Manufacturer Contact Information 1-866-832-4361 Review: Works for this sleepy head! - I was skeptical at first but this alarm really works! I can sleep through most alarms and phone calls but this thing is really working. It's easy to set time and alarm in a few short moments. The lamp feature is handy as well for an adjustable glow to a nice bright reading light. The sound of the alarm is pretty basic but the real magic is in the light that brightens over about 15 minutes of the set time for the alarm to go off. Set near your head, facing where you will be facing the alarm clock when waking; thats all it takes. This alarm seems to bring you to wakefulness naturally without jolting you awake or being too quiet. To snooze the alarm is a light tap on the top of the alarm itself. Snooze gives you a pre-set 9 minutes but you probably won't use it cause it seems to be able to give you a decent wake up and more ready to get up than other alarms I have used. The shape of this clock is about 10 inches in diameter. It's lighter weight than I expected but it's not an issue because it works quite nicely. The time display is also easy to adjust the brightness. The shape of this alarm makes it almost require a flat smooth surface, so it doesn't roll or get wobbly. It similar to a photo frame with an easel type leg at the rear of the alarm. Overall it's been a pleasant surprise as to how well it has been working after 2 weeks of use. Now no matter the weather, this alarm is waking me up to what seems like a sunrise! My only issue is that it's so lightweight. That might be a huge bonus if you want to use it as a travel alarm though! Review: Great for a quiet household - This is the best light-up alarm clock that I've used. PROS 1. I can't sleep with light in the room, and even I can handle the time on this clock. I had assumed I’d be putting a post-it over it at bedtime, but it’s actually dim enough. When my GF visits, I turn the clock so that the side of the clock faces the bed. The time is so dim that it doesn’t create a glow anywhere visible. 2. When you snooze, the light stays on. 3. The beeps are not harsh or loud. I have a second alarm on my phone in case I miss the sound (it’s not super quiet, but I’m a sound sleeper). I’ve had this a week and haven’t needed the phone alarm – although I’m still using it because it reminds me that I need to get out of bed and not just sit there snuggling my kitty cat ;-) 4. It’s attractive and looks nice on the side of my bed. 5. I don’t have space for a bedside light, so I used to have to snap on a very bright overhead light as soon I woke up. It makes a great bedside clock that is very easy to turn off and on. I like that when I turn it off, it takes several seconds to reach total darkness. It’s the right amount of time to snuggle into bed. 6. It’s more stable than I expected considering the shape of it. 7. The light has a warm tint to it (unlike the regular bulb in my overhead light. The clock isn’t warm – just the color of the light when it turns on in the morning. It’s much nicer than if a regular lamp lights up (which is what my old light-up alarm clock did). CONS 1. I have to change the time’s brightness depending on if it’s day or night. If it’s dark enough for sleeping then it isn’t visible during the day or if a full light is on. This wouldn’t be a big deal if the time’s brightness setting wasn’t set in a weird spot that requires me to use two hands. 2. It takes up more space on my bedside table than my old alarm clock. The roundness means it actually takes up more space than just the space that immediately touches the table. 3. It’s stable for me, but I live alone and have an older cat. I don’t think this would be stable if I still lived in a home with children, or if I had younger cats, this would probably be knocked over regularly. When I did have a visitor in my room, it was jostled enough that to be safe I had to place the clock on its back. 4. The snooze is actually placed in a useful manner – just tap the top of the clock. However, I’m used to slapping the top of my alarm clock to snooze it (which this clock can’t handle). The clock and the sound and the light are new enough that I’m still remembering to tap instead of slap the clock, and hopefully that becomes second nature before the novelty of waking up to this clock happens. 5. It’s white. I’m not sure if it will stay white over time. It’s such a beautiful clock, and I hope that it doesn’t stain as time goes on – I’m going to take a damp cloth to it every weekend when I clean house, so hopefully this doesn’t become an issue. Overall, the PROS far outweigh the CONS for my purposes, but if I still had a rowdy home with kids and cats and lots of adults and constant clatter this would be the wrong clock for me. ## Features - YOUR OWN PERSONAL SUNRISE: Choose from 10 different brightness levels to stimulate your body so you can rise easier - NATURAL WAKE-UP: Simulated sunrise combined with gradual sound gently prepares your body for waking up while you are still asleep - SMART FEATURES: Tap to snooze and bedside lamp - MOOD AND ENERGY: Proven to give you an easy and energetic wake-up and improve your mood in the morning - MONEY BACK GUARANTEE: 90 Day No Hassle Money Back Guarantee from Philips ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00F0W1RIW | | Additional Features | Adjustable Color Temperature | | Alarm Clock | Yes | | Batteries are Included | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #308,092 in Health & Household ( See Top 100 in Health & Household ) #1,478 in Light Therapy Products #6,074 in Sales & Deals | | Brand | Philips | | Brand Name | Philips | | Color | White | | Connectivity Technology | Usb | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 7,487 Reviews | | Display Type | Digital | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00075020035998 | | Included Components | ... | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor | | Item Dimensions W x H | 7.87"W x 7.87"H | | Item Type Name | Alarm Clock with Sunrise Simulation | | Item Weight | 1.19 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Philips | | Manufacturer Contact Information | 1-866-832-4361 | | Manufacturer Part Number | HF3500/60 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | 2 year manufacturer. | | Material Type | Silicone | | Model Number | HF3500/60 | | Mounting Type | Tabletop | | Number of Items | 1 | | Operation Mode | Electrical | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Product Dimensions | 7.87"W x 7.87"H | | Room Type | Bedroom | | Shape | Round | | Size | 1 Count (Pack of 1) | | Special Feature | Adjustable Color Temperature | | Style | With Gentle Beep Wake Up Sound | | Style Name | With Gentle Beep Wake Up Sound | | Theme | Art | | UPC | 075020035998 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Base Material:** Plastic - **Bulb Base:** E26 - **Finish Type:** Polished - **Item Weight:** 1.19 Pounds - **Product Dimensions:** 4.5"D x 7"W x 7"H ## Images ![Philips Wake-up Light HF3500/60 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71MAn8TjbmL.jpg) ![Philips Wake-up Light HF3500/60 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51MgOWvd+xL.jpg) ![Philips Wake-up Light HF3500/60 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/619yA3gGYbL.jpg) ![Philips Wake-up Light HF3500/60 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31FHcg6D4HL.jpg) ![Philips Wake-up Light HF3500/60 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/514LUWUH47L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: So if the lamp burns out or is damaged the item is rendered useless?** A: Also, the LED life rating is when the light output is 70-80% of the original output (depending on the specification it is rated to). So it won't stop working in 16,000 hours, it will just be noticeably dimmer. Of course this ignores failures in the driving electronics that you risk with any electronic device. **Q: I have to sleep in a completely dark room. Can you disable the clock display while you sleep?** A: I turn the display down to the lowest level of brightness. On nights when that still isn't dark enough, I turn the clock to face the wall. **Q: Can the alarm noise be disabled? If I just want to wake up via the light, can I do that?** A: Yes, you can. My husband opened it up for me and snipped the speaker wire. I now use the light (across the room) and an alarm near my bed. It’s quite pleasant. **Q: Do each of the audio options (birds, chimes, radio) gradually fade in at alarm time, and if so, can the amount of fade in time be adjusted?** A: This model does not support radio or bird sounds. It only has a beep that gradually gets louder. The beeps progress to full loudness in about a minute. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works for this sleepy head! *by R***R on February 7, 2024* I was skeptical at first but this alarm really works!

SNOOZE!! -Able to set brightness of wake up lighting(10 settings) if you find 10 to be TOO bright to wake up to & you want to tone it down! CON'S -No battery back-up, so if power goes out, you will have to reset time & alarm!(This is just CRAZY not to have) -If using wake up light as a reading light and set it at, let's say 6, but like to wake up at setting 8, you will have to set it back to 8 once finished using it as a reading light! -No radio or sounds, if you wanted that!( Radio & nature sounds are on upgrade models) -No interchangeable light, so once it goes, you will just have the gradual sound to wake to!(Fine by me!) OVERALL Fine clock that does what it claims and makes waking up in the A.M. more tolerable! I just REALLY wish they had battery back-up on this as I get somewhat frequent power outages where I live when bad weather visits! The light, when set to 10 is REALLY bright and upset my wife the first time we used it at 10 but I dialed it back to 8 which makes her happy! I am a mid-heavy sleeper and the gradual sound is just fine for me (and we keep the clock a few feet away from bed), as other reviewers suggested the sound was not loud enough-It's more than enough for us! Lastly, Phillips, COME ON MAN-Can you guy's get battery back-up on these for AT LEAST keeping the time and gradual wake sound alarm minus the light, if nothing else! It's still a great clock that I would purchase again(at the right price)! ## Frequently Bought Together - Philips SmartSleep Wake-Up Light Therapy Alarm Clock with Sunrise Simulation, White, HF3500/60 - LEGO Icons Bonsai Tree Building Set - Artificial Bonsai Tree Plants for Home Decor, Adults Ages 18+ - Faux, Fake Plants for Table, Desk, Office - Birthday Gift for Men & Women - 10281 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1151979-philips-wake-up-light-hf3500-60](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1151979-philips-wake-up-light-hf3500-60) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
