Restore 2 Sunrise Alarm Clock, Sound Machine, Smart Light (Putty) ー Bedside Dream Machine, White Noise, Custom Sleep Routines, Dimmable Clock, Deep Sleep, Gentle Alarm, Wake Up Rested

Beware! You have to use an adapter to plug in and power up in the UK. Really annoying! Given the cost of the item I’m amazed it didn’t come with the right plug or an adaptor. Sloppy.

Let’s be real: the Hatch Restore 2 is pricey. This sunrise alarm clock costs more than my first car (granted, that car didn’t start half the time, but still). That said, waking up to a gentle sunrise simulation instead of my soul-crushing phone alarm? Worth it. Pair that with the sound machine that makes it feel like I’m falling asleep in a tranquil forest instead of my apartment next to a screaming toddler? Chef’s kiss. Sure, it’s expensive. But if you’re tired of waking up like you’re being catapulted out of bed by an air raid siren, this little gadget might just be worth skipping a few takeout orders. Plus, every morning, it softly whispers: “You spent a small fortune on me—get up!” Motivational and overpriced. Classic.

Whilst some features are locked behind a subscription (disappointing when the initial outlay is pricey), there’s enough functionality to be good without the subscription. There’s a good range of different sunrises & sunsets to choose from, the light can be used on its own as a reading light or mood lighting. The sound quality is good enough for the standard alarms. Easy to use via the app. Waking up to a light room in the dark winter days really makes a difference to how I feel.

Im astounded that a device sold in the uk doesn’t come with a uk adapter!! How is it supposed to work. Surely a customer shouldn’t have to pay £185 for a clock then have to spend more money for an adapter.

Nice clock. Looks good. Has great features for waking up and preparing to sleep. Has good anytime ambience. No complaints on the clock itself. Not a fan of subscription for extra sounds effects etc. although can be used without. The subscription adds to it. For price of the clock I feel the whole app should be included. But it still is worth it to me.
