The benefits of this alarmclock I personally believe will vary from person to person. It basically is an alarmclock 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 ...
Advantages: Strong flavour and a lovely buttermilk colour. Disadvantages: None although of course cheese is full of cholesterol.
I rather like a nice chunk of strong cheddar and often go for Canadian as these rich cheeses are lovely with chutney and crackers. However recently I noticed a new cheese in Waitrose which is also available through the online delivery company Ocado called Cornish Quartz. There is something about the name which really appealed to me, so I purchased a small piece first to see if I liked it.
Waitrose have done the correct thing here, I feel, which is to sell the cheese in three sizes. At the moment Ocado have a half price offer selling the smallest piece for £1.34 for 100g, and the largest is £1.97 for 350g so it is an excellent time to see if you like it.

You can see by the photo that the clock has a traditional clock face. It has one of those small hands to set the alarm. I could never understand how to set the time with one hand but basically you put the hand between the two numbers ie. half past 6 would be between the 6 and the 7 hand. I have never thought that it would be stricltly accurate but it seems to be.
You can see that there is a glass dome (it is actually plastic) which the light shines through. There are slits in the back which helps even more to simulate the sunlight.
There is also a radio function.
