Newest Review: ... feeling just as tired as before. For £15, I was disappointed. I was glad that I'd bought it from Avon though as you are ... more

 ... able to return any item, even if it has been used. Unsurprisingly, I did just that. I therefore cannot recommend the Avon Sunrise Alarm as it is a huge disappointment and is completely ineffective. I can't say that I'll try another brand as I don't think that they are worth so much money, I'll probably just continue to leave the landing light on at night as I think that this does the job just as well....more

Avon Sunrise Alarm: Still waiting for that sunrise. (882 words)

Rating:

After reading a few reviews on these types of alarms I decided that I really, really wanted one! Most of them were really overpriced though (around the £100 mark!) so I didn't look into it any further. I was very pleased to see that Avon had brought out a more reasonably priced version. I ordered it when it was on offer at £15, the usual price (and current price) is £25, which is still a bargain in comparison. The sunrise alarm clock claims to begin with a dim glow, which gradually increases to allow you to wake up feeling 'refreshed'. It is a different model to the one pictured and is a tall cylindrical object which has a silver plastic base and ...  Read the complete review

Wakes you up, but not in the way you'd like. (371 words)

I was rather excited when I saw this lamp. I hoped it might be the answer for myself and my partner, two comfirmed slug a beds. Alas, 'twas not to be. The sunrise alarm clock has been returned; quite frankly the best thing about it was the Avon no-quibbles returns policy. My first impression was that it looked far better in the photo. In the glossy photo it looks... well, not classy exactly, but alright. In the flesh, it's so ugly you wouldn't want it in your bedroom. The display is large and easy to read, but obviously cheap and low quality. Combined with the silver-effect plastic finish, it looks like something you'd pick up in the pound shop. The word ...  Read the complete review

Avon Sunrise Alarm: ** Winter Sunshine For A Tenner *** (932 words)

You know what it's like getting out of bed on winter mornings. The heating's not on yet, it's dark outside and the shrill jarring alarm clock sets your teeth on edge and sends you stumbling into the bathroom with your eyes glued shut. I started trying to make life more comfortable for myself last September, looking at the Philips sunrise alarm in John Lewis. The display model felt cheap and nasty, the staff had no idea how to even set the time on it, I hated the clock face and size and I left the shop feeling I'd saved the best part of £100. The Lumie Bodyclock seemed a good alternative, but this was bulky, fiddly and everything else I was desperate to ...  Read the complete review

Is this the best way to wake up? (257 words)

When I stumbled across the Avon Sunrise alarm in a catalogue, I was intrigued by the sight of it, and so decided to have about it. Seemed a great idea to me, as I hate nothing more than the sudden Shriek of our normal alarm clock at the crack of dawn, especially in the dark winter months. Priced at just £10 it seemed too good to be true! Before ordering the Alarm, I decided to search about on the internet to see if I could find anything similar, and came across a similar thing made by Philips, but the only obvious difference was the price of the Philips Alarm which was very close to 10 times more!! This made my mind up instantly, and I ordered the Avon Sunrise Alarm ...  Read the complete review

Avon Sunrise Alarm: Too temperamental (340 words)

When I saw this on the Avon website last year just before christmas, I thought great! £10, what a fantastic gift for someone at Christmas. I actually ordered two of these, one for my mom and one for a family friend. The idea is great: Set the alarm for the desired time and 15 minutes before hand the light will gradually get brighter and get to its brightest at the specified time. Your alarm will then sound off just like a normal alarm. The good thing about this is it is a great idea and is far cheaper than most other's you can find. The next cheapest option was a Philips one at £21.99. This product is aimed at people who find it difficult ...  Read the complete review
