Roxicosly Loud Alarm Clock with Bed Shaker, Vibrating Alarm Clock for Heavy Sleepers/Hard of Hearing/Deaf/Teens, Dual Alarms with 7.5’’ Large LED Display, USB Charger, Dimmer, Snooze & Battery Backup

This clock is great. I take medications that will sometimes knock me out and my old alarm, my phone ringing etc would not wake me up. With the vibrating puck does wake me up enough to hear and recognize the alarm going off. I have it placed underneath my sheets in the middle of the bed under my pillows.PROS:++Large display that is dimmable++Can set to use 24hr time. Helps when not paying attention and setting alarm for 6am instead of 6pm (18:00)++The vibrating puck is great and strong enough to wake me up. Also has a long enough cord to place it where I want.++ Has dual alarms.. helpful to me and I set them 15 minutes apart to make sure I wake up since sometimes it’s hard for me to wake up.++Has USB power out so you can charge phone or ?? Straight from clock. Though it not a Fast charger.CONS:—Too many small buttons on top. Wishing some of them like button to set clock was on back or side.—Snooze bar too small. When fumbling around trying to hit snooze too easy to hit another button that turns off alarm. Would be better if certain rarely used buttons were moved to back or side, or they were placed closer to the top edges to make snooze bar larger.—The slip on feet… have no idea why they aren’t attached. They slip off too easily.—The battery backup for power failure ONLY keeps time in memory and clock/alarm does not work. So if power goes out when you’re supposed to get up you’re out of luck but when power does come back on… at least you don’t have to reset time.—Runs off a usb power brick so need about 3.5” clearance to plug adapter into wall. Have mine plugged into a power strip but may be problem if trying to plug into outlet behind bed or cabinet. Also uses usb A connector into power adapter instead of being hard wired into it. So it ‘may’ come unplugged.OVERALL:Very pleased with this clock due to the 24hr time format (it is switchable to am/pm) and the strong enough vibration of the puck. The wire for the puck is long enough for placement and I have it placed under my sheets. Do wish it had a rubberized or some other coating on the bottom so it wouldn’t slide around as easily. Like this clock so much that I bought one for my friend and he is also pleased with it. My biggest pet peaves with this clock is the multitude of closely placed buttons and the smallish snooze button and the fact that the battery backup is only to save the time and not operate the clock/alarm. Overall happy with this clock and can deal with the not so good things.

My 10-year old vibrating alarm clock stopped working. I shopped around and bought this one. I seldom write reviews. But I am so satisfied that I'd like to share my experience with everybody.I hope that the manufacturer reads reviews, as I'll mention one thing that I hope they can take into consideration when they design their next model in the future.Pros:1. This alarm clock uses two AAA batteries as back-up during power outage. AAA batteries are cheaper and less bulky tnan 9V battries that my old alarm clock used to use.2. The display is bigger and brighter than my old alarm clock's display.3. I really like the DST function. It works like this: You first set the clock time to your local Standard Time. Then in March when DST begins, you push the DST button. It adds one hour ("springs forward") to the clock time. In November when DST ends, you push the DST button again. It subtracts one hour ("falls back"). There is a small indicator on the screen to tell you if it is in DST mode.I wish that the DST function can be automated. But I imagine that it'll make the cost higher. At this price point, I am happy enough with this simple button.4. It has two alarm buttons ("Alarm 1" and "Alarm 2") so that you can set two different alarm times. I only need one to wake me up in the morning. But some people may find the second alarm time useful.5. The vibrator works as advertised. It shakes me out of my bed. I don't use the ringer. So, I can't comment on that.Cons:1. There are two buttons, "Alarm Pause" and "Alarm Off". When the alarm goes off in the morning, you press "Alarm Pause" to stop the alarm for the day. It will go off again tomorrow morning. If you press "Alarm Off", it turns off the alarm completely. That is, the alarm won't go off until you turn it back on by pressing some other button. So far, so good.Here is the problem: These two buttons are right next to each other. So, in the morning, the alarm goes off, you get out of the bed, still kinda sleepy, you want to press the "Alarm Pause" button to stop the alarm. But if your finger slips and presses the "Alarm Off" button by mistake, then you'll wake up the next morning 2 hours late, wondering why the alarm didn't go off.My suggestion to the manufacturer: When you design your next model, consider relocating the "Alarm Off" button to an entirely different place. I'd suggest move it to the right side, next to the "Ring/Vib" button.I still give this product 5 stars, because I consider this shortcoming quite minor. I'll simply make the habit of checking the "Alarm On" indicator on the display every night before I go to sleep.
