Wake-up Light

Love my wake-up lamp! I found it fantastic in helping me wake, and regulate my body clock, especially when working early (5am start) or late shifts. It really does make waking up on bleak winter mornings less painful - I think the warm glow from the lamp mimics morning sunlight remarkably well. I usually use the birdsong audio setting - despite reading complaints on other reviews, I really like this and find it life-like, especially since recently moving to a city and very much missing the sound of the dawn chorus. The dusk setting is also great in helping to wind-down. My only criticism - there was a fault with the halogen bulb & it blew after only a few months use (I think it's supposed to last a couple of years?) However I got in touch with Philips who kindly sent out a replacement bulb quickly & free of charge - excellent customer service, really pleased! :) ... especially since it means my lamp is now back in action - I really struggled without it. Details for buying replacement bulbs from spare parts dealer (GY6.35/100W/12V) - not available direct through Philips: Dutchwest: 01434 323 232 Last thought: Other reviewers complain about difficulties setting alarm & operations. I disagree - I found operations quite intuitive, and alarm-setting easy enough once you've worked it out (and it does come with simple instructions!). Also you have a choice of 2 alarm-settings, so I use one for weekdays and one for weekend lie-ins... simples!

Highly recommended, my mornings are not the same as my long drery ones I spent stuck to the pillw. I feel totally re-energized even with less sleep and I feel less tired during the day. So happy I now have this in my life!! :)

I purchased this product hoping it could help me to wake up in the dark winter mornings! and it really does... I feel much better and awake than using the usual alarm clock on the mobile; it is for the light function. Some time I even wake up naturally some minutes before the actual ring goes on.

After looking at the many wake up lights available for a couple of months I took the plunge and bought this one. I can safely say it was a sound investment. The gradual increase in light and sound help to wake you from slumber gently instead of with a startle like most alarms. Highly recommended for anyone who struggles to wake/getup when the mornings become a little darker.

This product does everything Phillips promised! It provides a warm and soft light at the start of the day .The choice of alarm calls is a good feature and the gradual light and glow on a morning is lovely to wake up to.I have recommended this to others as being a great alternative to a traditional alarm clock

Lovely light / alarm clock / radio! With the light slowly coming on and then the radio / sound effects gently starting, it is such a great way to be woken up. We love this product.

Had never heard of it, bought it, tried it and now can't live without. Especially on winter, it really helps waking up - nicer, more natural. A million times better than waking up with an alarm clock! Love it! Design could be nicer, considering it stands in your room. Perhaps add a little remote control too?

The Wake-up light is a necessity for those who struggle with mornings, especially in the dark and cold winters. The USB function is great to program your own music because you'll get bored of the 5 standard tones quite quickly. Also, Philips offers a bunch of alarm tone downloads for this device which is a real nice touch. I just wish the tones were a little longer in play time. The only minor complaint I might have is that user interface is a little cumbersome to navigate (+/- buttons would be better side-by-side) and you have to remember to set the alarm lever correctly.

Het is een lamp die tegelijkertijd een snooze functie en wekker functie heeft. Een heerlijke lamp om te hebben. Het licht is niet echt scherp maar meer omfloerst.
