The Zadro Natural Simulated Sunrise alarm clock offers everything one person needs to wake up properly. This alarm clock actually simulates a sunrise as you wake up allowing you to gradually wake up. The clock can help you ease from the comfort of sleep to the comfort of that first stretch of the day.
The Zadro Simulated Sunrise is not your typical loud alarm clock but is one of the more successful alarm clocks when it comes to waking people up gradually. The clock is equipped with a soft light that gradually increases as time wears on, giving your body the sense of waking up to the sunrise. The simulated sunrise can begin as early as one hour before the alarm is set to go off. This sunrise in your own bedroom gives your body and mind the refreshed feeling of waking up naturally. No more being jolted awake, just the gradual and natural waking that will help you feel ready to start the day.
There is nothing difficult about this alarm clock. The LCD display shows the time, date and indoor temperature, as well as what day of the week it is. There are five different lighting settings for the display, including off. Setting the clock and alarm is as basic as any other alarm clock, but the interface of this clock has the feeling of a previous decade. The buttons are bulky and can get stuck and worn easily.
The sunrise setting is easy to use, and you can set it to brighten 60 minutes before you wake up. Waking up gradually keeps your mind and body in sync, and this feature can help keep you energized throughout the day.
When it comes to falling asleep quickly and waking up refreshed, this alarm clock gives you what you're looking for. The simulated sunrise can be set to begin up to 60 minutes before the alarm is set to go off, and it can be set in increments of 15 minutes. The soft glow gradually wakes your mind from its restful state. There is no jarring alarm with this clock either. The alarm clock is equipped with seven relaxing sounds of nature: birds singing, brook flowing, summer night, waves on the beach, rain falling, dawn awakening, and heart beating. Waking up to these sounds can be used in conjunction with the simulated sunrise, and you can also use them with the 30-minute sleep feature to fall sleep easier.
Zadro offers a limited warranty with their product. It's only a 90-day warranty from the date of purchase. If you run into any problems with your alarm clock, you can either send it in for a return, which is subject to a 20% restocking fee, or return the clock for repair or replacement. The best way to contact Zadro is through a toll-free number or the local city number. You can also contact them through email as well.
The overall design of this clock is not bad – in fact, the domed shape of the clock works well with the simulated sunrise feature – but it lacks the more modern design that you would expect from newer technology. Additionally, the buttons are soft and can get stuck underneath the lip of the clock when you push them down. With that in mind, this clock is very easy to use and the design itself is something that can be overcome, especially considering the useful gradual waking options.
The Zadro Natural Simulated Sunrise is a one-of-a-kind alarm clock that can make waking up easy. This clock is effective and works well without any internal issues. If you're looking for help with your sleeping routine, this alarm clock – with its soothing sounds and simulated sunrise – will get you on the right track.
