffering S.A.D symtoms and individuals working shifts. I personally bought this product because I do shifts and i must admit it has helped, in particular with dark winter mornings, it helps bring you to a more alert state as it casts a nice bright light into your room.
A second feature is the same as above but in reverse, the device will create ...
