Glow

Exactly what I was looking for great alarm clock and love the soft colors of the night light. Would highly recommend

I like this product very much. I liked the various night lights, and adjustability of brightness. I especially like that you can dim the time display to your preference. I also particularly like charging my cell phone and still have it within reach at night. The only difficulty I had was in setting the alarms. There are too few buttons that make it difficult, so instructions aren't very helpful. Separate buttons for alarms would be more useful. Also, I especially like that it doesn't take up a lot of space on my night stand. Good product. I would buy it again.

I bought it for my wife and she loves it. The only problem she's had is you have to put your phone on it exactly right or it doesn't charge

I have been using an iHome product for several years, but got tired of the buttons and LEDs failing on multiple models, so this time around, I was determined to *not* buy another iHome, especially after reading some of the reviews on their newest models that talk about the same issues. (e.g. their TimeBoost iBTW41)After a month, I am pretty happy with the i-box GlowPros:* The snooze button has raised bumps - simple, but very important!* The wireless charger has worked pretty well . . . only once I woke up and the phone wasn't fully charged, so now I'm careful to make sure the phone is centered on the dock.* I like the ability to use/see the phone while it is on the charging dock* No functionality is obstructed when the phone is on the charging dock like some other units* I like the night-light (glow) feature, but wish it would remember my color choice* It has the ability to turn clock LEDs all the way off* The built in sound effects is a nice touch, e.g. white-noise, water, birds, frogsCons:* The buttons can be a bit confusing, probably not enough buttons, as they tried to re-use buttons for multiple purposes, and sometimes not consistent, e.g. use "next" button while updating the time, but use the "Alarm" button while updating the alarm time.* You can't change clock brightness during snooze. I sleep with the clock LEDs off, but when my alarm goes off in the morning, I usually snooze it several times. I am *not* able to turn the clock back on while snoozing (again re-use of the same button)* Similarly, if you are falling asleep to music on a timer, be sure to set your wakeup alarm first, otherwise same button problem* Waking up to sound effects is OK, it starts softly, but gets a bit too loud pretty quickly. I don't think there is a way to set the max volume in this mode. Also the sound loop is pretty short. In the end, waking to the sound of a trickling stream of water is not as relaxing as you might expect. e.g. my reaction waking up to it the first time was, "Yikes, what's that noise?!"* The sound quality not as good as iHome* The radio reception not as good as iHome* You have to manually set the time on this unit* The buttons feel a little cheap, snooze button has a strange double-click feel towards the back* Not too much difference in the clock LED brightness levels (4 levels + all the way off)* LED time is relatively small from across the room (but this is understandable given the space taken up by the vertical phone dock)The list of Cons looks long here, but I am being nit-picky just for your information.Overall, I am glad I purchased this, and still glad I selected it over any iHome model.I plan to update this review if there are ever any reliability issues.Update after 2 months: I find my phone *not* fully charged once or twice a week, even though I am careful to center it (iPhone Xs) on the dock. Maybe offset left or right would be better? I don't know. :-(

It is a bit complex to get set as there are multi-function buttons that do different things depending on the function you are in. Radio has multiple presets you can program. Sound machine has 4 sounds and the time for each loop in the sounds are as short as 3 seconds so you may be able hear the loops repeating which can produce a cyclical sound which could result in the opposite effect for which you got the white noise machine in the first place. The display can be darkened to some extent but even at the dimmest it will light up the room at least once your eyes have adjusted to the dark.Biggest complaints are that the night light resets to the white color no matter what it was on when you shut it off. The sound machine resets to the first sound so when you turn it on you may have to change the sound to what you want. There appears to only be one volume setting so if you use the sound machine and radio for the alarm you may have to set the volume for the sound machine quite high so you can hear it and then when the radio goes off it is quite loud. Then until you stop the alarm or hit snooze, the radio will get progressively louder to the point of annoying. If you do have the sound machine on and the alarm goes off and you hit snooze the sound machine will not come back on.Update 1/21/24 - Returning as the short loops of white noise/nature sounds creates a cyclical noise which is distracting and not calming. Also one volume setting means that to have a quiet nature sound running to fall to sleep means the alarm volume is quite high and then it increases volume every couple of seconds. Very annoying.

Easy & has good sound

Needed a nicer looking clock, so this fits the bill. Probably will never use the radio or alarm. However, the charger works great! Great purchase!

I really like this clock but I was a little skeptical after some of the reviews. The only reason I got this was because I needed a new digital clock and the wireless charger was just a bonus. I don’t use it for an alarm clock but I do like that I can use Bluetooth and play music from my phone off of it. It did fully charge my phone overnight even with a case on it and it’s a good size. My only complaint would be that it does not work with just the batteries, it does need to be plugged in.
