This compact model is the most attractive of the three lights tested. Lighter sleepers found they woke more gently with less of a shock, but the heavier sleeper found the smaller light wasn't as effective as the two other larger, taller lights on test. Menu is simple and easy to navigate.

Testers liked the choice of alarm sounds and radio option. All testers said they felt they woke up more gradually and felt it was less of a shock than their usual alarm and there was no need to use the snooze function. The quick check option lets you check the light and sound settings are correct before going to bed and you can adjust them both if necessary. On the downside there is no sunset simulator and the light is quite bulky.
800 Lux. Sunrise and sunset simulator. 7 wake up sounds, MP3 player, MMC slot, reading/night light, 7 day alarm, LCD display, snooze function, security light option, power fail backup.

There's a wide choice of wake up sounds on the SD card. Testers felt they woke up more gently and it was less of a shock compared to a usual alarm, but they felt the unit was unattractive to display on their bedside table. It was easy to set and the sunset simulator and night light are useful features.
